Reading from stream failed - mysql_native_password error

Question

I have been facing the following error intermittently.

Authentication to host \'127.0.0.1\' for user \'root\' using method \'mysql_native_password\' failed w

Answer 1

Guys I tried this: "SslMode=None" in the connection string, but if you need SSL then read this: http://www.voidcn.com/article/p-phfoefri-bpr.html

here is a sample connection string that works:

connectionString="Server=192.168.10.5;Database=mydata;Uid=root;Pwd=****;SslMode=None" 

Hope this helps
