login to mysql and run these commands

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON . TO ‘root’@’%’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘your_password’ WITH GRANT OPTION;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON . TO ‘root’@‘localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘your_password’ WITH GRANT OPTION;

it solved the same issue at our end.

I found the solution!

Once the MariaDB is secured, log in to the MariaDB console with the following command:

mysql -u root -p

After login, change the MariaDB authentication plugin with the following command:

MariaDB [(none)]>USE mysql; MariaDB [(none)]>UPDATE user SET plugin='mysql_native_password' WHERE User='root';

Next, flush the privileges and exit from the MariaDB shell with the following command:

MariaDB [(none)]> FLUSH PRIVILEGES; 
MariaDB [(none)]> EXIT;

Hi, I’m having a syntax error. I doubled check it and re-entry, am I missing something?

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'r00tp@ss' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Wow! Thank you so much for the quick response. Apology, I’m a newbie in mySQL.
