Hi @ManjotS. Sorry for the delayed response. I tried to reproduce the error you get, but I'm gettting another error using a similar set of flags. With the set flags provided, you should get another type of error:
Error: Error 1046: No database selected
Looks like you're having a problem related to the permissions set on your database. Can you add the database flag --db, please and see what happens?
I created and defined a table in a mysql docker container I was able to open a connection setting the provided credentials (myuser and 5@klkbN#ABC'). I ran out of ideas, if you have more information, don't hesitate to drop it in this discussion.
I'm clossing this because of the lack of response. If he problem persists, feel free to open a new issue.
