Hey @DevMakoto. Are you running Mysql or MariaDB?
@SamuelMwangiW install mariadb with larasail setup mariadb php80
I suspect the issue is caused by MariaDB using the unix_socket plugin for root by default. Kindly try running sudo mysql using the larasail user (I.e after larasail enter).
Once in the mysql shell, run the query below:
ALTER USER root@localhost IDENTIFIED VIA mysql_native_password;I will PR a fix
Thx
