Hey there,

I’ve just been toying around with MS Azure a bit and I’ve been unable to connect to an Azure Database for MySQL server with Ecto/Mariaex.

When I try launch my application or run migrations, it crashes with the following error message:

09:44:48.179 [error] GenServer #PID<0.175.0> terminating

I haven’t been able to look too much into it but it seems that the binary string is a response from the MySQL server; the binary in the error message begins with << 254 >> (as seems to be expected by Mariaex) and then continues with the string mysql_native_password.

If anyone has come across this issue before I’d be interested in how they resolved it before I spend hours trying to troubleshoot it further :slight_smile:

@wmnnd did you find a solution in the meantime?

Yes, I decided not to use Azure :wink:
