You’re right. My tests are wrong. I simplified them for the bug report, but it do works like this.
So, another test, which fails here. For the password, use a long sequence. I generated mine with "pwgen 128 1". Then, try to connect to this database
with the user with a long password.

If you try with "mariadb -h 127.0.0.1 -u testbug -p<the long pass> testbug" it seems to work. But, if you use the other way "mariadb -h 127.0.0.1 -u
testbug -p testbug" and when you’re asked, you copy / paste the passphrase : access denied.

It looks like something is wrong with the copy / paste. Do you have the same issue ?

Thanks
