    Description

      Using Java 8 and MariaDB Connector/J 2.0.2-SNAPSHOT to connect to a MySQL 5.1.73 database results in an "access denied" error. The connection is created like this:

      try (Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, new String(password))) {
        System.out.printf("Connection class:%n%s%n", c.getClass().getName());
      }
      

      where url is something like this:

      "jdbc:mariadb://127.0.0.1:3306/MYDB"
      

      and the result is the following stack trace:

      Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLInvalidAuthorizationSpecException: Could not connect: Access denied for user 'luke'@'127.0.0.1' (using password: YES)

      I also tried appending &passwordCharacterEncoding=UTF-8 to url, and another time &passwordCharacterEncoding=ISO-8859-1, neither of which helped.

      Trying the same using MySQL Connector/J 5.1.42 (with mysql instead of mariadb in url) works fine.

      Connecting using the mysql command line program from MySQL 5.7.18 works too, and, even though I doubt it matters, the \s command shows the following character set information:

      Server characterset:	latin1
      Db     characterset:	latin1
      Client characterset:	utf8
      Conn.  characterset:	utf8
