I have a server running Percona Server 5.7 and enabled PAM LDAP authentication. I can connect with LDAP user from:

  • mysql client
  • MySQL Workbench 8.0 on Linux (Ubuntu) with dialog.so plugin copied from Percona Server 8.0 distribution.
  • MySQL Workbench 6.3 on Windows with dialog.dll plugin copied from MariaDB 10.5 distribution to this path: C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\lib\plugin

But, I can not make it work with MySQL Workbench 8.0 on Windows. With Procmon I can see that the plugin is expected to be found at: C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\lib\plugin, but when I copy the dialog.dll file I get Error: Authentication plugin 'dialog' can not be loaded: Incompatible client plugin interface

I have tried with dialog.dll file from MariaDB 10.2 - 10.5 distributions, none of them seems to work. I have tried also with the dialog.dll file from HeidiSQL distribution, but that one doesn't work either. Percona doesn't have distribution for Windows.

Anyone have some solution?

  • Thanks, but as I can see on the link the post doesn't have any information about PAM, LDAP, Workbench or the `dialog.dll` plugin, so it is not useful. – Perica Jakimov Dec 15 '20 at 22:37
