[Squirrel-sql-users] Squirrel SQL Client 4.1

[Duane H. <dua...@gm...>]

OS: Linux Mint V20
DB: MySQL Server V8

I have been trying to connect Squirrel to a MySQL database and get the
following error:

Unexpected Error occurred attempting to open an SQL connection.
class javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert:
protocol_version

Based on the error, I have limited MySQL protocol from TLSv1.3 to 1.2, to
1.1 and to 1.0 and tried to connect Squirrel at each level to no avail.

Both MySQL and Squirrel are installed on the localhost. I have downloaded
and am using the latest MySQL Connector/J driver. I can connect to the DB
with MySQL Workbench and phpMyAdmin.

Has anyone been successful in getting these two to play together?

Thanks in advance for any assistance provided.
