Django attempting to connect to mysql without password even when password has been provided

[Coder Dude]

This is the code in my settings.py :

import pymysql

pymysql.install_as_MySQLdb()

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'learn001',
        'USER': 'test01',
        'PASSWORD': 'test01', #Password is also test01


    }
}

Yet , it is throwing the following error :

django.db.utils.OperationalError: (1045, "Access denied for user 'test01'@'localhost' (using password: NO)".

I don't understand why it is trying to connect without a password. 

It works properly if I create a user with no password and then provide it's username.

Hello! What version of Django are you running?

You may need to provide extra info such as host and port

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',

        'NAME': 'mydatabase',
        'USER': 'mydatabaseuser',
        'PASSWORD': 'mypassword',
        'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
        'PORT': '5432',
    }
}

Hope it helps

I tried that. Still Doesn't work. I am using django 2.0. 

I found a stackoverflow thread which suggests that it might be a bug with pymysql along with mysql8.

It works properly when i create a user without password and provide it's credentials.
