Seeking Assistance with DataGrip Connection Issues to MySQL Database

In my attempts to connect DataGrip with a MySQL database, I've encountered persistent errors despite following standard setup procedures diligently. Are there others who have faced similar connection challenges with DataGrip and MySQL? Could overlooked settings or configurations within DataGrip be contributing to this issue? Additionally, are there any known bugs or limitations in DataGrip that might cause such connection hiccups?

Furthermore, I'm exploring ways to enable more detailed logging or diagnostic information in DataGrip to aid in troubleshooting this issue further. Any insights or suggestions from the community would be greatly appreciated in resolving this connection puzzle. Thank you for your assistance and expertise in advance!
