I already tested numerous solutions but none of them worked.

The database actually exists

You can download source project Here .

Answer 1

The name of database is wrong. Check whether it is another name or case.

Answer 2

So I tried to fix the error myself but there is another one

 Authentication to host 'localhost' for user 'root' using method 'caching_sha2_password' failed with message: Unknown database 'mysql80'

Answer 3

Your screenshot does not show that a database named mysql57 actually exists. The error message is correct: the database name you're trying to use is wrong.

Try changing to Database = brawldatabase; in your connection string.
