MySQL new user access denied even after giving privileges?

After creating a user and giving all privileges to the user, you need to FLUSH PRIVILEGES to set up and want the new settings to work correctly.

The syntax is as follows −

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Here is the query to create a new user which has the name ‘Bob’ in my case. The query to create a new user is as follows −

mysql> CREATE USER 'Bob'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '123456';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.56 sec)

Now given all privileges to user Bob −

mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'Bob'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;

mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.14 sec)

Now here I am using user Bob with password 123456. The snapshot is as follows −
