ERROR 1819 (HY000): Your password does not satisfy the current policy requirements
mysql> ALTER USER `db_example`@`%` IDENTIFIED BY "qeW0zdszb\tZjt4o";
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) MySQL version:  5.7  
 two passwords  qeW0zdszb\ vZjt4o  and  qeW0zdszb\ tZjt4o  are distinguished only by \ v  or \ t  
 Why do passwords containing \ v  report errors? What are the restrictions on setting a password in MySQL? 
 when using Spring to connect to the database, if the password has \  characters, the configuration also has to escape.
