Hey Coffee,
have the same problem and for sure i used the root PW of mariadb 
- the root PW works fine with
mariadb -r root -p
= login granted
When i run
bench new-site mysite.org
i get the same error like elsayhsoft
# bench new-site erp.mysite.org
WARN: bench is installed in editable mode!
This is not the recommended mode of installation for production. Instead, install the package from PyPI with: `pip install frappe-bench`
