I'm not sure if the following will help, but I did notice something
that may be related in the release notes for 18.05 here:

  https://koha-community.org/koha-18-05-released/

Here is what they say about this issue:

  No more login with the database user

  It is no longer possible to use the database user to login into Koha.
  You should first create a superlibrarian patron and use it for logging in.
  [...]
  It is no longer possible to use the database user (defined in koha-conf.xml) to login into Koha.
  You should first create a superlibrarian patron and use it for logging in.
  See the script misc/devel/create_superlibrarian.pl

This was discussed in this bug:
