I have just installed MySql on Win XP and am attempting to run a php script to
create some databases. The script works fine on FreeBSD 5.3 running
mysql-client-5.0.11 and mysql-server-5.0.11.
MySQL has been installed on windows XP using a download of
mysql-5.0.13-rc-win32.zip. Test.php reports php version 4.3.1.0 and is
installed with ZendStudio which I am currently testing on win XP as I cannot
yet get any version of Zend later than 3.x to run on FreeBSD.
The username for mysql is 10 chars with a password of 8 chars and is able to
login successfully from the command line.
However when attempting to login via the script I get the following error:
"Error while connecting to MySQL: Client does not support authentication
protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client."
I have searched the mysql website and located an article which shows reference
to this error indicating that the client may need to be upgraded but as I am
using the mysql-5.0.13-rc-win32.zip package I am cautious about assuming that
that is the actual cause.
I am curious whether it is something to do with the php version.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Please ask for additional information you think might be helpful
Thanks in advance
