If you are getting such errors as "Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in XXX line 7 Could not connect: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client" Such warning messages are due to the new encryption method used by MySQL 4.1 and above. To solve this run the SQL command : set password for username@localhost = old_password('password'); Substitute username and password for your own. | |
