I'm using
MySQL v4.1.10.a on Windows XP
Activestate Perl v5.8.6.811
DBI v1.47
This is my script:
----------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use DBI;
my $database = "bg_test";
my $hostname = "localhost";
my $port = 3306;
my $user = "root";
my $password = "msqlborkur";
my $dsn = "DBI:mysql:database=$database;host=$hostname;port=$port";
my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, $user, $password);
----------------------------------------
When I run the script I get this error message:
DBI connect('database=bg_test;host=localhost;port=3306','root',...) failed:
Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider
upgrading MySQL client at test.pl line 15
----------------------------------------
I hope you have the time to look into this.
