Excellent...I think I am almost there...and thanks to everyone that responded.
Now I am currently running MySql 4.1.10 and dont really want to upgrade yet as
this is a large db with many other services using it and I need to test all
sorts of other applications before upgrading, so is there a way to resolve this
issue..below is the /tmp/slimserver.log entry after pointing to the existing db
and trying to restart ss.
Carp::Clan::__ANON__(): DBI Connection failed: DBI
connect('hostname=127.0.0.1;port=3306;database=Slimserver:mysql_socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock','stork',...)
failed: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server;
consider upgrading MySQL client at
/usr/local/slimserver/CPAN/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 652
