Funny. I was just readin about this on the www.mysql.com web site. Under the
documentation section about upgrading form 3.23 to 4.0. The exact URL is
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Upgrading-from-3.23.html
Ensure that you don't have any MySQL clients that use shared libraries (like the Perl
DBD-mysql mode). If you do, you should recompile them, because the data structures
used in `libmysqlclient.so' have changed. The same applies to other MySQL interfaces
as well, such as the Python MySQLdb module.
MySQL 4.0 will work even if you don't do the above, but you will not be able to use
the new security privileges that MySQL 4.0 and you may run into problems when
upgrading later to MySQL 4.1 or newer

Just installed mysql 4.1.
The same perl/DBIscripts which worked fine on 4.0 now failing toconnect
with the following error:
DBI connect('host=localhost;database=webdb','webdev',...) failed: Client
does not support authentication protocol requested by server. Consider
upgrading MySQL client at ./intro7.pl line 7
Any ideas, anyone?
Thank you.
