Hi Guys, I am running winxp with mysql. Seeing this is a home machine there is no workstation just one computer which I guess at this point is acting as my server and client for mysql. I am just getting acquainted with mysql so I have been playing around with both 4.1 and 5.0. Neither database is installed as a service on my windoze box, essentially I have two folders one is mysql4 the other mysql5. When I want to use one of the databases I rename the folder to mysql and then it makes use of my.ini and everything works just fine. My problem is accessing mysql 5.0 from perl,php etc... I get client authentication protocol errors. If I run command line everything works perfect but as soon as perl or php try to access the 5.0 database it bombs. What dll is responsible for this so i'll know where to find it and make sure it is the appropriate version(I'm assuming at this point both php/perl are seeing a 4.1 dll) Or is this a perl /php problem where they have a specific dll with them and I need to adjust their dll's.
Thanks!
