Hallo Marc, I sympathize with ya!!! The version of MySQL you are using has quite a number of bugs and even if i was to give you the solution, you would still end up with more problems. What i would recommend is do away with the mysql you are using and start using the most stable of mysqls - 4.3. You can download EASYPHP1-8 for youself, if provides you with mysql 4.3 along with PHP and the gr8 Apache Web Server ready to use. And the totally awesome part is that it is totally free (GNU). Keep it cool marc. The Guru
Hi all, Just upgraded MySQL on my development machine to 4.1 and get the familiar error "Client does not support authentication protocol...". A bit of Googling learns this is expected behaviour and all clients in use should be instructed to use the new protocol (including PHP). However, on none of the hosts used for hosting client sites this has ever been a problem yet (most still use 3.23...) and I don't want to be obliged to change things everytime I move a finished site from my machine to the clients host, so I prefer to stick with using the old password. This is possible: the documentation tells me to just start the service with 'mysqld --old-passwords' as option. However, as per the registry, MySQL starts automatically as a service when windoze starts. Without this option. Now every restart of the machine I can stop the freshly started mysqld service and start it again with the --old-passwords option but it should be possible to do this leaving the appropriate info in the registry. Anybody 'been there, done that'? Where to put what in the registry with this effect?
