Hi. A newbie. I installed/upgraded all the proper (at least that I know
of) apps needed to run ruby on rails on a mac, but keep receiving mysql
errors. The default page works fine, but as soon as I try a simple
"hello world" controller that I'm testing, I keep getting different
errors.

Current one after researching forums and trying to troubleshoot the
problem, I'm stuck on a "Status: 500 Internal Server Error
  Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server;
consider upgrading MySQL client" I am upgraded to the latest. What
gives? And I did assign a password to the root and "sudo gem install
mysql -- --with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql'

My mac is os x 10.5.7
Ruby 1.8.7
Rails 2.3.3
Gem 1.3.5
MySQL 5.1.37

Here's an excerpt copy of the error from the development.log:
!\ FAILSAFE /!\  Tue Aug 04 08:10:08 -0700 2009
  Status: 500 Internal Server Error
  Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server;
consider upgrading MySQL client
    /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mysql.rb:453:in `read'
    /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/mysql.rb:130:in `real_connect'
    
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.3/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/mysql_adapter.rb:576:in
`connect'
    
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.3/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/mysql_adapter.rb:204:in
`initialize'

I have also properly updated the database.yml and have added the root
password

Any thoughts? Appreciated.
