Consider upgrading MySQL client
This is because MySQL 4.1 has a new protocol that is not compatible with the old (3.23 and 4.0) protocol. There is no support for this protocol in PHP 4.3.2 and will unlikely ever be in the 4.3.x series of PHP. PHP5 already includes it but it is not ready yet. So, in other words, you have two opportunities: 1) Revert back to MySQL 3.23 or 4.0 2) Use the (unstable and not yet released) PHP5 from CVS. http://snaps.php.net have pre-compiled snapshots for Windows. Beware! that this is a CVS snapshot we are talking about. You should not expect it to be bug-free. You should not expect to even install properly. You are totally on your own, and you are expected to fix problems that you find in the C source code yourself. But then again, that doesn't mean that it cannot work. I have had it running on Linux for quite a while now with very few problems. I recommend going with option (1) since you seem to say you don't have very much experience setting PHP up. -- Best regards, Per Lundberg / Capio ApS Phone: +46-18-4186040 Fax: +46-18-4186049 Web: http://www.nobolt.com
