Morning all, as per the title I have been unable to get the latest version of SlimServer working with my existing MySQL instance.
Slimserver 6.5.3 works fine, and 6.5.4 works fine using the embedded instance, but adding the db lines to my pref file ( see http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?ExistingMySQLInstance), I get the following error; $ ./slimserver.pl 2007-09-18 10:10:03.4143 ERROR: DBI Connection failed: DBI connect('database=slimserver:mysql_socket=/tmp/mysql.sock','slimserver',...) failed: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client at /data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/CPAN/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 652 2007-09-18 10:10:03.4147 ERROR: Backtrace follows: 2007-09-18 10:10:03.4151 Backtrace: frame 0: Slim::Schema::Storage::throw_exception (/data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/CPAN/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 658) frame 1: DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::_connect (/data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/CPAN/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 616) frame 2: DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::_populate_dbh (/data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/CPAN/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 543) frame 3: DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ensure_connected (/data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/Slim/Schema/Storage.pm line 28) frame 4: (eval) (/data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/Slim/Schema/Storage.pm line 28) frame 5: Slim::Schema::Storage::dbh (/data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/Slim/Schema.pm line 118) frame 6: Slim::Schema::init (/data/tmp/SlimServer_v6.5.4/Slim/Music/Info.pm line 71) frame 7: Slim::Music::Info::init (./slimserver.pl line 373) frame 8: main::init (./slimserver.pl line 450) frame 9: main::main (./slimserver.pl line 1076) 2007-09-18 10:10:03.7261 ERROR: Couldn't connect to database! Fatal error: [] Exiting! If I revert back to my 6.5.3 instance it works fine again. The error suggests to my inexpert eye that SlimServer is trying to connect using an old protocol which it wasn't trying to do in previous versions. Has something changed between SlimServer versions that I should be aware of?
