I've recently upgraded my mysql to v 4.1.1 (on win nt 4.0) and set the
Passwords in the user table to the mysql Password() function.
Now, this doesn't work anymore when call from a php web script (which is a
good thing, cause it's plain text):
mysql_connect ("localhost", "theID", "thePassord");
gives me this error:
Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server ...
Since my mysql.mysql user table now has the 41 bit encrypted passwords
stored...how to I connect with my php scripts?
I've tried md5(), sha1()...but they don't generate the same 41 bit encrypted
password.
Anyone have a suggestion?
You need to use the mysqli extension with MySQL 4.1+
