Hi Dimi,
I think mysql 8 is the new version of mysql. I don't know if there a
exists a stable release or only a beta.
My thoughts are that the last php-version maybe can handle the mentioned
authentication method or you have
to try to compile the handling for the mysql-plugin in the php-mysqldriver.
Maybe the question about enhancing the php is relation on the
Linuxdistribution. Here I mean an additional rpm if you use Redhat,
Fedora, Centos, Suse...
or .deb if you use Debian, Ubuntu or such of these.
To mix a tarball with one of these packages I think it is to difficult
in this case.

Ruprecht

Hi Ruprecht,
yes, if a provider not changed the default authentication (mysql_nativ_password) there is
nothing customers have to do, because the default authentication on mysql 5.7 and 10.5 is
the same (SHA-1 based).
Mysql changed this starting from version 8, were the default authentication now is the plugin caching_sha2_password.
Mariadb not changed the default, but recommends to use a safer authentication method like the ed25519-plugin.
I would like to use it, but then i have the problem that PHP (the Mysql nativ driver) cames with an
error like "The server requested authentication method unknown to the client".
So i would be glad if this authentication method would be implemented.

Dimi
