Title: a mySQL error
Post by: siom on March 12, 2005, 11:05:29 AM
Hello
I'm trying to install Coppermine 1.3.2 on my pc. I've installed Apache 2.0.53 server and MySQL 4.1.10 and I created a database. When I try to install Coppermine I get the following error message:

QuoteCould not create a mySQL connection, please check the SQL values entered
MySQL error was : Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client

However data provided in the following fields is correct.

MySQL Host (localhost is usually OK)   
MySQL Database Name   
MySQL Username   
MySQL Password   


Does anybody know how I can solve it? Thank you.

You shouldn't use mySQL4.1 (it's not fully recommended for use on production systems anyway) - see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/old-client.html
I suggest you downgrade to mySQL 4.0
