Title: MySQL Error on Windows 2k Server please help !!!
Post by: WindScar on January 24, 2006, 06:14:19 PM
IBM NetVista, 2.4 P4 512MB PC3200

Running:
Windows 2000 Server Standard
IIS 5.0
PHP 4.4.1  from php's main site
MySQL 4.1 Server from MySQL's Site
ImageMagick (Latest Windows n00bzor version) << the install they say to click if your unsure
Coppermine Gallery 1.4.3

PHP pages work in IIS, and presumably MySQL works, it was running and I've created:
A database named: gallery
A user named: coppermine with a password obviously and GRANT all privileges per some instrucions I found on php's site about how to make a database from the command line.

When running coppermine's install.php I get the following:
"• • • ERROR • • • 
The following errors were encountered and need to be corrected first:


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Could 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

"

The information used in the mysql section is:
MySQL Host                   localhost
MySQL Database Name    gallery
MySQL Username            coppermine
MySQL Password            thepassword
MySQL table prefix         thedefault
(default value is OK; do not use dots!) 



Any help or insights would be great......... Im so used to running this stuff on Linux I usually exclusively use phpmyadmin lol    Please help !!!
