Newbe problem,

I have MySQL 5x and Coppermine 1.43.  I have registered and have the MySQL instance running but when I launch install.php and fill in teh answers I get this error.

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

Wow that was fast response.  Fixed that now I see  "Unable to write config file 'include/config.inc.php'"

Suggestions?

The first error was calling my database instance Gallery but it was actually called MySQL

The second error I fixed by manually editing the config.inc.php file with the new login name.

Sorry for wasting anyones time.  I have been trying to get this going since last night!
