Installing MySQL on PHP 4.11/5

[Bolter99]

Ive been trying for ages to get this working but it always returns the error message "Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\index.php on line 3
Could not connect: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client"

I have connectors installed and running. No idea whats wrong lol.

Thanks in advance for any help!

To ease down the pain, try out easyPHP .

Sounds like the PHP MySQL Driver in the windows system files need updating

try Installing http://www.php.net/downloads.php PHP 5.0.4 and remember to move the PHP MySQL Driver to the system files or PHP connections to MySQL will not work as PHP no longer has built in MySQL support it's now an extension.

and make sure u read the readme

and from a server technicians point of view Easy PHP is an awful tool, it sets everything up well and good but does not compile/configure to the systems ideal set up
