PHP5 snapshots have an extension called mysqli which is for MySQL 4.1 functions (mysqli_*). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-17 00:54:45] j dot katarski at ecu dot edu dot au Using a MySQL 4.1 database, it's as simple as: <? $conn = mysql_connect(); ?> This is will immediately fail with: 1249 - Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server. Consider upgrading MySQL client This is a problem with a lot of applications, I believe due to changes with mysqllib.dll. The solution for a MySQL driver I use, was to recompile, using the new MySQL headers and new mysqllib.dll ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23252&edit=1
