#23252 [Bgs]: Incorrect MySQL client version compiled in PHP

ID: 23252 Updated by: georg@php.net Reported By: j dot katarski at ecu dot edu dot au Status: Bogus Bug Type: MySQL related Operating System: Windows XP SP1 PHP Version: 4.3.2RC1 Assigned To: georg New Comment: In MySQL 4.1 they changed the authentication protocol and password() function. To use 3.23 client library you must copy the mysql-tables from an older version into your datadirectory. As long 4.1 is still alpha we cannot provide a bundled library. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-23 03:12:52] sniper@php.net That's what you get when using beta/alpha software. Use a stable mysql release and it will all be fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-23 00:44:05] j dot katarski at ecu dot edu dot au <? echo mysql_get_client_info(); $conn = mysql_connect("server.with.mysql4.1", "username", "password"); ?> Returns the following information: 3.23.49<br /> <b>Warning</b>: mysql_connect() [<a href='http://www.php.net/function.mysql-con nect'>function.mysql-connect</a>]: Client does not support authentication protoc ol requested by server.
