Apache, PHP, MySQL Setup Problem (Newbie Problem)

Fri Dec 17, 2004 11:28 pm

I'm trying to setup Apache (v. 1.3), PHP (v. 4.3.9), and MySQL(v. 4.1) on my PC, but I've hit a snag. When trying to connect to the database, I get this error:
Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\includes\dbconnect.php on line 1


After doing some researching, I've found that I need to upgrade something, but I'm not positive what. Am I supposed to upgrade MySQL, and to what version? Or am I supposed to upgrade Apache? I know this is a Newbie question, but I'm pretty much just starting out. :oops:

upgrade it all. why would you use old versions?

If your doing this just for a server then i recommend apache2triad or EasyPHP.

Ok, I'll have to do it tomorrow and see what happens. :) Why didn't I do that in the first place? :P
