MySQL users problem

Post by Trenchant »

I keep getting this error when I try to connect to my MySQL database.


Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in c:\appserv\www\hosting\celestria\public\inc.functions.php on line 13

When I try and connect with Root everything works fine. But when I use the user Celestria(new use I just added for use of only 1 database) I get this error.

Any idea's of what the problem is? To connect I'm simply using mysql_connect(); with a username, password, and server

that looks an aweful lot like the error that happens when someone upgraded the server to >4.1 and you're using a client for <4.1 ... hmmmm

It was installed using appserv. Not the newest version they released but the version before.
