EASY SOLUTION ! : Re: "mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client"

Hi folks,

the recommendation from Theophilus might work; I just SUCCESSFULLY tried an older, much easier solution from user mgladds

( http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,6400,10611#msg-10611 ):

just insert into my.ini below of:

[client]
port=3306

the new line:

old_passwords

Save my.ini and restart the server.

This did NOT work for as I inserted it at the beginning of my.ini, but it worked FINE as I inserted it exactly there!

Hope it helps!
