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

it's quite easy: you have to use normal root account as you/ve registered while installation process or, for sure, change password settings for root, then:

1) login as root with correct password to mysql console
2) enter command
SET PASSWORD FOR peter@localhost = OLD_PASSWORD('something');"

BUT!:
There is something strange for me: first time I entered command, it failed, and after changing database (use my_db) and entering it again everything was OK. The "mysql_connect(): Client does not.." doesn't appear. I don't know why because in PHP API mysql_select_db() is made after successfull connection...
