Hi Don,

This error is shown when the MySQL database is storing passwords in the old format you can read more information about it here:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/old-client.html

The driver for .NET 6.6.2 and further has deprecated the support for this old format and it is highly recommended that you use the new format since the old password was not secure. You can check the way to manage the password settings here:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/assigning-passwords.html

please check it and let us you if you have any other question.
