Hi all, I have installed WAMP package from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAMP. I have even installed the following packages from their respective sites. 1. Apache 1.3.22 2. PHP 5.0.2 3. MySQL 4.1.12a The machine on which all is installed have WinXP pro with P4 processor. Then I followed the instruction found at http://www.puremango.co.uk/cm_wamp_97.php to make Apache, PHP and MySql run together. PHP works fine but when I try to run the following mysql.php script. Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in C:\Apache2\htdocs\test\connect.php on line 3 Warning: mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in C:\Apache2\htdocs\test\connect.php on line 7 Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client What is missing? /rsasalm

Hi again, One more thing to mention. I have set the password as below. ************ USE mysql; UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD("flibble"); FLUSH PRIVILEGES; exit; ************* I suppose that both Mysqld and Mysql should be running(correct me if I am wrong). I can see in the task manager that MYsqld is running but when I try to run mysql via dos command I get the following error: C:\mysql-4.1.12a-win32\bin>mysql ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: N O) Any comments. thanks regards /rsasalm

about your 2nd post, try: C:\mysql-4.1.12a-win32\bin>mysql -u root -p :::: about your first post, sorry I don't have a sure answer. Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in... I had that message before when I try to connect to MySQL 4.1+ by using PHP4. But as you already use PHP5, I can't see the problem :( --- Site of the Day
