Topic: MySQL

I get this error:

An error occured on line 58 in file /home/Site/public_html/zenko/legs/punBB/include/dblayer/mysql.php.

PunBB reported: Unable to connect to MySQL server. MySQL reported: Access denied for user 'punBB'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

the DB and user DB info is correct. Never had this issue before.

and I get this:

PunBB reported: Unable to connect to MySQL server. MySQL reported: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client

Re: MySQL

That usually happens when you upgrade myql.
version 4.1 uses a different Paswword encryption method.
As long as you do not touch the old password entries everything will function, but once you enter a new one the old
mysql clients can not use it.
You'll have to recompile php with the new mysql libs or mysqli.

Re: MySQL

Well,
do you have
a) your own server or
b) some webspace pn a shared machine?

If a) then you should know how to do it wink
Go to the php source directory
>./configure (with all the options you want, see the php manual)
> make
> make install
If you do configure --with-apxs then you just restart  the apache.
Best is though you take a look at te php website, they have an excellent documentation.

If b)
then your provider should do the updating.
