Have installed mySQL and am trying to get the database scripts to work with the install program. keep getting the following message: 'Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client'

 

What am I doing wrong guys?

find out what version your host has of mysql. also the version of php.

 

you can place this in your root directory to see some of the info:

 

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

 

place that one line as a file named phpinfo.php then access it by your http://domain.com/phpinfo.php

so when you go to http://domain.com/catalog/install/index.php (or where ever you have your store) you get the error message?

 

 

No, I get the error message after I have gone throught the database details capture page, putting the server name, as localhost, username as root, password as the password I set up when I installed MySql on my computer.... press continue and get the error message.
