Yeehaa Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 "New Installation Database Import A test connection made to the database was NOT successful. The error message returned is: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client Please click on the Back button below to review your database server settings. If you require help with your database server settings, please consult your hosting company." How can I solve the problem?
♥Vger Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 It's possible that either the version of MySQL being run is too old, or that it is of the wrong type. As the error message says, you should "consult your hosting company". Sorry I can't be more help. Vger
