mysql_pconnect(): Client does not support authentication

Post by lalaland »

I am installing Cacti from scratch and run into this problem when I started it. Where would I get another MySQL client that works. Any suggestion.

Warning: mysql_pconnect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in /export/debugtools/cacti-0.8.6h/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 355

Version:
MySQL: 5.0,19
RRDTool: 1.2.12
php: 4.4.42
Cacti:0.8.6h with no patch
Apache 1.3.x
Platform: Redhat Enterprise 3

You need to enable "old password" support in MySQL. Please research on this forum, you will find your answer.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?
