I am having problems trying to get phpadmin ver 2.9.1.1 to connect with MySQL ver 5.0.27, I get the following error message:
#1251 - Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client.
As far as I can tell, 2.9.1.1 is that latest version of phpmyadmin. The MySQL server is working correctly as I can connect to it using the MySQL GUI tools.
The following is the auth type line from my config.inc.php
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';
I have another machine which is running phpmyadmin 2.8.0.3 and MySQL 5.0.20a and that is working fine. Does anyone know what has changed between the releases. In both I'm using User=root and Host=% from the MySQL user table (as I thought localhost setting might be causing a problem)
Thanks - Blu.
