I recently upgraded MySQL from 3.23.58 to 4.1.7 on a Fedora Core 1 system. After the upgrade, I ran into the following error with a previously installed copy of Bugzilla. I think the core of the error is "Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server".
-------------[ERROR]----------------- DBI connect('host=localhost;database=bugz;port=3306','root',...) failed: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/DBI.pm line 586 DBI::__ANON__('undef','undef') called at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/DBI.pm line 637 DBI::connect('DBI','DBI:mysql:host=localhost;database=bugz;port=3306','','', 'HASH(0x9afe5a0)') called at Bugzilla/DB.pm line 146 Bugzilla::DB::_connect('DBI:mysql:host=localhost;database=bugz;port=3306') called at Bugzilla/DB.pm line 138 Bugzilla::DB::connect_main() called at Bugzilla.pm line 143 Bugzilla::dbh('Bugzilla') called at Bugzilla/Auth/CGI.pm line 154 Bugzilla::Auth::CGI::login('Bugzilla::Auth::CGI',2) called at Bugzilla.pm line 74 Bugzilla::login('Bugzilla',2) called at /www/htdocs/bugz/query.cgi line 60 at Bugzilla/DB.pm line 146 ----------------------------------------- So far, my research shows that the issue may be with the Client. This is where my knowledge is failing me as I am unsure of how to upgrade the Client. The install was done from source, as I have always found this to be the most stable method of upgrading. Any assistance would be appreciated.
