Hi,

i have a problem: i installed apache 2.0.52, php 4.3.9 and mysql 4.1 on win xp sp2 machine.

When i try to connect to mysql database with the mysql_connect() php function, the returned message is "Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server: consider upgrading MySQL client in C:\php\file.php on line 11" (php.exe and browser).

Why? Could you help me?

Thanks

Angelo

I recently noticed that for some reason, if I type the filename as a folder 
("http://localhost/folder/") it runs the nearest file called that.

I have several .php on a server, which can run without the extention. 
("http://localhost/folder/file"), but if I typed 
("http://localhost/folder/file/") it'll still run that file. And to save time, 
I have made a header and footer for each of the pages I make, so it does not 
consume more time re-adding them everytime I create a new document.

Is there a way that I can disable this?

So that a file (php, html, jsp, etc.) can't be launched as a folder, but can 
still be launched without the file extension?

So:

http://localhost/folder/file works,

http://localhost/folder/file.php works

but:

http://localhost/folder/file/ doesn't unless there is a folder called "file".

I don't know if this is a PHP problem, or an Apache problem.

Thanks,

Dan
