Re: [mythtv-users] mysql access problem

Yep, Thanks. Found the solution last night. You also have to add
old_password to my.cnf

The mythtv is one installed by yum following the instructions for
fedora.

The solution is http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/old-client.html

SET PASSWORD FOR 'mythtv'@'localhost' = OLD_PASSWORD('mythtv');

and add old_password to the daemon pragmas in my.cnf.

It looks like your mythtv version was compiled against an older mysql
version.  4.1 uses a different format than earlier versions.  Here's
what you need to do:

mysql -u root -p mysql
(enter root password)

update user SET Password=OLD_PASSWORD('') where
User='';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;

Mythtv should now be able to access your database again.

Opps, I was thinking of another problem people often rreport but
this is a different error message. Never mind.

See www.mysql.org for the best information regarding MySQL stuff.

Re: [mythtv-users] mysql access problem

2005-10-13 Thread Martin West
hhmm, I think I have found the problem. The default mysql installation
3.23.58. I have a local installation of 4.1 in /usr/local.

/usr/bin/mysql -u mythtv -p
Enter password:
ERROR 1251: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by
server; consider upgrading MySQL client

So now have to figure how to get mythtvsetup to use my local
installation.
