Lionel,
Please give us more specific information about the nature of the
problem you are having (eg error messages, codes, log file output).
The password hashing algorithm changed in MySQL 4.1 which is possibly
the cause of your problems with PHP client apps.
Try updating the password for your MySQL database account as follows:
SET PASSWORD FOR 'some_user'@'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd');
Now use these credentials to make a connection at parse some simple
table data. It should work.
Regards,
Im
