Hey guys!
I’m trying to connect to a db …

[code=php]
 $connection=mysql_connect(‘localhost’,’root’,’norman’);
[/code]

and I’m getting this warning:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in C:webhomelocalhostwwwjantuannewopinion.php on line 9

Line 9, is the above code!
Please help! thanks!

@chazzyOct 22.2006 — depending on the version you used, it's typically just an option when you're installing now. The 5.0 line contains it like this when using the installer.

Success!
