upgrading the php Client API version to MySQL
Posted by Darvil, 06-14-2007, 01:43 PM |
I can't for the life of me figure out how to upgrade the Client API version authencation method in php for MySQL.
The server had MySQL 3.23.58 before and doing a phpinfo() reflects that. The problem is even after I install a newer version of MySQL 4.1.22 (using RPMs), it still doesn't see it.
I've ran privilege table fix but I am unable to use any mysql accounts unless I use the old password method.
I can have MySQL be up and running using the old password method but I prefer that it works with the newer authentication method since things could go wrong if I do the other way.
Is there a way I can resolve this? or do I just have to stick with the old password hashing method?
Thanks for reading.

you could recompile php that should link against the new mysql although if there's password conflicts I don't remember how to resolve that. It's probably on google.

I've tried on google already. No love from google which is why I ask here.
I'll keep on trying though.
