Testlink 1.6 Installation problem

Post by mark »

We have currently have required spec\'s set up for Testlink.

MySQL 4.1
php 4.3
Websphere 5.0

The application installed successfully on our server but when you try and login the following error message appears which stops the successful logging into Testlink.

Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in D:\\**\\root\\TestLink\\lib\\functions\\common.php on line 71
ok



What settings could have caused this is there a versioning problem with MySQL?

Thanks Mark

Edit: have added screenshots

Hi:

1. if you think is a bug , then a) search for a similar one on www.testlink.org/mantis.
This issue has been replied ad infinutum on internet, and some info about this
may be can be present on our bug tracking system.

2. Don\'t use the forum to signal/report bugs. Use mantis

3. Please read carrefully the installer messages, because I\'m 99% sure
there is some warning about this situation in the second screen
