On Windows XP Prof system, using Ruby 1.8.4 & mysql-ruby-2.7.1 (pure
ruby interface),
myswl 5.0 server, and rubyuser is defined as a mysql user, I am trying
to run the following sample program and getting the error:
*** C:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/mysql.rb:453:in read': Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client (Mysql::Error) from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/mysql.rb:130:inreal_connect’
from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/mysql.rb:91:in `initialize’
from C:/0-dwn/mysql/ruby-mysql-0.2.6/sampledb0.rb:5
I am able to perform all of the commands via a commandline console.
Please help me with this error message, what do I need to change to get
it working
Thanks,
John
