Starscream Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Hey everybody. I'm having the infamous but deadly "ERROR 1251: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client" issue. I honestly have no idea how to fix it, and at this point I'm about ready to give up because I have no idea what is causing the problem. Some people say it's PHP, others say it's my "client," though honestly I still haven't figured out what that refers to in any understandable/usable manner. All of the fixes seem to be aimed at PCs, leaving me and my OSX 10.3.9 out in the cold. If anybody knows how to fix it, I would love to hear from you, but otherwise I'm about ready to just delete all MySQL programs from my computer and install version 4, the last one I could get (and keep) running. Does anybody know how to wipe all versions of MySQL from a mac system? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/52597-mysql-50-on-mac-osx-wont-start-start-over/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
