Attempting to connect to database as admin BAD
Does administrative user have access to the database? ( Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client )



I get the above message upon installing mantis 1.0.3. I have successfully installed apache 2.0.58, php 4.4.2 & mysql 4.1.20.

I tried mysql 5.0.22 but I still get the same message.

Interesting..., I uninstalled mysql 4.1.20 and installed mysql 3.23.58 and mantis installs fine. Why 4 and 5 mysql doesn't work???

Okay, I got mantis running on mysql 3 now.

The thing is, I read the manual and met the requirements. But everytime when I create a new user it fails to send an email. How can email be setup? This was not in the manual....

replied a similar post just a few days back.

mantis email is sent using phpmailer and to use it...U have to edit the php.ini file.

search for "mail function" in php.ini
when found...look around a few lines after that....should have a "SMTP=localhost" entry...change the localhost to the name of ur mail server...and add "Port=25" as the next line.
