Authentication error/Connection problem
I've grabbed and built the 0.3.2 version of the connector on windows XP machine.
When trying to connect to a remote host running v4.1.22 I am getting the exception: NotSupportedError: Authentication with old (insecure) passwords is not supported: http://
My connection attempt is as follows:
db = mysql.connector
I've tried using the regular password as well as the password when trying: SELECT PASSWORD('mypass'); in MySQL.
I suspect it is because the database may be using old passwords even though the version is 4.1.22.
Is there a way to confirm this, I need to move on to another driver if I can't get this one working.
Thanks!
Dan
