Client Error while acessing MySQL 5.0

[Ad Ad]

Hi,
I am trying to access MySQL 5.0 using the mysql.rb got from:
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/ruby-mysql/

Apparently, this client is pre 4.1 and can't be used to access MySQl
5.0.

I get this error while trying to access the database:
Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server;
consider upgrading MySQL client

Is there a latest mysql client version which I can use to access MYSQl
5.0?

I am on a Windows XP box.

thanks.

Have you tried install the mysql gem?

gem install mysql
