i have problem with mysql

"Error connecting to MySQL: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client"
 
This has been a frequent question on these forums and searching for it will yield all those threads, however I can't recall a reliable solution.

Have you tried upgrading your MySQL client libraries so everything uses the latest version or those that came with your MySQL distribution?

If you still don't have any luck and nobody else has any other ideas to this persistant problem you might consider contacting directadmin. Once the problem is sorted out the solution would be very helpful for future reference when anybody else has this problem.
 
i updated the Mysql to Mysql 4.1.12
and again this is me this problem... i dont know why this say me this problem
 
But have you tried updating the client libraries themselves, which depending on your setup sometimes come seperate than the MySQL package so simply upgrading MySQL sometimes doesn't work.

Looking at a php info page should get you the client version somewhere in there
PHP:
<?php  phpinfo(); ?>

However there is also speculation that DirectAdmin uses a statically compiled library so it can't be updated by us, however they have not commented on that yet as far as I can remember.
