MySQL Error
Hey, I've been trying to install Wacintaki on my site, and every time I re-install it I get the same error:
ERROR: Could not connect to MySQL database with supplied information.
DB: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
I'm not sure how to actually fix it. I'm hosting my site via Godaddy, using MySQL 5.0.
Any help I can get is appreciated. <3

Re: MySQL Error
Just so you know, I spent some time this weekend writing a new database layer, and it seems to work great with MySQLi servers. It was easier than I thought.
I need to finish the installer and updater, but in a few more days I should have something you can test.

Re: MySQL Error
Did you get my e-mail?
Here is a beta of 1.5.0, which has the new database code: 1.5.0 beta. I find it a bit odd that any shared hosting service is using MySQLi right now, but give it a try and see if it works. It installs just like the current version of Wacintaki. You don't have to select a different database or something like that.
This is a full install only. The beta updater is working, but I've disabled it here because 1.5.0 isn't finished, and I don't want other people to update to 1.5.0 just yet.
