MySql Error...need help quickly...

[mscdex002]

Out of nowhere our server restarts and we start getting this error when we try to login to phpmyadmin....


DBI connect('mysql:localhost','root',...) failed: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client at /scripts/restartsrv_mysql line 74
mysql has failed, please contact the sysadmin (result was "mysql has failed").



All scripts that use mysql are working properly, but people are unable to access phpmyadmin.

Any help is greatly welcome

thank you

that should solve your problem right there. Also, NEVER post your host's root dirs (as in, root/www/, etc.) because hackers get in easier that way.

Not only this, but you may consider to re-install the MySQL Database into your server program.
