[Koha] Koha 2.2.0RC2 and MySQL 4.1.7 authentication problem

[Dana Huff]

I want to start testing Koha 2.2.0RC2 so I figured running with the latest stable components in the infrastructure would be a good thing. Also, I wanted to install mysql 4.1 for the new features, (subqueries, etc.). After configuring everything for Koha 2.2.0, when I try to run a script, like updatedatabase, I get:

DBI connect('sefovan:localhost','koha',...) failed: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client at C:\usr\koha-2.2.0RC2\modules/C4/Context.pm line 409.

I had the same problem with phpMyAdmin after installing mysql 4.1 but there is a configuration parameter there to set phpMyAdmin to use 'http' or 'cookies' auth_type and that solved the problem. 

I am running on Win Xp Pro:
Apache 2.0.50 for Win32
MySQL 4.1.7
ActivePerl 5.8.4.810 Win32
and of course Koha 2.2.0RC2

Is there a way to configure mysql to use the 'config' authentication or a way to make Koha use the 'http' auth_type?

Thanks in advance for any help.
