in reply to DBI / mySQL: Access denied for user 'myusername'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

There is really known problem Client does not support authentication protocol. But in that case there should be another error, yours clearly say that you have unsufficient rights to connect to db.

    If the error idle linked to is the problem that TedPride is having, the solution is to install mySQL 5 locally, so you have the correct shared libraries, and then reinstall DBD::mysql.

    However, I'd be interested to know the success/failure case of trying to connect using the given credentials from the command line, as I find that's the most common problem given that error message.
