+ <para>
+ This error is occurring because you are using the new password
+ encryption that comes with MySQL 4.1, while your
+ <filename>DBD::mysql</filename> module was compiled against an
+ older version of MySQL. If you recompile <filename>DBD::mysql</filename>
+ against the current MySQL libraries (or just obtain a newer version
+ of this module) then the error may go away.

+ <para>
+ If that does not fix the problem, or if you cannot recompile the
+ existing module (e.g. you're running Windows) and/or don't want to
+ replace it (e.g. you want to keep using a packaged version), then a
+ workaround is available from the MySQL docs:
