Connecting Phpbb and a Mysql database

[bwells]

I need some seerious help. I have used myphpadmin to create a database. 1) I honestly don't know where to find that database (im used to ms access)
2) I found a folder with the same name as my database in my mysql folder and i put it on my IIS db folder. When i try to set up my phpbb i get these errors:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\phpbb2\db\mysql4.php on line 48

Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\phpbb2\db\mysql4.php on line 330

Warning: mysql_errno(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\phpbb2\db\mysql4.php on line 331
phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database


Any ideas and how to go about fixing this?

It looks like your obviously running Windows which doesn't come with MySQL pre-installed. I can only assume you have installed MySQL already since you used phpMyAdmin to create a database. From there it should only be a simple act of uploading the phpBB .php files and editing the configuration and running the install script per the documentation.
