Rails 0.9.4 with Mysql 4.1.1+

The other day I tried to add a password to a database for the local development mysql instance that I am using. Rails hoarked on it and I didn’t have time to investigate it further. Instead I left the user without password.

Now I updated rails to the new 0.9.4 and suddenly my rails was throwing wierd mysql permission errors.

It seems that Rails didn’t support thew 4.1.1 connection protocol very well. I then added a password and it worked. However I am not sure it should hoark when there isn’t a password present.

Update Found the bug and fixed in this patch
