MySQL support for Torque Engine

by AIDan · in Torque Game Engine · 11/25/2001 (11:18 am) · 62 replies

Hi,

this is the first version of the MySQL support for the Torque Engine. It's a simple news script base on MySQL 1.7.1 database server.

We want to implement it directly in the SDK... may we?

Here are the screenshots and the script:

The later versions of MySQL use a different password encryption method for the password, older clients then get this error when they try to authenticate.

You can set an old password by running

Update User Set Password=OldPassword('Whatever') Where User='yourusername';

(you need to have access to the mySQL catalog i.e. admin rights).

If you google for that error there's some articles on how to fix it (happens in PHP 4 as well).

I'm not expert, as a mater of fact I'm a novice to torque but wouldn't it be safer and more secure just to call a web page? If you are using this for news. Or post data to a web page and wait for a response. 'Cause just reading the code above it doesn't look like you set a time out or anything. So couldn't it just crash the game.
