I have moved my website and MySQL database to a new, free server at webhost.com, running MySQL 5.0.91-community.
Already, I have noticed that the MySQL server “does not like” the following query:
SELECT * FROM users_tb WHERE user_name='student' and user_pass=PASSWORD("password_here").
I have tried it in PhpMyAdmin, where no results are returned. If I leave out the password clause and just search by username, it works.
This code worked on the previous server. What has changed?
PASSWORDbehaves differently depending on (1) the version of MySQL, and (2) whether or not the admin has activatedold-passwordsin my.ini.
