I have recently installed MySQL Community Server edition on Windows 10. I was previously running MySQL using XAMPP but had issues with it not being very stable.

I now need to get my PHP code to work with the new MySQL Community Server. I have my connection string in my PHP with the correct credentials but am getting the following error messagein my browser:

Connection error: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2054] The server requested authentication method unknown to the client.

What do I need to change to get it working?
