Hey #mysql thing-knowers. I've just installed mysql 9.2, and #php 8 on a #WindowsServer. When I try to use mysqli_connect in my php application I get the error `mysqli_connect(): The server requested authentication method unknown to the client [caching_sha2_password]`
On the mysql side the user is identified with caching_sha2_password. All the answers to this problem I've found seem to be quite old, and they all recommend altering the user to `mysql_native_password`. This seems like a retrograde step, but I gave it a go, and when I tried to do that I got `Error 1524 HY0000: Plugin mysql_native_password is not loaded`.
I know exactly enough mysql and php to cause headaches for people who know what they're doing, is anyone able to help out?

When I run `wsl --install`, I get the error …

WSL2 is not supported with your current machine configuration.
Please enable the "Virtual Machine Platform" optional component and ensure virtualization is enabled in the BIOS.
Enable "Virtual Machine Platform" by running: wsl.exe --install --no-distribution

... and I can run `wsl.exe --install --no-distribution` to get around it, but I still can't install a Linux distro. :blobcatthink:
