roundcube version 1.3.8 (latest ubuntu 19.10 package)
mysql 8.0.18
after i upgraded a working roundcube install to ubuntu 19.10, i got the expected errors from not having mysql_native_password set, which seem to be gone, but i now get
The server requested authentication method unknown to the client in /usr/share/roundcube/program/lib/Roundcube/rcube_db.php on line 176 (GET /)
The server requested authentication method unknown to the client (GET /)
i'm thinking this maybe something to do with the mysql version being too new for the 1.3.8 roundcube, but i cant fins a packaged version or repository that has the latest roundcube version.
any ideas?
thx

You need PHP 7.4 or reconfigure your database. Internet is full of answers to this problem, it's not Roundcube specific.

php 7.4 was released *after* roundcube 1.3.8
the internet is indeed full of matches for this error message, but all the answers i saw focused on the mysql end of the problem. your comment is the first i've seen referencing the php version, so i upgraded the php to 7.3 and it now works.
