I'm using MediaWiki 1.4 on our intranet server; mysql 4.1.something is running.
The site was working perfectly well, until today I tried to remote-create an 1.5 test database. That failed when creating the user rights stuff. And, worse, the 1.4 wiki now shows only a blank page.
I tried to create a new site/database with the 1.4 wiki, but it fails when setting user privileges. Deleting the wikiuser or changing the privileges didn't help.
There's a link in RELEASE-NOTES about the authentication changes in MySQL 4.1 to a page on MySQL's site with some hints.
