Mambo, MySQL and Apache – Mambo broken for Tiger?

I am unable to successfully install Mambo on a new installation of Tiger server. I have followed the instructions; tried it both through the web interface and through the manual install. I have been using Mambo for about 2 years now. This one has me stumped.

The web install gets to the point where you put in the MySQL user, password, database and host information but their is a second javascript warning that the login info is incorrect. At this point I am wondering:

1. What is different with the MySQL database in Tiger? I have heard the password hash has changed. I tried the PASSWORD_OLD command to no avail.

2. Is there a problem with a PHP library that is causing the login problems?

3. Is there a 'safe-mode' in Tiger's Apache server that is preventing proper access?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I am certain that there will be many others who will confront this same problem as they move to Tiger.
