In order to have these functions available, you must compile PHP with
support for the mysqli extension.

<emphasis role="bold">MySQL 8</emphasis>
</para>
<para>
When running a PHP version before 7.1.16, or PHP 7.2 before 7.2.4, set
MySQL 8 Server's default password plugin to <emphasis>mysql_native_password</emphasis>
or else you will see errors similar to
<emphasis>The server requested authentication method unknown to the client [caching_sha2_password]</emphasis>
even when <emphasis>caching_sha2_password</emphasis> is not used.
</para>
<para>
This is because MySQL 8 defaults to caching_sha2_password, a plugin that is
not recognized by the older PHP (mysqlnd) releases. Instead, change it by
setting <literal>default_authentication_plugin=mysql_native_password</literal>
in <filename>my.cnf</filename>. The <emphasis>caching_sha2_password</emphasis>
plugin will be supported in a future PHP release. In the meantime, the
<link linkend="book.mysql-xdevapi">mysql_xdevapi</link> extension does
support it.
