I'm trying to install for the first time. I have a working MySQL. Install with go get went okay, then ./gogs web served the install page okay. I fill out the forms, then get the box

Database setting is not correct: This server only supports the insecure old password authentication. If you still want to use it, please add 'allowOldPasswords=1' to your DSN. See also https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql/wiki/old_passwords

This is unexpected.

Now, I had this problem before the first time I tried to access this MySQL server with a Go program and had the server administrator change to the new password format. That worked fine and now my other Go program can connect without a problem. Somehow Gogs is seeing something different.
