== What is PhpMyAdmin ? ==

[http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page PhpMyAdmin] is a PHP application that affords managing [[MySQL]] databases.

== Installing PhpMyAdmin ==

[http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/downloads.php Download] and install for example in a subdirectory of the Apache DocumentRoot or under /usr/local using a symbolic link. The files must be readable by the user running apache.

# tar -C /usr/local -xvf phpMyAdmin-x.y.z.t-english.tar.gz
# cd /var/www/htdocs
# ln -s /usr/local/phpMyAdmin-x.y.z.t-english phpmyadmin
# cd phpmyadmin
# cp config.sample.inc.php config.inc.php
# cd ..
# chown -R apache:apache phpmyadmin

Edit '''config.inc.php''' to give a value (any string of '''max 46 characters''') to '''$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = <nowiki>''</nowiki>;''' that is used when '''$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';'''. Also add the lines '''$cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket'] = '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock'; & $cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'socket';'''. After that it should be possible to open page http://localhost/phpmyadmin using your browser.

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'mysecret'; /* YOU MUST FILL IN THIS FOR COOKIE AUTH! */
/*
* Servers configuration
*/
$i = 0;
/*
* First server
*/
$i++;
/* Authentication type */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
/* Server parameters */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket'] = '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'socket';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['compress'] = false;
/* Select mysqli if your server has it */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] = 'mysql';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = false;
