PhpMyAdmin

The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

Now on Ubuntu and Debian, you don't have to create a 'config' directory in your phpMyAdmin directory, even though that is the message displayed when you access the 'setup' script at http://localhost/phpmyadmin/setup/index.php. Instead, run the scripts

/usr/sbin/pma-configure
/usr/sbin/pma-secure

which will chmod the /var/lib/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php file which is the "real" config file for the packaged version of phpMyAdmin
