I am just starting to play with php and mysql. I've got mysql working and can log into root accounts using a password. php scripts work on http://localhost. For example, http://localhost/php/index.php in a browser shows a whole lot of info re php, mysql and apache2. However, I can't seem to get phpmyadmin working. Going to http://localhost/phpmyadmin, gives me a window asking for username and password. If I insert my mysql username (root) and root's mysql password, I just get the same box with no error. I've tried adding a small config.inc.php file to /var/www/localhost/htdocs that is configured like so"
<?php $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://localhost/phpmyadmin/'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'MySQL.localhost'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'password'; $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = '1234'; ?> I restarted mysql and apache2 and still no joy Obviously, I'm missing something, but I can't find anything after many hours of searching that points me in the right direction.
