Install phpMyAdmin

Post by Sculpture »

Hello,

I am trying to configure phpMyAdmin in OS X4 "Tiger" and having no luck.

• The phpmyadmin zip file has been downloaded. (I initially tried phpMyAdmin-2.8.0-rc1but got nowhere and now I'm trying phpMyAdmin-2.7.0-pl2, with much the same results)

• The later download, "phpMyAdmin-2.7.0-pl2", is now in in the directory, "Macintosh HD/Library/WebServer/Documents/"

• Create a file "config.inc.php". (OK, create the file and put what in it and put it where?)

I have looked in several forums, searched the Mac web site and Googled till I can Google no more!

If you can point me in the right direction I will be most greatful.

Thanks.

PHPmyadmin already comes with the config file, or at least it always does for me, I think its normally called config.default.php or something. Just point your browser to the directory it is sitting in now, it should work out of the box as long as PHP is set up (it just won't connect to your database until you edit the config file)

Download the 2.6.4 version.

I had bad trouble with the newest version myself. It does not come with a config.inc.php . You would have to use the config.default.php and save this as config.inc.php and fill in all the required info.

However I did that and only got an empty index.php.

I used the 2.6.4 version and it worked perfectly first try
