I go to Apache24>conf>httpd and change index.html to index.php. After that i refresh Apache in services and to http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ and recieve the following error:

phpMyAdmin- Error

The mysqli extension is missing. Please check your PHP configuration.

  1. Install php5-mysql extension by apt-get install php5-mysql command
  2. Add extension=mysqli.so (near other 'extension=' lines) line to your php.ini
  3. Restart apache service by /etc/init.d/apache2 restart command

  • Thanks for your answer, just need clarification: 1) apt-get install php5-mysql, should i put that command in command prompt? 2) i have php.ini-development and php.ini-produtcion, which file should i add extension=myqli.so – Haris Khan Jul 08 '14 at 17:08
  • My answer is actual for Debian Linux. For Windows it will be helpful for you: [link](http://php.net/manual/en/install.windows.extensions.php) You need to put php_mysqli.dll to your ext folder and then edit php.ini. 2) php.ini-development and php.ini-produtcion is a EXAMPLE files. Rename php.ini-production to php.ini – bullet28 Jul 08 '14 at 18:30
  • i uncommented extension=mysqli.dll inside php.ini folder and php.ini - production. Then i restarted the service Apache. But still i am recieving the same error and php_mysqli.dll is already there under ext folder – Haris Khan Jul 08 '14 at 18:51

Try visiting phpmyadmin here...

http://127.0.0.1/phpmyadmin/

instead of

http://localhost/phpmyadmin/

Try to check to check your httpd-xampp config file.

Make sure the Make sure the Php-Module conform with your current php version.

example here: IfModule php5_module

Based on your migration you are using php7, so edit all the php5_module tag in your config file to php7_module and restart the apache server.

First check you PHP Version From

php -v
say version is php7.1

Install mysql from:

sudo apt-get install php7.1-mysql

Then restart Apache

sudo service apache2 restart

For windows, laragon, php8 user, (this is what i did)

  1. Make sure Your extension_dir in php.ini points to your Disk:/laragon/bin/php/php-version/ext (with double quotes)
  2. Make sure you have extension named php_mysqli in that (ext) folder
  3. Uncomment (line) extension=mysqli by deleting the semicolon(;)
  4. Restart laragon

this is enough for me, hope it helps you.
