I have been trying to install phpmyadmin through Bitvise SSH Client.

What I did on SSH client terminal console was: 

wget https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.5.4.1/phpMyAdmin-4.5.4.1-all-languages.zip 
unzip phpMyAdmin-4.5.4.1-all-languages.zip
mv phpMyAdmin-4.5.4.1-all-languages /var/www/html/phpMyAdmin
rm phpMyAdmin-4.5.4.1-all-languages.zip 

egrep ‘User|Group’ /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Here it came out an eoor about '|Group***, I ignored it and kept doing the next step'

useradd phpmydmin
passwd phpmyadmin
cd /var/www/html
chown –R phpmyadmin.apache phpMyAdmin/ 
cd phpMyAdmin
mkdir config
cp config.sample.inc.php config/config.inc.php
chown –R phpmyadmin.apache config/
chmod –R o+rw config/ 
service httpd restart

It didn't work...Then I followed the steps online that I found on
http://tecadmin.net/setup-phpmyadmin-on-linux-using-source/.

I didn't know how to add the following below either: 

<Directory "/usr/share/phpmyadmin">
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 192.168.1.0/24
</Directory>

Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin
Alias /phpMyAdmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin"

Could someone help me with it please? & 

Why allowing from 192.168.1.0/24? which IP is this?

Thank you very much!

  • Those are both settings for your webserver. Assuming you are using apache, you would need to modify the /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf file. Note that depending on the distribution, I'm not sure what amazon aws uses, this may be under /etc/apache or /etc/apache2 instead. You basically need to create/edit that file per the instructions. – gnac Feb 09 '16 at 17:26

Your question is not really clear, and I am having trouble understanding what you need, honestly. It looks like you cannot edit that configuration file. Well, if that's the problem, you just need to follow the following instructions.

Create a new apache configuration file for phpMyAdmin at /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf and add following settings there.

To do that, you just need to open a text editor (nano is my favorite) with

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

We need root permissions to operate in the /etc folder, that's why we use sudo. Edit the file as required, and save with Ctrl+O. Then, quit nano with Ctrl+X.

Thank you very much for your replies!

I have found a perfect answer in this link:

https://superuser.com/questions/291230/how-to-install-phpmyadmin-on-linux-ec2-instance

Also if the page shows:

"PHP 5.5+ is required"

Then look at this page:

https://serverfault.com/questions/566527/update-php-with-yum-on-amazon-linux

or

Extra Error: The mbstring extension is missing,

do below:

yum install php56-mbstring

and

sudo service httpd restart

Great day to continue the AWS journey!

Good luck to every other one like me out there!
