No access to phpmyadmin @ lampd

Submitted by mschneider on Sat, 01/09/2010 - 7:02am

Hello,
I have done a fresh install of Jumpbox LAMPd. After that I installed the php5-sybase for access to mssql. This works fine.

Now I needed further the access to a mysql database. Browsing to http://IPADRESS/phpmyadmin opens phpmyadmin. But I can't login with root/admin or anything else.
Due to documentation the phpmyadmin should work with admin account, if I am right.

Then I tried to login at ssh to mysql directly. This only works for root with password from the jumbox/lib/appdata.yml. But it don't work with same data for phpmyadmin.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

Markus

Well, I found a solution. I edited the config.inc.php from var/data/phpmyadmin and changed the config to allow all for root, instead of deny all. Then I could log into phpmyadmin. Then I changed the password for admin. And it worked, I could log into it.

Strange, since I didn't changed any passes before.

Thanks again!

It should have worked with admin and the password you used during setup. What version of the LAMPd JumpBox are you using?

Root was explicitly denied because the root mysql passwords are common across all LAMPd JumpBoxes. Enabling the root login means that it is possible for anyone to log into phpmyadmin as root.
