[gentoo-user] phpmyadmin user/password?
I emerged phpmyadmin 2.7 and when I go to the URL, it prompts for a user/password. What exactly is this user/pw it's looking for? The one stored in mysql.users? My actual account? Both in this case have no password set. I've used this program for years, and I've just installed it from their source tarballs. The ebuild seems to add this htaccess style protection (yet I see no .htaccess file) I have a VMWare that I use for webdev. I have no pw on root. (spare me the warnings please, this isn't a mission critical box, it's just a quick VM to get LAMP/Rails stuff coded in without a lot of fuss). I've tried from links2 on localhost (this VM has no X-windows/GUI). I also have tried via web browser on the host. I put 'root' and '' but it doesn't accept it. This is all stock phpmyadmin/mysql install thus far. Strangely however, I have installed this ebuild on the host machine (ie. My notebook) and that same user/pw combo does work (and yes, I have a pw on root's account, but not the mysql root one) -- but that was installed with an older phpmyadmin and upgraded over time.

Hmm. Well I thought I had done this, but issuing this command again seemed to have fixed it: mysql -u root -p /usr/share/webapps/phpmyadmin/2.7.0_p1/sqlscripts/mysql/2.7.0_p1_create.sql The problem now is that all the images are broken and no CSS is being applied if I try to connect from a remote IP. I fixed that by setting config.default.php to: #$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://localhost//phpmyadmin'; $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = ''; Not quite sure why that is set by default when it works better without it...

I believe the correct setting would be something like $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://YOUR_IP_OR_HOSTNAME/phpmyadmin'; David -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
