I've already got phpMyAdmin installed. An updated RPM later than that
which is included with FC13 would be helpful, though. Which repo might
have that?

I'm referring to a program that would make it easier to create a
secure virtual host with a certificate. In other words, something that
will assist with the process of creating an unsigned cert and create
the apache config info for the site.

This would be very helpful in the process of setting up and
configuring phpMyAdmin as well as other applications that require web
administration over SSL.

Thanks,
Alex

There is a phpMyAdmin rpm you can just yum install from
the repos.

Yes, understood, and I'm familiar with its security track record. This
system is isolated (as you can see from the ACL), and I'm trying to
use it to connect to another isolated database.

Yes, I've done this, and it still fails. I wish there was a way to
trace the script.

I got it working by manually copying the lines generated by the helper
script. I then just rsyncd the database from the 'production' server
to the system that is running phpMyAdmin.

Are there any automated or menu-guided fedora tools for creating an
apache SSL host to use with phpMyAdmin?

Thanks,
Alex

I hope that this isn't a system that is accessible from the Internet
because phpmyadmin has a long and great history of being compromised by
people who install it and don't possess the ability to lock it down.

If you created the directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/config and you want
phpMyAdmin to be able to write configuration data, you should change the
owner/group to apache:apache and set group write permissions on that
directory.

chown apache:apache /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/config
chmod g+w /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/config

phpMyAdmin & FC13

2010-06-05 Thread Alex
Hi,

I'm trying to get phpMyAdmin v3.3.3 from tarball running and having
some difficulty. I tried the current v3.2.5 from yum and had the same
problem, so thought I would upgrade.

phpMyAdmin reports that it's unable to write its configuration info
because there doesn't exist a 'config' directory. I /have/ created
this directory, and don't understand why it can't find it or write to
it. It's located in /usr/share/phpMyAdmin, and
/etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf contains the following:

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

   order deny,allow
   deny from all
   allow from 127.0.0.1
   allow from 192.168.1.151
   allow from ::1


I've posted a similar message on the phpMyAdmin users list, but it's a
vey quiet list, I guess..

Ideas greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex
