Thanks Matthew,

I got phpmyadmin 2x working but when I did the restore of a mysql db nothing was restored!!! I'm not a mysql guru at the moment so pain in the ass... I'll have to live with losing a site unless I try to delve into what the backup got or not and why... sometimes it's just easier to redo the whole thing...

So I've ditched phpmyadmin and gone for JoomlaPackPlus.
And did a test. Worked perfectly for a backup and restore of a Joomla site.

That's all I wanted in the end.
Ahh the fun of it all.

Thanks again,
Ben

Hi all,

I"m trying to install phpmydmin but going into it, it says it requires php 5.3+

I'd just install from EPEL - it's in there!
(phpMyAdmin-2.11.9.5)

problems there. And it's an old version.

So I'm now trying to upgrade php with yum.
I've removed php and the other dependencies and updated the repositories to point to remi-release-5.rpm and epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm I've installed it all to 5.3 however I get the error below when trying to upgrade php-mysql.

I wouldn't touch remi, centosplus, addons, extras, if what you have is in epel;
it just invites the sort of dependency problems you seem to be getting.
