deny from all (.htaccess for phpmyadmin)

Commenting out 'deny from all' as the article states will allow everyone access. Wouldn't a safer way to do this be:

deny from all
allow from localhost
allow from 192.168.1.0/24

Or something to this extent? Axanon 06:54, 19 June 2011 (EDT)

Helpful info regarding config file, open_basedir, and a sample Nginx "sub-folder"

I ran into some issues while configuring. It took me a really long time to realize why my config.inc.php file wasn't being read after updating it.

The Wiki page currently states:

Update open_basedir in /etc/php/php.ini and add "/usr/share/webapps/".

It should emphasize that /etc/webapps is needed. This is very important and I spent a lot of time debugging.

The wiki page should mention that the configuration file is located in /etc/webapps/phpmyadmin (unless it already does. Maybe I overlooked it?)

Also, here is a sample configuration for using PHPMyAdmin as a sub-folder instead of a document root. It assumes PHPMyAdmin is linked at /srv/http/phpmyadmin. This may not be perfect but it is working for me. It follows the current configuration instructions and doesn't stray away from them as far as I can tell.

server {
   location /phpmyadmin {
       root           /srv/http/;
       index          index.php;
   }
   location ~ ^/phpmyadmin.+.php$ {
       root           /srv/http/; # Assumes PHPMyAdmin is linked at /srv/http/phpmyadmin
       fastcgi_pass   unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
       fastcgi_index  index.php;
       fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
       include        fastcgi_params;
   }
}
