Description

PHPMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the Web.

Currently it can create and drop databases, create/drop/alter tables, delete/edit/add fields, execute any SQL statement, manage keys on fields, manage privileges,export data into various formats.

This contrib provides PHPMyAdmin for SME Server.

Installation

This contrib can be found in the smecontribs repository. To install this contrib you will have to get shell access as root user, and issue the following command: 

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-phpmyadmin

and either 

signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot

or 

expand-template /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
service httpd-e-smith restart


Important.png Note:
The contrib is not yet in smecontribs bugzilla:7627, so you have to download it by smetest 


yum install smeserver-phpmyadmin --enablerepo=smetest,smecontribs

and then 

expand-template /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
service httpd-e-smith restart


Important.png Note:
if you need to install php-mcrypt this is the workaround 


yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install php-mcrypt
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot

Configuration

By default, access to phpmyadmin is restricted to the local network, and to any trusted networks. To make phpmyadmin accessible to external networks (the internet), the configuration parameter for access has to be changed. Changing this parameter requires you to use the SME Server shell.

To view the current access setting: 

config show phpmyadmin

This would output something like this: 

phpmyadmin=configuration
 access=private
 adminaccess=enabled
 multiaccess=disabled

To change the current setting:

private or public access

config setprop phpmyadmin access (private|public)
signal-event ibay-modify
Warning.png Warning:
Setting the access type to public makes PHPMyAdmin available to the internet, make sure you choose a strong password before doing so as you severely weaken the security of your server.


adminaccess

set to enabled (enabled|disabled) to use with the url https://your-sme-ip/phpmyadmin with the SME admin account and its password. 

config setprop phpmyadmin adminaccess enabled

and do these commands 

expand-template /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
service httpd-e-smith restart

multiaccess

set to enabled (enabled|disabled) to use with the url https://your-sme-ip/phpmyadmin-multi with the Mysql user account of a database and its password. Only the database concerned is seen in the phpmyadmin management web page.

Important.png Note:
alternatively you can use root and ldap password (cat /etc/ldap.secret) or (cat /etc/.my.cnf), but it is not advisable 


config setprop phpmyadmin multiaccess enabled

and do these commands 

expand-template /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
service httpd-e-smith restart

prevent the adminaccess

in certain cases you may want to forbid the adminaccess and allow only the multiaccess, so you have to set the adminaccess to disabled and the multiaccess to enabled 

config setprop phpmyadmin adminaccess disabled
config setprop phpmyadmin multiaccess enabled

and do these commands 

expand-template /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
service httpd-e-smith restart

therefore the management will do by the url https://your-sme-ip/phpmyadmin


Information.png Tip:
remember that at any time you can see you db configuration by the command "config show phpmyadmin in a root Terminal


Additional information

  • The password is changed using the privileges section of phpmyadmin. (Locate the admin user and assign a new password there).

More information about PhpMyAdmin can be found on the PHPMyAdmin site.

Uninstall

yum remove smeserver-phpmyadmin phpmyadmin
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
