Hi,
I searched this all day long and I couldn’t find anything on phpmyadmin or webmin.
I’m searching;
$dbhost = “”; $dbuser = “”; $dbpass = “”; $dbname = “t”; $display_errors = false;
these informations.
I’m new on vps so please help me.

If you installed phpmyadmin using apt-get then your mySQL Server should be installed with the user root and no password.
If you installed manually by downloading the phpmyadmin files and installed on a web server you will need to install mySQL.
apt-get install mysql-server
then run
/etc/init.d/mysql start
this will start your mySQL Server. Your connection details will be
User : root Password : <blank> Hostname: localhost Port : 3306
You can create a database by running
mysqladmin create <dbname>
Once you have done this your config should look like this
$dbhost = “localhost”; $dbuser = “root”; $dbpass = “”; $dbname = “<dbname from above>”; $display_errors = false;
I highly recommend you set a root password on mySQL however and never run queries as root unless creating new databases or adding users.
