hello, i have a problem.
  when I want to enter the phpMyAdmin database then appears forbidden on the browser. I know this because modsecuritycrs41sqlinjection_attacks.conf module sql block. so how can I allow phpMyAdmin and modules modsec only block extraneous files outside of the directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin ?

Turn off mod_security for PHPMyAdmin by adding the following in the virtual host file:

<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin>
SecRuleEngine Off
</Directory>

      Usually, the location depends on which Linux you run, or which server software in Windows. On Centos, it will be in /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

      This solution works (I just tested it on 3 servers I manage), but you have to place it in the correct file for your Apache server, and for the correct <Directory> within that. Don’t delete anything; add the SecRuleEngine to the top of <Directory>, before any of the other rules. You can also make it conditional on mod_security with an <IfModule> condition, so as not to upset Apache if you happen to remove it.
