I’m currently following this tutorial https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-secure-phpmyadmin-with-apache-on-a-centos-7-server to install phpMyAdmin on my droplet. The phpMyAdmin.conf file is never generated. When I go to the conf.d folder it doesn’t exist and if I vi the file it’s empty. However, I can see phpMyAdmin in the etc folder and when I try to run the install again, it says that it has already been installed.

My droplet is running Apache on Centos7 with PHP 7.3.

According to the command line response it was installed with no errors, but the conf file is never generated. Because it was a new droplet, I recreated it using Ubuntu, same issue. However, I created a symbolic link from the apache.conf file in /etc/phpmyadmin and that did the trick.

Thanks!

Hello, @plumwd

Can you please confirm if phpMyAdmin was successfully installed from the epel repository and that there were no errors during the installation process?

I will recommend you to re-install phpMyAdmin and try again. You can also create the config file (/etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf) on your own as well.

Let me know how it goes.

Regards,
Alex
