Greetings,
I’m stuck at installing phpMyAdmin, because it seems I do something wrong all the time. I have already installed LAMP and vsftpd+ftp on my droplet (CentOS 6.4). What should my next steps be?
yum install phpMyAdmin
Doesn’t work, as there is no such package.
So I had to upload a .tar archieve with the latest version of phpMyAdmin to my FTP, uncompressed/copied the files over to /var/www/html/. Now is the question what next? I’ve been trying to make config files and access the GUI installer via web browser, but here is where I’m completely lost. Can anyone please write a step by step instruction on how to install the thing starting from this point?
P.S. Also, how will my correct command look like to make a symbolic link for ./phpMyAdmin-VERSION-LANGUAGE/ -> ./phpMyAdmin/ ?

You can move the phpmyadmin files to a directory under /home/user and point the VirtualHost DocumentRoot there so you can access it too via FTP.
I have proceeded accordingly to the 1st reply phpmyadmin on apache and centos but when I visit the url http://domainname.com/phpMyAdmin/index.php I am not able to see anything it is giving error… what could be the problem… I am trying VPS for the first time… please help me… <br>Thanks for the help in advance
