Question
Securing phpmyadmin installation
Hello all,
I'm a complete noob but I can follow instructions quite well... :)
I was following the article on how the install and secure the phpmyadmin installation on Ubuntu until I hit an error:
When I run the command
sudo htpasswd -c /home/myusername/passwd/.htpasswd username
I get error "cannot create file /home/myusername/passwd/.htpasswd"
I double checked the .htaccess file and the AuthUserFile matches the path above. In the .htaccess file what I have is:
AuthUserFile /home/myusername/passwd/.htpasswd
As far as I can see the paths are identical.
I'd appreciate your help on this as I cannot figure this out.
Thank you in advance,
Goran
