You’ll need to make the config file of phpMyAdmin 755, like so
sudo chmod 755 /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
To do that, SSH to your Droplet and execute the above command.
Please note that phpmyadmin might be located in a different folder. What I’ll recommend is to try and find it like so
find / -name 'phpmyadmin'
