Comments on Install and Secure phpMyAdmin on CentOS 8

Hi, 

i've done everything like you said and i get this:

192.168.10.251 is currently unable to handle this request.

Any suggestion?

You installed php-json twice ;)

Hi i have done all you mentioned before but when i'm trying to reach the page i get this:

You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin/ on this server.

Please, help me.

Thanks, best regards

very very thanks for share your knowledge

i did this and work for me

install this packges

yum install -y wget php php-pdo php-pecl-zip php-json php-common php-fpm php-mbstring php-cli php-mysqlnd

Great article.  Followed it to the T.  Got everything working except 1 thing.  That is securing the directory.  I've done everything as you instructed to in the article, but I am never asked for a username and password.  Almost as if the username and password requirement is being bypassed.  Any ideas?  CentOS8 Apache 2.4.

In the example above '/usr/share/phpmyadmin' still needs a '.htaccess' file.

I moved the following  lines from the '/etc/httpd/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf' to '/usr/share/phpmyadmin/.htaccess'

'AuthType basic'

'AuthName "Authentication Required"'    

'AuthUserFile /etc/phpmyadmin/.htpasswd'    

'Require valid-user'

Restart httpd and that worked for me.

Thanks a lot, you saved my life bro!

Work instruction! Do everything according to the steps of the author and you will get the expected result. I struggled for a few days and had a bad result, it helped me. I set Centos 8 phpMyAdmin 5.0.2. Thanks a lot!

Hello. Is your problem solved? CentOS 8 here also and that's the only thing not working for me. If so can you share the fix please?

Thank's

I followed the step by step and in the end, it worked correctly.Congratulations ... The only one that worked !!

 Awesome article.  Thank you.

Change permissions on your .htpasswd file might help but I could be wrong:

chmod 640 /etc/phpmyadmin/.htpasswd

chgrp apache /etc/phpmyadmin/.htpasswd

You are a genius!

Everything went smoothly!

Thank you!

Very good! Thank you!

Perfect guide! Works great.

Great !

thank you guy, it help me a lot

I have used these excellent instructions to install phpMyAdmin on two CentOS 8 Stream servers and it has worked perfectly. Thank you for your hard work on this how-to tutorial.

I am not familiar with why Red Hat has not made phpMyAdmin available in CentOS Stream. I hope that it is added in the near future.
