everything worked, but when I installed phpmyadmin with the given commands and using the exact steps. I went to my IP where apache runs and where /info.php worked, but when i did /phpmyadmin it couldn't be found

One last step that finished the setup for me...

1.   cd /srv/www/example.org/public_html  (Location of the web home dir)

2.   ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin         (Creates the link to location of myadmin home dir)

Something seem to be broken with Jessie.

info.php and phpmyadmin.php report 404 not found.

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

vi /var/www/info.php

Had to change that to vi /var/www/html/info.php.

Debian set the default CONTEXT_DOCUMENT_ROOT constant to /var/www/html

By: James Szeliga

 ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/

On the PHPMyAdmin (7), must add line to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

Add everywhere on the config apache2.conf: Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf

Or http://0.0.0.0/phpmyadmin not working ;)

Thanks for help!

That's not needed when you select "Web server to reconfigure automatically: <-- apache2" as described in the tutorial. Same with all other posts above that claim that the creation of a symlink is required. You have to create that symlink only in case you missed to select the apache2 option with the tab key and then activate the option with the space key (as usual in apt).

I am on Debian and cannot seem to get PHP to install

apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

Package php5 is not available, but is referred to by another package.

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

is only available from another source

 

Package libapache2-mod-php5 is not available, but is referred to by another package.

E: Package 'php5' has no installation candidate

E: Package 'libapache2-mod-php5' has no installation candidate

This tutorial is for Debian 7 (Wheezy) only as shown in the headline, are you sure that you use Debian 7 and not a different version?
