Introduction phpMyAdmin is a super fantastic front end php script to the popular MySQL database server. It makes administrating your databases a whole lot ea...

We don't all want to be told we're ugly... but if we ask, we must be willingly to prepare and consider for the answer even if *you might* feel it is simply a matter of opinion. You probably feel you've set up PHP correctly but the error clearly states you've not set up your redirect_status.
Double check your redirect_status as according to the PHP tutorial and make sure it is set correctly. It seems to be the only problem in your way at the moment.
Please Note: Make sure their is no "space character" after either REDIRECT_STATUS OR 200... The "space character" is known to mess things up...
Good luck 🙂

😃 I have double checked that and everything that the tutorial tell's me to... Seems that php will not run... Is there nothing else that can be wrong here you think?

I can suggest trying to edit your Abyss config file while Abyss is shut down. This is highly experimental as I have never done it. It is located in the root directory, I haven't a copy of one but try looking for REDIRECT_STATUS AND 200 on the same line... Remove any trailing spaces...
If the above doesn't work I can only suggest you try installing PHP once again. I hope it works. Good luck 🙂

I have got it working...! I moved PHP from C:\PHP to C:\Program Files\PHP and suddenly it works..! 😃
Just another quick question: Is there any news about PHP 4.3.2 and Abyss?

vbgunz

I haven't been keeping up to date with Abyss and PHP. I am currently working on another project which requires another server and most of my time. I believe write Aprelium and ask him/her.
I am happy you got it working and hope you have fun with it. Remember to password protect MySQL using phpMyAdmin and use Abyss to password protect phpMyAdmin.
Good luck 😉

Thank you m8! 🙂

The new Abyss 1.1.6 Beta will work with PHP 4.3.2. See http://www.aprelium.com/news/abws116b1.html

Yes, I know... I have installed it now. Thanks. 🙂 Trying to install phpnuke latest version 6.7, but I'm having BIG troubles getting that one to run....

If anyone gets this message: No input selected
Then it's your php innstall which dowsn't work. I had innstalled the newest php which I later found that abyss didn't support (unless you've got the beta version). Try to grab the beta or degrading your php install.
BTW. As always a great tutorial vbgunz

I keep getting this error when I run phpMyAdmin after following the guide:

Access denied for user: 'root@127.0.0.1' (Using password: YES)

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

so your saying , that if you set a password in phpmyadmin script , thats the password for MySQL , i always wondered if that was my MySQL Password 8)
By the way , I got 3 phpbb2 forums on one server working , awesome :roll:
MYSQL AND ALL THAT STUFF IS EASY , VBGUNZ , YOU WERE RIGHT , PHPMYADMIN IS EASY TO CREATE NEW DATA BASES !

vbgunz

The password you put into the phpMyAdmin config.inc.php file has to match the *current* MySQL password. Simply putting in a password in the config.inc.php file will not change or create a password for MySQL.
agonistes, it seems MySQL is running. You just have a conflict with the password. Does MySQL have a password? If not simply erase the password in the config.inc.php file, access phpMyAdmin, create the password and then re-edit the config.inc.php applying the new password.
Good luck 🙂
PS. Thanks for the cool compliment os17fan 😉

How do I password Protect the phpmyadmin folder via Abyss?

vbgunz

I haven't a copy in front of me but it is really simple. Create a user for yourself then go to security. Map the paths and you should be set to go. Good luck 🙂

i went through the tutorial step by step, everything seemed to be going well, i started up the phpMyAdmin, all is still well, but then i go to set the passwords and get the error message:

Access denied for user: 'root@127.0.0.1' (Using password: NO)

so i go back through the tutorial, i try it again, i set the passwords in the config.inc.php (using PHPedit) to the same thing as i set my passwords in the phpMyAdmin.
still no luck, now when i open the http://localhost/phpMyAdmin/ i get the error message in each of the frames, instead of just when i click on privelages.
i guess im wondering, without phpMyAdmin, is there a way to set or unset the passwords, using only the MySQL? if so, how?

i can not acsess any file but index.php in PhpMyAdmin... it writes me a 404 error... what shuld i do?

Blaine

I am getting crazy. All I get is this dumb error that means nothing to me.
Access denied for user: 'root@127.0.0.1' (Using password: NO)
What the hell is that suppossed to mean?
And what do replace those lines with? I never got the original code, and I still don't have it. Couldn't you just put the words in there instead of telling me to fix the code I just replaced? I am confused.

musashi

when i go to "http://localhost/phpMyAdmin" it says page can not be displayed stuff also when i try doing plain mysql without abyss it doesn't work (the mysql)
now what i think is that since optonline disables port 80 (the standerd webpage port) so people can't connect to me is there a way to change which port it connect through? however, the control panel shouldn't be not working with that but i did everything correctly (i have no pw protection for mysql since i installed it the same day and abyss i didn't pw protect it and i followed everything closeley)
everything is working i have php mysql abyss
