phpMyAdmin is a very common and handy tool that most of the developers use. It is available on almost every server.
Installing phpMyAdmin on Ubuntu server is even easier, you just need to
sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
but what if we accidently skip the configuration screen where phpmyadmin makes modifications to apache?
Dont worry just do the following
Edit Apache’s configuration file (assuming you are using apache2)
sudo nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf # better to use the following command instead of the one above #gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
Add the following line of code inside apache2.conf:
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
Now restart Apache:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Go to /phpmyadmin/ and login with your mysql username and password.
