I have two instances of Apache running on my box. Port 80 for WAN users and port 81 for private users as I had to rollback the WAN version due to probs with virtual servers using the current version of Apache.

Having looked at various sites, I see that 'phpma' is the directory that should be placed into the DocumentRoot directory to serve pages from. But I do not see this on my box having emerged phpmyadmin. Is there a how to I can go to to make phpmyadmin available?

Also, using port 81 normally I would x.domain.co.uk:81 how would this work with phpmyadmin? Thanks.

Once installed with emerge, you will need to install it using webapp-config, although the exact syntax will
depend on your setup.

Here's an example I've used before...

Code:

webapp-config -I -d localhost pma phpmyadmin 2.10.2


You usually get the syntax once you've installed it from portage.

The to access you'd simply go to the URL:
http://x.domain.co.uk:81/pma

Thanks dilbert, but I have configured your line:

Code:
webapp-config -I -d foo pma phpmyadmin 2.11.2.2


and get the following print:

Code:
* Fatal error:   Please emerge pma-2.11.2.2 first.
* Fatal error(s) - aborting
foo ~ #


Pma, is not something that I have seen which has to be enabled in Portage and I have installed phpmyadmin to the version above.

I think I might have the syntax wrong for the webapp-config command. I haven't used it in a while...
I pulled this from the man page..I think I may have missed a parameter or two :P

Code:

webapp-config -I -h  www.example.com  -d  /databases/admin/  phpmyadmin 2.5.6


When in doubt, check the man page :)

dilbert isn't there some 'directory' containing all the phpmyadmin files and directories that I would have to place in the DocumentRoot as would be the case with phpBB? Oncethis is in place, I would then add in the appropriate virtual host for Apache to call upon?

webapp-config is what installs those files from /var/webapp (or similar path, i forget its exact path) to your htdocs dir. :wink:

Bunder, with this line:

Code:
webapp-config -I -h  www.example.com  -d  /databases/admin/  phpmyadmin 2.5.6


I have two different instances of Apache running. When I try and invoke the one working under port 81 like this:

Code:
webapp-config -I -h  x.dom.co.uk:81  -d  /databases/admin/  phpmyadmin 2.11.2.2


I get this error:

Code:
* Fatal error: The user for the server type "Apache" does not exist!
* Fatal error(s) - aborting

i just installed it on my end and got it to install with this syntax:

Code:
webapp-config -I -d phpmyadmin phpmyadmin 2.11.2.2


i'm wondering though if you really need to specify :81 though... did you try with just the hostname alone?

cheers

But how do I direct phpmyadmin to use the instance of Apache running on port 81.

Code:
* Fatal error: Package phpmyadmin-2.11.2.2 is already installed here.
* Fatal error: Use webapp-config -C to uninstall it first.
* Fatal error: Install directory already contains a web application!
* Fatal error(s) - aborting
foo shoutcast #

Sorted!

Got this to work, also by changing the bind address to enable login from other than ssh. Thanks for all your help!
