    This is with regards to the tutorial at https://www.howtoforge.com/phpmyadmin-installation-on-ubuntu-24-04/ - and I would have posted there except I get logged out when I got there and can not post. When I log in I come here, then if I try navigating back to the tutorial I get logged out again.

    Anyway...

    I got as far as where it says Phpmyadmin should appear at http://myip/phpmyadmin but instead I just got a 404 error.
    So I looked at another tutorial that included the extra step of including a symlink like so:
    cd /var/www/html
    ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin
    Then it worked fine!

    Hope this helps.

    I guess you missed this sentence:

    So PHPMyAdmin is configured to be reachable as /padm and not /phpmyadmin. Ro make it available under a different URL like /phpmyadmin, you change the line:

    Code:
    Alias /padm /usr/share/phpmyadmin
    to

    Code:
    Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin

    No, I didn't miss that. It only comes later in the tutorial. Up in the part I'm talking about it says:

    Lastly, open your web browser and visit http://192.168.5.30/phpmyadmin. If your installation is successful, you will be presented with the phpMyAdmin login page. [NO, YOU WILL BE PRESENTED WITH "PAGE NOT FOUND"
    Log in with the new MySQL/MariaDB user that you have created, then click Login to confirm.
    If your authentication is successful, you should get the phpMyAdmin dashboard like the following: [picture of dashboard] NOPE, JUST GOT PAGE NOT FOUND

    the /padm stuff isn't till the later on in the tutorial.
