debian 12 - ispconfig 3.2.11 I upgraded from debian 11 to 12 and upgraded ispconfig 3.2.9 to 3.2.11 I followed this tutorial - https://www.howtoforge.com/update-the-ispconfig-perfect-server-from-debian-11-to-debian-12/ at the end it states to update phpmyadmin - SO I DID!! after finishing all of the upgrades - now they all have phpmyadmin installed. mx1, mx2, ns1, ns2, ns3, webmail - they shouldnt have phpmyadmin?? RIGHT? Will it be a case of deleting the contents of Code: # Directory where phpMyAdmin is installed phpMyAdmindir="/usr/share/phpmyadmin"[code] to stop it? or is there a symlink as well? dave
Would that stop PHPMyadmin? I find it strange it would. @Th0m , should the phpmyadmin update script have uninstall option? I read the update script, but can not see where it makes the apache conf that enables phpmyadmin. So I can not give advice on how to disable it. You would need to examine how phpadmin now is configured to start.
In the tutorial, it is clearly mentioned that the update of phpmyadmin is optional, and if you have it installed, then it is recommended to be upgraded, and since you updated it, I assumed you already had it installed earlier in those servers? Anyway you could also learn if it was installed by apt or manually by going back to the tutorial you followed in creating the servers or via command line (you can find in the script how to check if it was installed via apt). In any event, you should be able to remove it in the same way it was installed. It also does not mean you must uninstall it as it will work only in a web server, but you may if you want to. And no, I don't think @Th0m script have uninstall option for phpmyadmin as it is just updating it to latest version. The script also will run directly from the specified command and will not be downloaded to the server.
leading on from this, phpmyadmin on my web01 webserver complains about no tmp. i created Code: /usr/share/phpmyadmin/tmp chmod 777 tmp vim /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php - adding $cfg['TempDir'] = 'tmp'; systemctl restart apache2 when logging in to phpmyadmin it now states the following Code: The phpMyAdmin configuration storage is not completely configured, some extended features have been deactivated. Find out why. Or alternatively go to 'Operations' tab of any database to set it up there. and Code: Invalid server index: 0 i googled it and a solution came back Code: dpkg-reconfigure -plow phpmyadmin it asks. 1. reinstall database = yes? 2. connection type = unix socket? 3. authentication plugin = default? 4. provide mysql database name = phpmyadmin? 5. mysql username of phpmyadmin = phpmyadmin@localhost? 6. mysql application password for phpmyadmin = generate one? 7. name of the database admin = root? 8. choose webserver = apache2 (it is) then systemctl restart apache2[/code] but again when i log in, still states Code: The phpMyAdmin configuration storage is not completely configured, some extended features have been deactivated. Find out why. Or alternatively go to 'Operations' tab of any database to set it up there. and Code: Invalid server index: 0
I normally follow this tutorial if phpmyadmin got problems since it is a manual install and have step-by-step guide, (other tutorials are using apt install), so carefully following this guide helps me to troubleshoot as well. https://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-...stall-phpmyadmin-database-administration-tool You can also use apt purge and apt install to clean and reinstall it, if this is your preferred way, but like I said, it mainly depends on tutorial you followed to install it in the first place.
I followed this one https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/ispconfig-multiserver-setup-debian-ubuntu and it just worked on webservers out of the box
So you have PHPMyadmin installed via apt on the web server host, and on the other hosts in the multiserver setup you used Th0ms script to install it with direct download?
I followed the auto script to setup the machines. Followed tutorial to upgrade debian 11 to 12. At the end of the script it states to upgrade phpmyadmin. so in my ignorance i followed it. yes. is it best to remove it ?
From what I read in the script, it checks if apt has installed phpmyadmin, and exit if this is the case. But then it looks to me it downloads phpmyadmin and installs it. So after running the script phpmyadmin is installed, one way or the other.
I think it would be safe to remove it from your other servers (other than the web servers) if you so wished. I would simply run `apt purge phpmyadmin` if it was installed via apt or run `rm -rf /usr/share/phpmyadmin /etc/phpmyadmin /var/lib/phpmyadmin /etc/apache2/conf-*/phpmyadmin.conf` if it was installed manually.
thanks you all. I only need phpmyadmin on: webservers.. not on: panel - master name server's mail server's webmail server ? dave
