Phpmyadmin not found

I've installed ISPConfig 3 according to the excellent "The Perfect Server - Ubuntu 9.04 [ISPConfig 3]" by falko. Most things are working very well, so thank you for your good work.

The problem I cannot seem to solve is I have no access to phpmyadmin, error 404 not found on server:- for
http://mydomain.com/phpmyadmin or
http://ipaddress/phpmyadmin or
http://ipaddress:8080/phpmyadmin.

I guess I'm missing something either in the server setup or in ISPConfig setup, but I cannot see what. Could someone point me in the right direction please?

Hi Till,

As far as I can see we have not assigned an IP address to any specific web site. I did add the fqdn of the server to our external dns because ISPConfig uses a hyperlink with the server name. The same result from ISPConfig as you can see below.

Not Found

The requested URL /phpmyadmin was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.11 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.6-3ubuntu4.1 with Suhosin-Patch mod_ssl/2.2.11 OpenSSL/0.9.8g Server at styleserver02.style-cafe.com Port 80

Could you suggest other possibilities?

The tutorial said:

PHP:

Secure phpMyAdmin by deleting the /etc/phpmyadmin/htpasswd.setup file...
vi /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf


See if this works. Other distros work different.
Where ever your phpmyadmin is. Symbolic link it to the /var/www/ file. since you have a LAMP system.

Hi WayneKan1111

Yes you were right the symlink fixed the problem specifically:

ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/

perhaps this should be added to the HowTo ???

Thank you

wow .. although this thread is old .. I have been searching for ages for the solution of phpmyadmin not working. I have tried a billion things, ok maybe not a billion.. Anyway the code waynekan1111 and brian have written a was 100% spot on

ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/

fixed just like that

Thanks
