Just to be clear, this is not a setting of PhpMyAdmin, it is a setting of the configuration of Apache2, and we need to create new VirtualHost for this purpose.
1. Understanding of the default configuration of PhpMyAdmin. By default (within Ubuntu 16.04) PhpMyAdmin is included (and enabled) into the Apache’s configuration (for all VirtualHosts!) through this additional configuration file:
/etc/apache2/conf-enabled/phpmyadmin.conf
This file is a symbolic link to the file /etc/apache2/conf-available/phpmyadmin.conf
, which is a symbolic link to the file /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
, which will be used in the next step.
2. Create new VirtualHost configuration file. Let’s call it phpmyadmin.conf
and create it by nano
(or you can use your favorite text editor):
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/phpmyadmin.conf
The content of this file should looks like:
Listen 99
<VirtualHost *:99>
ServerName localhost
<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin>
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
DocumentRoot /usr/share/phpmyadmin
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/phpmyadmin.error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/phpmyadmin.access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Where:
-
Listen 99
instructs Apache2 to listen on port99
. Like @L.D.James says you can put this directive in/etc/apache2/ports.conf
or you can leave it here; -
<VirtualHost *:99>...</VirtualHost>
defines a VirtualHost which will handle the requests form all interfaces (*
) on port:99
. -
ServerName localhost
this directive is optional and can be customised according to your needs. (Usually there haveServerName
set on the Server level — in/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
); -
<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin>...</Directory>
this directive is optional because the access permissions for/usr/share/
are usually set in/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
. But you can add specific rules here, for example you canSet Up Password Authentication
; -
DocumentRoot /usr/share/phpmyadmin
this directive sets/usr/share/phpmyadmin
as directory that forms the main document tree visible from the web, for the current VirtualHost; -
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
this directive includes the default phpMyAdmin’s configuration into Apache’s configuration. Thus/etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
will be included only for the current VirtualHost! Instead of this directive you can copy/paste the content of/etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
in this place.
3. Switch Apache’s configuration and restart it.
sudo a2disconf phpmyadmin
sudo a2ensite phpmyadmin
sudo systemctl restart apache2.service
Where:
a2disconf phpmyadmin
will disable the default phpMyAdmin’s configuration, described in 1.a2ensite phpmyadmin
will enable the new VirtualHost, described in 2.
!!. Edit /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
and comment (#
) the first Alias
directive like thath:
#Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin
This step is optional, but otherwise http://localhost:99
and http://localhost:99/phpmyadmin
will provide identical result, so I suppose we do not need that
!!. If you want this new VirtualHost to be accessible from the outside don’t forget to add port 99
into your firewall’s rules. If you use UFW you can do that by this command:
sudo ufw allow 99/tcp
With iptables you can do that by this command:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 99 -j ACCEPT
I have two instances of MySql (5.1.73-1-log
) running on my server, one on port 3306 (default), one on port 3307. Now, I want to change PhpMyAdmin (3.3.7deb7
) to take the second instance, on 3307, instead the default one.
Thus, I add the following line to config.inc.php
:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['port'] = '3307';
Now, though PhpMyAdmin says localhost:3307
(look Screenshot), the databases that it accesses are still those from the instance that runs on the default port.
How do I change the settings in order to make the port change real?

You can change this line:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
with this line:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1:3307';

From the PhpMyAdmin documentation…
If you use localhost as the hostname, MySQL ignores this port number and connects with the socket, so if you want to connect to a port different from the default port, use
127.0.0.1
or the real hostname in$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']
.

first open Xamppp Control Panel click on Config Button, at the next page click on Services and Port Settings, at that page you can set all ports for all of your services.
also you should change content of Phpmyadmin(config.inc.php) file as below
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['port']= 'your preferred port number';

How do i change my default phpmyadmin port to 443 or 9999? Is it possible or do I have use port 80 only? If possible, then how do I change share the same?
Apache is listening on port 9999 for sure. However, going to URL
http://<webserver>:9999/phpmyadmin/
Will give following error (with Firefox browser)
An error occurred during a connection to webserver:9999.
SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.
(Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)
Anyone has any clue what is going on?

edit the config.inc.php file in the phpMyAdmin directory and change the following line:
$cfg['ForceSSL'] = FALSE; // whether to force using https

If you want to run phpMyAdmin on a non-standard port, it should autodetect the URL and port number you’ve chosen in your web server configuration. Since you don’t mention which web server you use, consult its documentation to see how to set up the web server to listen on a non-standard port.
If for some reason phpMyAdmin doesn’t detect them correctly, you can override it by setting the PmaAbsoluteUri
directive to whatever the URL should be.
(You may also combine this with the ForceSSL
directive as shown in @TheDigitalNinja’s answer, and any other directives you may need to use.)
For example:
$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] = 'http://rajat.example.org:9999/phpMyAdmin/';

It doesn’t depend on phpMyAdmin at all and it’s not required to know it’s absolute url.
You need to change port on webserver side.

You can’t do that. Phpmyadmin is a collection of phpscripts that run at the WEB-Server. Phpmyadmin does not use ports. Web-server does. You should go to your webserver configuration and change the default port there.

.. index:: config.inc.php
Configuration
All configurable data is placed in :file:`config.inc.php` in phpMyAdmin’s
toplevel directory. If this file does not exist, please refer to the
:ref:`setup` section to create one. This file only needs to contain the
parameters you want to change from their corresponding default value in
:file:`libraries/config.default.php` (this file is not intended for changes).
.. seealso:: :ref:`config-examples` for examples of configurations
If a directive is missing from your file, you can just add another line with
the file. This file is for over-writing the defaults; if you wish to use the
default value there’s no need to add a line here.
The parameters which relate to design (like colors) are placed in
:file:`themes/themename/scss/_variables.scss`. You might also want to create
:file:`config.footer.inc.php` and :file:`config.header.inc.php` files to add
your site specific code to be included on start and end of each page.
Note
Some distributions (eg. Debian or Ubuntu) store :file:`config.inc.php` in
/etc/phpmyadmin
instead of within phpMyAdmin sources.
Basic settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] :type: string :default: ``''`` .. versionchanged:: 4.6.5 This setting was not available in phpMyAdmin 4.6.0 - 4.6.4. Sets here the complete :term:`URL` (with full path) to your phpMyAdmin installation's directory. E.g. ``https://www.example.net/path_to_your_phpMyAdmin_directory/``. Note also that the :term:`URL` on most of web servers are case sensitive (even on Windows). Don’t forget the trailing slash at the end. Starting with version 2.3.0, it is advisable to try leaving this blank. In most cases phpMyAdmin automatically detects the proper setting. Users of port forwarding or complex reverse proxy setup might need to set this. A good test is to browse a table, edit a row and save it. There should be an error message if phpMyAdmin is having trouble auto–detecting the correct value. If you get an error that this must be set or if the autodetect code fails to detect your path, please post a bug report on our bug tracker so we can improve the code. .. seealso:: :ref:`faq1_40`, :ref:`faq2_5`, :ref:`faq4_7`, :ref:`faq5_16`
.. config:option:: $cfg['PmaNoRelation_DisableWarning'] :type: boolean :default: false Starting with version 2.3.0 phpMyAdmin offers a lot of features to work with master / foreign – tables (see :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`). If you tried to set this up and it does not work for you, have a look on the :guilabel:`Structure` page of one database where you would like to use it. You will find a link that will analyze why those features have been disabled. If you do not want to use those features set this variable to ``true`` to stop this message from appearing.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AuthLog'] :type: string :default: ``'auto'`` .. versionadded:: 4.8.0 This is supported since phpMyAdmin 4.8.0. Configure authentication logging destination. Failed (or all, depending on :config:option:`$cfg['AuthLogSuccess']`) authentication attempts will be logged according to this directive: ``auto`` Let phpMyAdmin automatically choose between ``syslog`` and ``php``. ``syslog`` Log using syslog, using AUTH facility, on most systems this ends up in :file:`/var/log/auth.log`. ``php`` Log into PHP error log. ``sapi`` Log into PHP SAPI logging. ``/path/to/file`` Any other value is treated as a filename and log entries are written there. .. note:: When logging to a file, make sure its permissions are correctly set for a web server user, the setup should closely match instructions described in :config:option:`$cfg['TempDir']`:
.. config:option:: $cfg['AuthLogSuccess'] :type: boolean :default: false .. versionadded:: 4.8.0 This is supported since phpMyAdmin 4.8.0. Whether to log successful authentication attempts into :config:option:`$cfg['AuthLog']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SuhosinDisableWarning'] :type: boolean :default: false A warning is displayed on the main page if Suhosin is detected. You can set this parameter to ``true`` to stop this message from appearing.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieValidityDisableWarning'] :type: boolean :default: false A warning is displayed on the main page if the PHP parameter session.gc_maxlifetime is lower than cookie validity configured in phpMyAdmin. You can set this parameter to ``true`` to stop this message from appearing.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ServerLibraryDifference_DisableWarning'] :type: boolean :default: false .. deprecated:: 4.7.0 This setting was removed as the warning has been removed as well. A warning is displayed on the main page if there is a difference between the MySQL library and server version. You can set this parameter to ``true`` to stop this message from appearing.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ReservedWordDisableWarning'] :type: boolean :default: false This warning is displayed on the Structure page of a table if one or more column names match with words which are MySQL reserved. If you want to turn off this warning, you can set it to ``true`` and warning will no longer be displayed.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TranslationWarningThreshold'] :type: integer :default: 80 Show warning about incomplete translations on certain threshold.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SendErrorReports'] :type: string :default: ``'ask'`` Valid values are: * ``ask`` * ``always`` * ``never`` Sets the default behavior for JavaScript error reporting. Whenever an error is detected in the JavaScript execution, an error report may be sent to the phpMyAdmin team if the user agrees. The default setting of ``'ask'`` will ask the user everytime there is a new error report. However you can set this parameter to ``'always'`` to send error reports without asking for confirmation or you can set it to ``'never'`` to never send error reports. This directive is available both in the configuration file and in users preferences. If the person in charge of a multi-user installation prefers to disable this feature for all users, a value of ``'never'`` should be set, and the :config:option:`$cfg['UserprefsDisallow']` directive should contain ``'SendErrorReports'`` in one of its array values.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ConsoleEnterExecutes'] :type: boolean :default: false Setting this to ``true`` allows the user to execute queries by pressing Enter instead of Ctrl+Enter. A new line can be inserted by pressing Shift+Enter. The behaviour of the console can be temporarily changed using console's settings interface.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AllowThirdPartyFraming'] :type: boolean|string :default: false Setting this to ``true`` allows phpMyAdmin to be included inside a frame, and is a potential security hole allowing cross-frame scripting attacks or clickjacking. Setting this to 'sameorigin' prevents phpMyAdmin to be included from another document in a frame, unless that document belongs to the same domain.
Server connection settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'] :type: array :default: one server array with settings listed below Since version 1.4.2, phpMyAdmin supports the administration of multiple MySQL servers. Therefore, a :config:option:`$cfg['Servers']`-array has been added which contains the login information for the different servers. The first :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']` contains the hostname of the first server, the second :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']` the hostname of the second server, etc. In :file:`libraries/config.default.php`, there is only one section for server definition, however you can put as many as you need in :file:`config.inc.php`, copy that block or needed parts (you don't have to define all settings, just those you need to change). .. note:: The :config:option:`$cfg['Servers']` array starts with $cfg['Servers'][1]. Do not use $cfg['Servers'][0]. If you want more than one server, just copy following section (including $i increment) several times. There is no need to define full server array, just define values you need to change.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] :type: string :default: ``'localhost'`` The hostname or :term:`IP` address of your $i-th MySQL-server. E.g. ``localhost``. Possible values are: * hostname, e.g., ``'localhost'`` or ``'mydb.example.org'`` * IP address, e.g., ``'127.0.0.1'`` or ``'192.168.10.1'`` * IPv6 address, e.g. ``2001:cdba:0000:0000:0000:0000:3257:9652`` * dot - ``'.'``, i.e., use named pipes on windows systems * empty - ``''``, disables this server .. note:: The hostname ``localhost`` is handled specially by MySQL and it uses the socket based connection protocol. To use TCP/IP networking, use an IP address or hostname such as ``127.0.0.1`` or ``db.example.com``. You can configure the path to the socket with :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket']`. .. seealso:: :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['port']`, <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/connecting.html>
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['port'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The port-number of your $i-th MySQL-server. Default is 3306 (leave blank). .. note:: If you use ``localhost`` as the hostname, MySQL ignores this port number and connects with the socket, so if you want to connect to a port different from the default port, use ``127.0.0.1`` or the real hostname in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']`. .. seealso:: :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']`, <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/connecting.html>
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The path to the socket to use. Leave blank for default. To determine the correct socket, check your MySQL configuration or, using the :command:`mysql` command–line client, issue the ``status`` command. Among the resulting information displayed will be the socket used. .. note:: This takes effect only if :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']` is set to ``localhost``. .. seealso:: :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']`, <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/connecting.html>
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl'] :type: boolean :default: false Whether to enable SSL for the connection between phpMyAdmin and the MySQL server to secure the connection. When using the ``'mysql'`` extension, none of the remaining ``'ssl...'`` configuration options apply. We strongly recommend the ``'mysqli'`` extension when using this option. .. seealso:: :ref:`ssl`, :ref:`example-google-ssl`, :ref:`example-aws-ssl`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca_path']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ciphers']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify']`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key'] :type: string :default: NULL Path to the client key file when using SSL for connecting to the MySQL server. This is used to authenticate the client to the server. For example: .. code-block:: php $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key'] = '/etc/mysql/server-key.pem'; .. seealso:: :ref:`ssl`, :ref:`example-google-ssl`, :ref:`example-aws-ssl`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca_path']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ciphers']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify']`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert'] :type: string :default: NULL Path to the client certificate file when using SSL for connecting to the MySQL server.

.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify'] :type: boolean :default: true .. versionadded:: 4.6.0 This is supported since phpMyAdmin 4.6.0. If your PHP install uses the MySQL Native Driver (mysqlnd), your MySQL server is 5.6 or later, and your SSL certificate is self-signed, there is a chance your SSL connection will fail due to validation. Setting this to ``false`` will disable the validation check. Since PHP 5.6.0 it also verifies whether server name matches CN of its certificate. There is currently no way to disable just this check without disabling complete SSL verification. .. warning:: Disabling the certificate verification defeats purpose of using SSL. This will make the connection vulnerable to man in the middle attacks. .. note:: This flag only works with PHP 5.6.16 or later. .. seealso:: :ref:`ssl`, :ref:`example-google-ssl`, :ref:`example-aws-ssl`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca_path']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ciphers']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify']`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] :type: string :default: ``'tcp'`` .. deprecated:: 4.7.0 This setting is no longer used as of 4.7.0, since MySQL decides the connection type based on host, so it could lead to unexpected results. Please set :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']` accordingly instead. What type connection to use with the MySQL server. Your options are ``'socket'`` and ``'tcp'``. It defaults to tcp as that is nearly guaranteed to be available on all MySQL servers, while sockets are not supported on some platforms. To use the socket mode, your MySQL server must be on the same machine as the Web server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['compress'] :type: boolean :default: false Whether to use a compressed protocol for the MySQL server connection or not (experimental).
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlhost'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Permits to use an alternate host to hold the configuration storage data. .. seealso:: :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['control_*']`

.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass'] :type: string :default: ``''`` This special account is used to access :ref:`linked-tables`. You don't need it in single user case, but if phpMyAdmin is shared it is recommended to give access to :ref:`linked-tables` only to this user and configure phpMyAdmin to use it. All users will then be able to use the features without need to have direct access to :ref:`linked-tables`. .. versionchanged:: 2.2.5 those were called ``stduser`` and ``stdpass`` .. seealso:: :ref:`setup`, :ref:`authentication_modes`, :ref:`linked-tables`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlhost']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlport']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['control_*']`

This can be used to change any aspect of the control connection, which by default uses same parameters as the user one. For example you can configure SSL for the control connection: .. code-block:: php // Enable SSL $cfg['Servers'][$i]['control_ssl'] = true; // Client secret key $cfg['Servers'][$i]['control_ssl_key'] = '../client-key.pem'; // Client certificate $cfg['Servers'][$i]['control_ssl_cert'] = '../client-cert.pem'; // Server certification authority $cfg['Servers'][$i]['control_ssl_ca'] = '../server-ca.pem'; .. seealso:: :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca_path']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ciphers']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify']`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] :type: string :default: ``'cookie'`` Whether config or cookie or :term:`HTTP` or signon authentication should be used for this server. * 'config' authentication (``$auth_type = 'config'``) is the plain old way: username and password are stored in :file:`config.inc.php`. * 'cookie' authentication mode (``$auth_type = 'cookie'``) allows you to log in as any valid MySQL user with the help of cookies. * 'http' authentication allows you to log in as any valid MySQL user via HTTP-Auth. * 'signon' authentication mode (``$auth_type = 'signon'``) allows you to log in from prepared PHP session data or using supplied PHP script. .. seealso:: :ref:`authentication_modes`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_http_realm'] :type: string :default: ``''`` When using auth_type = ``http``, this field allows to define a custom :term:`HTTP` Basic Auth Realm which will be displayed to the user. If not explicitly specified in your configuration, a string combined of "phpMyAdmin " and either :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose']` or :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']` will be used.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_swekey_config'] :type: string :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 3.0.0.0 This setting was named `$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_feebee_config']` and was renamed before the `3.0.0.0` release. .. deprecated:: 4.6.4 This setting was removed because their servers are no longer working and it was not working correctly. .. deprecated:: 4.0.10.17 This setting was removed in a maintenance release because their servers are no longer working and it was not working correctly. The name of the file containing swekey ids and login names for hardware authentication. Leave empty to deactivate this feature.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] :type: string :default: ``'root'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] :type: string :default: ``''`` When using :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']` set to 'config', this is the user/password-pair which phpMyAdmin will use to connect to the MySQL server. This user/password pair is not needed when :term:`HTTP` or cookie authentication is used and should be empty.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['nopassword'] :type: boolean :default: false .. deprecated:: 4.7.0 This setting was removed as it can produce unexpected results. Allow attempt to log in without password when a login with password fails. This can be used together with http authentication, when authentication is done some other way and phpMyAdmin gets user name from auth and uses empty password for connecting to MySQL. Password login is still tried first, but as fallback, no password method is tried.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db'] :type: string or array :default: ``''`` If set to a (an array of) database name(s), only this (these) database(s) will be shown to the user. Since phpMyAdmin 2.2.1, this/these database(s) name(s) may contain MySQL wildcards characters ("_" and "%"): if you want to use literal instances of these characters, escape them (I.E. use ``'my_db'`` and not ``'my_db'``). This setting is an efficient way to lower the server load since the latter does not need to send MySQL requests to build the available database list. But **it does not replace the privileges rules of the MySQL database server**. If set, it just means only these databases will be displayed but **not that all other databases can't be used.** An example of using more that one database: .. code-block:: php $cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db'] = ['db1', 'db2']; .. versionchanged:: 4.0.0 Previous versions permitted to specify the display order of the database names via this directive.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Regular expression for hiding some databases from unprivileged users. This only hides them from listing, but a user is still able to access them (using, for example, the SQL query area). To limit access, use the MySQL privilege system. For example, to hide all databases starting with the letter "a", use .. code-block:: php $cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db'] = '^a'; and to hide both "db1" and "db2" use .. code-block:: php $cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db'] = '^(db1|db2)$'; More information on regular expressions can be found in the `PCRE pattern syntax <https://www.php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.syntax.php>`_ portion of the PHP reference manual.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Only useful when using phpMyAdmin with multiple server entries. If set, this string will be displayed instead of the hostname in the pull-down menu on the main page. This can be useful if you want to show only certain databases on your system, for example. For HTTP auth, all non-US-ASCII characters will be stripped.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] :type: string :default: ``'mysqli'`` .. deprecated:: 4.2.0 This setting was removed. The ``mysql`` extension will only be used when the ``mysqli`` extension is not available. As of 5.0.0, only the ``mysqli`` extension can be used. The PHP MySQL extension to use (``mysql`` or ``mysqli``). It is recommended to use ``mysqli`` in all installations.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The name of the database containing the phpMyAdmin configuration storage. See the :ref:`linked-tables` section in this document to see the benefits of this feature, and for a quick way of creating this database and the needed tables. If you are the only user of this phpMyAdmin installation, you can use your current database to store those special tables; in this case, just put your current database name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`. For a multi-user installation, set this parameter to the name of your central database containing the phpMyAdmin configuration storage.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['bookmarktable'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 2.2.0 Since release 2.2.0 phpMyAdmin allows users to bookmark queries. This can be useful for queries you often run. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * enter the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['bookmarktable']` This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['relation'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 2.2.4 Since release 2.2.4 you can describe, in a special 'relation' table, which column is a key in another table (a foreign key). phpMyAdmin currently uses this to: * make clickable, when you browse the master table, the data values that point to the foreign table; * display in an optional tool-tip the "display column" when browsing the master table, if you move the mouse to a column containing a foreign key (use also the 'table_info' table); (see :ref:`faqdisplay`) * in edit/insert mode, display a drop-down list of possible foreign keys (key value and "display column" are shown) (see :ref:`faq6_21`) * display links on the table properties page, to check referential integrity (display missing foreign keys) for each described key; * in query-by-example, create automatic joins (see :ref:`faq6_6`) * enable you to get a :term:`PDF` schema of your database (also uses the table_coords table). The keys can be numeric or character. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the relation table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['relation']` * now as normal user open phpMyAdmin and for each one of your tables where you want to use this feature, click :guilabel:`Structure/Relation view/` and choose foreign columns. This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``. .. note:: In the current version, ``master_db`` must be the same as ``foreign_db``. Those columns have been put in future development of the cross-db relations.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_info'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 2.3.0 Since release 2.3.0 you can describe, in a special 'table_info' table, which column is to be displayed as a tool-tip when moving the cursor over the corresponding key. This configuration variable will hold the name of this special table. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_info']` (e.g. ``pma__table_info``) * then for each table where you want to use this feature, click "Structure/Relation view/Choose column to display" to choose the column. This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``. .. seealso:: :ref:`faqdisplay`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_coords'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` The designer feature can save your page layout; by pressing the "Save page" or "Save page as" button in the expanding designer menu, you can customize the layout and have it loaded the next time you use the designer. That layout is stored in this table. Furthermore, this table is also required for using the PDF relation export feature, see :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pdf_pages']` for additional details.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['pdf_pages'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 2.3.0 Since release 2.3.0 you can have phpMyAdmin create :term:`PDF` pages showing the relations between your tables. Further, the designer interface permits visually managing the relations. To do this it needs two tables "pdf_pages" (storing information about the available :term:`PDF` pages) and "table_coords" (storing coordinates where each table will be placed on a :term:`PDF` schema output). You must be using the "relation" feature. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the correct table names in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_coords']` and :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pdf_pages']` This feature can be disabled by setting either of the configurations to ``false``. .. seealso:: :ref:`faqpdf`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer_coords'] :type: string :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 2.10.0 Since release 2.10.0 a Designer interface is available; it permits to visually manage the relations. .. deprecated:: 4.3.0 This setting was removed and the Designer table positioning data is now stored into :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_coords']`. .. note:: You can now delete the table `pma__designer_coords` from your phpMyAdmin configuration storage database and remove :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer_coords']` from your configuration file.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['column_info'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 2.3.0 This part requires a content update! Since release 2.3.0 you can store comments to describe each column for each table. These will then be shown on the "printview". Starting with release 2.5.0, comments are consequently used on the table property pages and table browse view, showing up as tool-tips above the column name (properties page) or embedded within the header of table in browse view. They can also be shown in a table dump. Please see the relevant configuration directives later on. Also new in release 2.5.0 is a MIME- transformation system which is also based on the following table structure. See :ref:`transformations` for further information. To use the MIME- transformation system, your column_info table has to have the three new columns 'mimetype', 'transformation', 'transformation_options'. Starting with release 4.3.0, a new input-oriented transformation system has been introduced. Also, backward compatibility code used in the old transformations system was removed. As a result, an update to column_info table is necessary for previous transformations and the new input-oriented transformation system to work. phpMyAdmin will upgrade it automatically for you by analyzing your current column_info table structure. However, if something goes wrong with the auto-upgrade then you can use the SQL script found in ``./sql/upgrade_column_info_4_3_0+.sql`` to upgrade it manually. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column_info']` (e.g. ``pma__column_info``) * to update your PRE-2.5.0 Column_comments table use this: and remember that the Variable in :file:`config.inc.php` has been renamed from :samp:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column_comments']` to :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column_info']` .. code-block:: mysql ALTER TABLE `pma__column_comments` ADD `mimetype` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL, ADD `transformation` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL, ADD `transformation_options` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL; * to update your PRE-4.3.0 Column_info table manually use this ``./sql/upgrade_column_info_4_3_0+.sql`` SQL script. This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``. .. note:: For auto-upgrade functionality to work, your :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser']` must have ALTER privilege on ``phpmyadmin`` database. See the `MySQL documentation for GRANT <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/grant.html>`_ on how to ``GRANT`` privileges to a user.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['history'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 2.5.0 Since release 2.5.0 you can store your :term:`SQL` history, which means all queries you entered manually into the phpMyAdmin interface. If you don't want to use a table-based history, you can use the JavaScript-based history. Using that, all your history items are deleted when closing the window. Using :config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryMax']` you can specify an amount of history items you want to have on hold. On every login, this list gets cut to the maximum amount. The query history is only available if JavaScript is enabled in your browser. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['history']` (e.g. ``pma__history``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['recent'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 3.5.0 Since release 3.5.0 you can show recently used tables in the navigation panel. It helps you to jump across table directly, without the need to select the database, and then select the table. Using :config:option:`$cfg['NumRecentTables']` you can configure the maximum number of recent tables shown. When you select a table from the list, it will jump to the page specified in :config:option:`$cfg['NavigationTreeDefaultTabTable']`. Without configuring the storage, you can still access the recently used tables, but it will disappear after you logout. To allow the usage of this functionality persistently: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['recent']` (e.g. ``pma__recent``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['favorite'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.2.0 Since release 4.2.0 you can show a list of selected tables in the navigation panel. It helps you to jump to the table directly, without the need to select the database, and then select the table. When you select a table from the list, it will jump to the page specified in :config:option:`$cfg['NavigationTreeDefaultTabTable']`. You can add tables to this list or remove tables from it in database structure page by clicking on the star icons next to table names. Using :config:option:`$cfg['NumFavoriteTables']` you can configure the maximum number of favorite tables shown. Without configuring the storage, you can still access the favorite tables, but it will disappear after you logout. To allow the usage of this functionality persistently: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['favorite']` (e.g. ``pma__favorite``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 3.5.0 Since release 3.5.0 phpMyAdmin can be configured to remember several things (sorted column :config:option:`$cfg['RememberSorting']`, column order, and column visibility from a database table) for browsing tables. Without configuring the storage, these features still can be used, but the values will disappear after you logout. To allow the usage of these functionality persistently: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']` (e.g. ``pma__table_uiprefs``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['users'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` The table used by phpMyAdmin to store user name information for associating with user groups. See the next entry on :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['usergroups']` for more details and the suggested settings.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['usergroups'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.1.0 Since release 4.1.0 you can create different user groups with menu items attached to them. Users can be assigned to these groups and the logged in user would only see menu items configured to the usergroup they are assigned to. To do this it needs two tables "usergroups" (storing allowed menu items for each user group) and "users" (storing users and their assignments to user groups). To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the correct table names in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['users']` (e.g. ``pma__users``) and :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['usergroups']` (e.g. ``pma__usergroups``) This feature can be disabled by setting either of the configurations to ``false``. .. seealso:: :ref:`configurablemenus`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['navigationhiding'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.1.0 Since release 4.1.0 you can hide/show items in the navigation tree. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['navigationhiding']` (e.g. ``pma__navigationhiding``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['central_columns'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.3.0 Since release 4.3.0 you can have a central list of columns per database. You can add/remove columns to the list as per your requirement. These columns in the central list will be available to use while you create a new column for a table or create a table itself. You can select a column from central list while creating a new column, it will save you from writing the same column definition over again or from writing different names for similar column. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['central_columns']` (e.g. ``pma__central_columns``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer_settings'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.5.0 Since release 4.5.0 your designer settings can be remembered. Your choice regarding 'Angular/Direct Links', 'Snap to Grid', 'Toggle Relation Lines', 'Small/Big All', 'Move Menu' and 'Pin Text' can be remembered persistently. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer_settings']` (e.g. ``pma__designer_settings``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['savedsearches'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.2.0 Since release 4.2.0 you can save and load query-by-example searches from the Database > Query panel. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['savedsearches']` (e.g. ``pma__savedsearches``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['export_templates'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.5.0 Since release 4.5.0 you can save and load export templates. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['export_templates']` (e.g. ``pma__export_templates``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 3.3.x Since release 3.3.x a tracking mechanism is available. It helps you to track every :term:`SQL` command which is executed by phpMyAdmin. The mechanism supports logging of data manipulation and data definition statements. After enabling it you can create versions of tables. The creation of a version has two effects: * phpMyAdmin saves a snapshot of the table, including structure and indexes. * phpMyAdmin logs all commands which change the structure and/or data of the table and links these commands with the version number. Of course you can view the tracked changes. On the :guilabel:`Tracking` page a complete report is available for every version. For the report you can use filters, for example you can get a list of statements within a date range. When you want to filter usernames you can enter * for all names or you enter a list of names separated by ','. In addition you can export the (filtered) report to a file or to a temporary database. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking']` (e.g. ``pma__tracking``) This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_version_auto_create'] :type: boolean :default: false Whether the tracking mechanism creates versions for tables and views automatically. If this is set to true and you create a table or view with * CREATE TABLE ... * CREATE VIEW ... and no version exists for it, the mechanism will create a version for you automatically.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_default_statements'] :type: string :default: ``'CREATE TABLE,ALTER TABLE,DROP TABLE,RENAME TABLE,CREATE INDEX,DROP INDEX,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,TRUNCATE,REPLACE,CREATE VIEW,ALTER VIEW,DROP VIEW,CREATE DATABASE,ALTER DATABASE,DROP DATABASE'`` Defines the list of statements the auto-creation uses for new versions.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_add_drop_view'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether a `DROP VIEW IF EXISTS` statement will be added as first line to the log when creating a view.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_add_drop_table'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether a `DROP TABLE IF EXISTS` statement will be added as first line to the log when creating a table.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_add_drop_database'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether a `DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS` statement will be added as first line to the log when creating a database.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['userconfig'] :type: string or false :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 3.4.x Since release 3.4.x phpMyAdmin allows users to set most preferences by themselves and store them in the database. If you don't allow for storing preferences in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`, users can still personalize phpMyAdmin, but settings will be saved in browser's local storage, or, it is is unavailable, until the end of session. To allow the usage of this functionality: * set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage * put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['userconfig']` This feature can be disabled by setting the configuration to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['MaxTableUiprefs'] :type: integer :default: 100 Maximum number of rows saved in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']` table. When tables are dropped or renamed, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']` may contain invalid data (referring to tables which no longer exist). We only keep this number of newest rows in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']` and automatically delete older rows.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SessionTimeZone'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Sets the time zone used by phpMyAdmin. Leave blank to use the time zone of your database server. Possible values are explained at https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/time-zone-support.html This is useful when your database server uses a time zone which is different from the time zone you want to use in phpMyAdmin.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowRoot'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to allow root access. This is just a shortcut for the :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules']` below.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] :type: boolean :default: false Whether to allow logins without a password. The default value of ``false`` for this parameter prevents unintended access to a MySQL server with was left with an empty password for root or on which an anonymous (blank) user is defined.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order'] :type: string :default: ``''`` If your rule order is empty, then :term:`IP` authorization is disabled. If your rule order is set to ``'deny,allow'`` then the system applies all deny rules followed by allow rules. Access is allowed by default. Any client which does not match a Deny command or does match an Allow command will be allowed access to the server. If your rule order is set to ``'allow,deny'`` then the system applies all allow rules followed by deny rules. Access is denied by default. Any client which does not match an Allow directive or does match a Deny directive will be denied access to the server. If your rule order is set to ``'explicit'``, authorization is performed in a similar fashion to rule order 'deny,allow', with the added restriction that your host/username combination **must** be listed in the *allow* rules, and not listed in the *deny* rules. This is the **most** secure means of using Allow/Deny rules, and was available in Apache by specifying allow and deny rules without setting any order. Please also see :config:option:`$cfg['TrustedProxies']` for detecting IP address behind proxies.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules'] :type: array of strings :default: array() The general format for the rules is as such: .. code-block:: none <'allow' | 'deny'> <username> [from] <ipmask> If you wish to match all users, it is possible to use a ``'%'`` as a wildcard in the *username* field. There are a few shortcuts you can use in the *ipmask* field as well (please note that those containing SERVER_ADDRESS might not be available on all webservers): .. code-block:: none 'all' -> 0.0.0.0/0 'localhost' -> 127.0.0.1/8 'localnetA' -> SERVER_ADDRESS/8 'localnetB' -> SERVER_ADDRESS/16 'localnetC' -> SERVER_ADDRESS/24 Having an empty rule list is equivalent to either using ``'allow % from all'`` if your rule order is set to ``'deny,allow'`` or ``'deny % from all'`` if your rule order is set to ``'allow,deny'`` or ``'explicit'``. For the :term:`IP Address` matching system, the following work: * ``xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx`` (an exact :term:`IP Address`) * ``xxx.xxx.xxx.[yyy-zzz]`` (an :term:`IP Address` range) * ``xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/nn`` (CIDR, Classless Inter-Domain Routing type :term:`IP` addresses) But the following does not work: * ``xxx.xxx.xxx.xx[yyy-zzz]`` (partial :term:`IP` address range) For :term:`IPv6` addresses, the following work: * ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx`` (an exact :term:`IPv6` address) * ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:[yyyy-zzzz]`` (an :term:`IPv6` address range) * ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/nn`` (CIDR, Classless Inter-Domain Routing type :term:`IPv6` addresses) But the following does not work: * ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xx[yyy-zzz]`` (partial :term:`IPv6` address range) Examples: .. code-block:: none $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order'] = 'allow,deny'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules'] = ['allow bob from all']; // Allow only 'bob' to connect from any host $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order'] = 'allow,deny'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules'] = ['allow mary from 192.168.100.[50-100]']; // Allow only 'mary' to connect from host 192.168.100.50 through 192.168.100.100 $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order'] = 'allow,deny'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules'] = ['allow % from 192.168.[5-6].10']; // Allow any user to connect from host 192.168.5.10 or 192.168.6.10 $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order'] = 'allow,deny'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules'] = ['allow root from 192.168.5.50','allow % from 192.168.6.10']; // Allow any user to connect from 192.168.6.10, and additionally allow root to connect from 192.168.5.50
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['DisableIS'] :type: boolean :default: false Disable using ``INFORMATION_SCHEMA`` to retrieve information (use ``SHOW`` commands instead), because of speed issues when many databases are present. .. note:: Enabling this option might give you a big performance boost on older MySQL servers.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonScript'] :type: string :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 3.5.0 Name of PHP script to be sourced and executed to obtain login credentials. This is alternative approach to session based single signon. The script has to provide a function called ``get_login_credentials`` which returns list of username and password, accepting single parameter of existing username (can be empty). See :file:`examples/signon-script.php` for an example: .. literalinclude:: ../examples/signon-script.php :language: php .. seealso:: :ref:`auth_signon`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonSession'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Name of session which will be used for signon authentication method. You should use something different than ``phpMyAdmin``, because this is session which phpMyAdmin uses internally. Takes effect only if :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonScript']` is not configured. .. seealso:: :ref:`auth_signon`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonCookieParams'] :type: array :default: ``array()`` .. versionadded:: 4.7.0 An associative array of session cookie parameters of other authentication system. It is not needed if the other system doesn't use session_set_cookie_params(). Keys should include 'lifetime', 'path', 'domain', 'secure' or 'httponly'. Valid values are mentioned in `session_get_cookie_params <https://www.php.net/manual/en/ function.session-get-cookie-params.php>`_, they should be set to same values as the other application uses. Takes effect only if :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonScript']` is not configured. .. seealso:: :ref:`auth_signon`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonURL'] :type: string :default: ``''`` :term:`URL` where user will be redirected to log in for signon authentication method. Should be absolute including protocol. .. seealso:: :ref:`auth_signon`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['LogoutURL'] :type: string :default: ``''`` :term:`URL` where user will be redirected after logout (doesn't affect config authentication method). Should be absolute including protocol.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_connection_errors'] :type: boolean :default: false .. versionadded:: 4.9.8 Whether to show or hide detailed MySQL/MariaDB connection errors on the login page. .. note:: This error message can contain the target database server hostname or IP address, which may reveal information about your network to an attacker.
Generic settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['DisableShortcutKeys'] :type: boolean :default: false You can disable phpMyAdmin shortcut keys by setting :config:option:`$cfg['DisableShortcutKeys']` to false.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ServerDefault'] :type: integer :default: 1 If you have more than one server configured, you can set :config:option:`$cfg['ServerDefault']` to any one of them to autoconnect to that server when phpMyAdmin is started, or set it to 0 to be given a list of servers without logging in. If you have only one server configured, :config:option:`$cfg['ServerDefault']` MUST be set to that server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['VersionCheck'] :type: boolean :default: true Enables check for latest versions using JavaScript on the main phpMyAdmin page or by directly accessing `index.php?route=/version-check`. .. note:: This setting can be adjusted by your vendor.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ProxyUrl'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The url of the proxy to be used when phpmyadmin needs to access the outside internet such as when retrieving the latest version info or submitting error reports. You need this if the server where phpMyAdmin is installed does not have direct access to the internet. The format is: "hostname:portnumber"
.. config:option:: $cfg['ProxyUser'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The username for authenticating with the proxy. By default, no authentication is performed. If a username is supplied, Basic Authentication will be performed. No other types of authentication are currently supported.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ProxyPass'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The password for authenticating with the proxy.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxDbList'] :type: integer :default: 100 The maximum number of database names to be displayed in the main panel's database list.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxTableList'] :type: integer :default: 250 The maximum number of table names to be displayed in the main panel's list (except on the Export page).
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowHint'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether or not to show hints (for example, hints when hovering over table headers).
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxCharactersInDisplayedSQL'] :type: integer :default: 1000 The maximum number of characters when a :term:`SQL` query is displayed. The default limit of 1000 should be correct to avoid the display of tons of hexadecimal codes that represent BLOBs, but some users have real :term:`SQL` queries that are longer than 1000 characters. Also, if a query's length exceeds this limit, this query is not saved in the history.
.. config:option:: $cfg['PersistentConnections'] :type: boolean :default: false Whether `persistent connections <https://www.php.net/manual/en/features .persistent-connections.php>`_ should be used or not.
.. seealso:: `mysqli documentation for persistent connections <https://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqli.persistconns.php>`_
.. config:option:: $cfg['ForceSSL'] :type: boolean :default: false .. deprecated:: 4.6.0 This setting is no longer available since phpMyAdmin 4.6.0. Please adjust your webserver instead. Whether to force using https while accessing phpMyAdmin. In a reverse proxy setup, setting this to ``true`` is not supported. .. note:: In some setups (like separate SSL proxy or load balancer) you might have to set :config:option:`$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri']` for correct redirection.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MysqlSslWarningSafeHosts'] :type: array :default: ``['127.0.0.1', 'localhost']`` This search is case-sensitive and will match the exact string only. If your setup does not use SSL but is safe because you are using a local connection or private network, you can add your hostname or :term:`IP` to the list. You can also remove the default entries to only include yours. This check uses the value of :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']`. .. versionadded:: 5.1.0 Example configuration .. code-block:: php $cfg['MysqlSslWarningSafeHosts'] = ['127.0.0.1', 'localhost', 'mariadb.local'];
.. config:option:: $cfg['ExecTimeLimit'] :type: integer [number of seconds] :default: 300 Set the number of seconds a script is allowed to run. If seconds is set to zero, no time limit is imposed. This setting is used while importing/exporting dump files but has no effect when PHP is running in safe mode.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SessionSavePath'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Path for storing session data (`session_save_path PHP parameter <https://www.php.net/session_save_path>`_). .. warning:: This folder should not be publicly accessible through the webserver, otherwise you risk leaking private data from your session.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MemoryLimit'] :type: string [number of bytes] :default: ``'-1'`` Set the number of bytes a script is allowed to allocate. If set to ``'-1'``, no limit is imposed. If set to ``'0'``, no change of the memory limit is attempted and the :file:`php.ini` ``memory_limit`` is used. This setting is used while importing/exporting dump files so you definitely don't want to put here a too low value. It has no effect when PHP is running in safe mode. You can also use any string as in :file:`php.ini`, eg. '16M'. Ensure you don't omit the suffix (16 means 16 bytes!)
.. config:option:: $cfg['SkipLockedTables'] :type: boolean :default: false Mark used tables and make it possible to show databases with locked tables (since MySQL 3.23.30).
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowSQL'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether :term:`SQL` queries generated by phpMyAdmin should be displayed or not.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RetainQueryBox'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether the :term:`SQL` query box should be kept displayed after its submission.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CodemirrorEnable'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to use a Javascript code editor for SQL query boxes. CodeMirror provides syntax highlighting and line numbers. However, middle-clicking for pasting the clipboard contents in some Linux distributions (such as Ubuntu) is not supported by all browsers.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultForeignKeyChecks'] :type: string :default: ``'default'`` Default value of the checkbox for foreign key checks, to disable/enable foreign key checks for certain queries. The possible values are ``'default'``, ``'enable'`` or ``'disable'``. If set to ``'default'``, the value of the MySQL variable ``FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS`` is used.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AllowUserDropDatabase'] :type: boolean :default: false .. warning:: This is not a security measure as there will be always ways to circumvent this. If you want to prohibit users from dropping databases, revoke their corresponding DROP privilege. Defines whether normal users (non-administrator) are allowed to delete their own database or not. If set as false, the link :guilabel:`Drop Database` will not be shown, and even a ``DROP DATABASE mydatabase`` will be rejected. Quite practical for :term:`ISP` 's with many customers. This limitation of :term:`SQL` queries is not as strict as when using MySQL privileges. This is due to nature of :term:`SQL` queries which might be quite complicated. So this choice should be viewed as help to avoid accidental dropping rather than strict privilege limitation.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Confirm'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether a warning ("Are your really sure...") should be displayed when you're about to lose data.
.. config:option:: $cfg['UseDbSearch'] :type: boolean :default: true Define whether the "search string inside database" is enabled or not.
.. config:option:: $cfg['IgnoreMultiSubmitErrors'] :type: boolean :default: false Define whether phpMyAdmin will continue executing a multi-query statement if one of the queries fails. Default is to abort execution.
.. config:option:: $cfg['enable_drag_drop_import'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether or not the drag and drop import feature is enabled. When enabled, a user can drag a file in to their browser and phpMyAdmin will attempt to import the file.
.. config:option:: $cfg['URLQueryEncryption'] :type: boolean :default: false .. versionadded:: 4.9.8 Define whether phpMyAdmin will encrypt sensitive data (like database name and table name) from the URL query string. Default is to not encrypt the URL query string.
.. config:option:: $cfg['URLQueryEncryptionSecretKey'] :type: string :default: ``''`` .. versionadded:: 4.9.8 A secret key used to encrypt/decrypt the URL query string. Should be 32 bytes long. .. seealso:: :ref:`faq2_10`
Cookie authentication options
.. config:option:: $cfg['blowfish_secret'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The "cookie" auth_type uses the :term:`Sodium` extension to encrypt the cookies (see :term:`Cookie`). If you are using the "cookie" auth_type, enter here a generated string of random bytes to be used as an encryption key. It will be used internally by the :term:`Sodium` extension: you won't be prompted for this encryption key. Since a binary string is usually not printable, it can be converted into a hexadecimal representation (using a function like `sodium_bin2hex <https://www.php.net/sodium_bin2hex>`_) and then used in the configuration file. For example: .. code-block:: php // The string is a hexadecimal representation of a 32-bytes long string of random bytes. $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = sodium_hex2bin('f16ce59f45714194371b48fe362072dc3b019da7861558cd4ad29e4d6fb13851'); Using a binary string is recommended. However, if all 32 bytes of the string are visible characters, then a function like `sodium_bin2hex <https://www.php.net/sodium_bin2hex>`_ is not required. For example: .. code-block:: php // A string of 32 characters. $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'JOFw435365IScA&Q!cDugr!lSfuAz*OW'; .. warning:: The encryption key must be 32 bytes long. If it is longer than the length of bytes, only the first 32 bytes will be used, and if it is shorter, a new temporary key will be automatically generated for you. However, this temporary key will only last for the duration of the session. .. note:: The configuration is called blowfish_secret for historical reasons as Blowfish algorithm was originally used to do the encryption. .. versionchanged:: 3.1.0 Since version 3.1.0 phpMyAdmin can generate this on the fly, but it makes a bit weaker security as this generated secret is stored in session and furthermore it makes impossible to recall user name from cookie. .. versionchanged:: 5.2.0 Since version 5.2.0, phpMyAdmin uses the `sodium_crypto_secretbox <https://www.php.net/sodium_crypto_secretbox>`_ and `sodium_crypto_secretbox_open <https://www.php.net/sodium_crypto_secretbox_open>`_ PHP functions to encrypt and decrypt cookies, respectively. .. seealso:: :ref:`faq2_10`
.. config:option:: $cfg['CookieSameSite'] :type: string :default: ``'Strict'`` .. versionadded:: 5.1.0 It sets SameSite attribute of the Set-Cookie :term:`HTTP` response header. Valid values are: * ``Lax`` * ``Strict`` * ``None`` .. seealso:: `rfc6265 bis <https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-httpbis-rfc6265bis-03.html#rfc.section.5.3.7>`_
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieRecall'] :type: boolean :default: true Define whether the previous login should be recalled or not in cookie authentication mode. This is automatically disabled if you do not have configured :config:option:`$cfg['blowfish_secret']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] :type: integer [number of seconds] :default: 1440 Define how long a login cookie is valid. Please note that php configuration option `session.gc_maxlifetime <https://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.gc- maxlifetime>`_ might limit session validity and if the session is lost, the login cookie is also invalidated. So it is a good idea to set ``session.gc_maxlifetime`` at least to the same value of :config:option:`$cfg['LoginCookieValidity']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieStore'] :type: integer [number of seconds] :default: 0 Define how long login cookie should be stored in browser. Default 0 means that it will be kept for existing session. This is recommended for not trusted environments.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieDeleteAll'] :type: boolean :default: true If enabled (default), logout deletes cookies for all servers, otherwise only for current one. Setting this to false makes it easy to forget to log out from other server, when you are using more of them.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AllowArbitraryServer'] :type: boolean :default: false If enabled, allows you to log in to arbitrary servers using cookie authentication. .. note:: Please use this carefully, as this may allow users access to MySQL servers behind the firewall where your :term:`HTTP` server is placed. See also :config:option:`$cfg['ArbitraryServerRegexp']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ArbitraryServerRegexp'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Restricts the MySQL servers to which the user can log in when :config:option:`$cfg['AllowArbitraryServer']` is enabled by matching the :term:`IP` or the hostname of the MySQL server to the given regular expression. The regular expression must be enclosed with a delimiter character. It is recommended to include start and end symbols in the regular expression, so that you can avoid partial matches on the string. **Examples:** .. code-block:: php // Allow connection to three listed servers: $cfg['ArbitraryServerRegexp'] = '/^(server|another|yetdifferent)$/'; // Allow connection to range of IP addresses: $cfg['ArbitraryServerRegexp'] = '@^192.168.0.[0-9]{1,}$@'; // Allow connection to server name ending with -mysql: $cfg['ArbitraryServerRegexp'] = '@^[^:]-mysql$@'; .. note:: The whole server name is matched, it can include port as well. Due to way MySQL is permissive in connection parameters, it is possible to use connection strings as ```server:3306-mysql```. This can be used to bypass regular expression by the suffix, while connecting to another server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaMethod'] :type: string :default: ``'invisible'`` Valid values are: * ``'invisible'`` Use an invisible captcha checking method; * ``'checkbox'`` Use a checkbox to confirm the user is not a robot. .. versionadded:: 5.0.3
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaApi'] :type: string :default: ``'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js'`` .. versionadded:: 5.1.0 The URL for the reCaptcha v2 service's API, either Google's or a compatible one.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaCsp'] :type: string :default: ``'https://apis.google.com https://www.google.com/recaptcha/ https://www.gstatic.com/recaptcha/ https://ssl.gstatic.com/'`` .. versionadded:: 5.1.0 The Content-Security-Policy snippet (URLs from which to allow embedded content) for the reCaptcha v2 service, either Google's or a compatible one.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaRequestParam'] :type: string :default: ``'g-recaptcha'`` .. versionadded:: 5.1.0 The request parameter used for the reCaptcha v2 service.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaResponseParam'] :type: string :default: ``'g-recaptcha-response'`` .. versionadded:: 5.1.0 The response parameter used for the reCaptcha v2 service.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaLoginPublicKey'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The public key for the reCaptcha service that can be obtained from the "Admin Console" on https://www.google.com/recaptcha/about/. .. seealso:: <https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/v3> reCaptcha will be then used in :ref:`cookie`. .. versionadded:: 4.1.0
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaLoginPrivateKey'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The private key for the reCaptcha service that can be obtained from the "Admin Console" on https://www.google.com/recaptcha/about/. .. seealso:: <https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/v3> reCaptcha will be then used in :ref:`cookie`. .. versionadded:: 4.1.0
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaSiteVerifyURL'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The URL for the reCaptcha service to do siteverify action. reCaptcha will be then used in :ref:`cookie`. .. versionadded:: 5.1.0
Navigation panel setup
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowDatabasesNavigationAsTree'] :type: boolean :default: true In the navigation panel, replaces the database tree with a selector
.. config:option:: $cfg['FirstLevelNavigationItems'] :type: integer :default: 100 The number of first level databases that can be displayed on each page of navigation tree.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxNavigationItems'] :type: integer :default: 50 The number of items (tables, columns, indexes) that can be displayed on each page of the navigation tree.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeEnableGrouping'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to group the databases based on a common prefix in their name :config:option:`$cfg['NavigationTreeDbSeparator']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDbSeparator'] :type: string :default: ``'_'`` The string used to separate the parts of the database name when showing them in a tree.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeTableSeparator'] :type: string or array :default: ``'__'`` Defines a string to be used to nest table spaces. This means if you have tables like ``first__second__third`` this will be shown as a three-level hierarchy like: first > second > third. If set to false or empty, the feature is disabled. NOTE: You should not use this separator at the beginning or end of a table name or multiple times after another without any other characters in between.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeTableLevel'] :type: integer :default: 1 Defines how many sublevels should be displayed when splitting up tables by the above separator.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NumRecentTables'] :type: integer :default: 10 The maximum number of recently used tables shown in the navigation panel. Set this to 0 (zero) to disable the listing of recent tables.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NumFavoriteTables'] :type: integer :default: 10 The maximum number of favorite tables shown in the navigation panel. Set this to 0 (zero) to disable the listing of favorite tables.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ZeroConf'] :type: boolean :default: true Enables Zero Configuration mode in which the user will be offered a choice to create phpMyAdmin configuration storage in the current database or use the existing one, if already present. This setting has no effect if the phpMyAdmin configuration storage database is properly created and the related configuration directives (such as :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and so on) are configured.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationLinkWithMainPanel'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether or not to link with main panel by highlighting the current database or table.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationDisplayLogo'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether or not to display the phpMyAdmin logo at the top of the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationLogoLink'] :type: string :default: ``'index.php'`` Enter the :term:`URL` where the logo in the navigation panel will point to. For use especially with self made theme which changes this. For relative/internal URLs, you need to have leading `` ./ `` or trailing characters `` ? `` such as ``'./index.php?route=/server/sql?'``. For external URLs, you should include URL protocol schemes (``http`` or ``https``) with absolute URLs. You may want to make the link open in a new browser tab, for that you need to use :config:option:`$cfg['NavigationLogoLinkWindow']`
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationLogoLinkWindow'] :type: string :default: ``'main'`` Whether to open the linked page in the main window (``main``) or in a new one (``new``). Note: use ``new`` if you are linking to ``phpmyadmin.net``. To open the link in the main window you will need to add the value of :config:option:`$cfg['NavigationLogoLink']` to :config:option:`$cfg['CSPAllow']` because of the :term:`Content Security Policy` header.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDisplayItemFilterMinimum'] :type: integer :default: 30 Defines the minimum number of items (tables, views, routines and events) to display a JavaScript filter box above the list of items in the navigation tree. To disable the filter completely some high number can be used (e.g. 9999)
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDisplayDbFilterMinimum'] :type: integer :default: 30 Defines the minimum number of databases to display a JavaScript filter box above the list of databases in the navigation tree. To disable the filter completely some high number can be used (e.g. 9999)
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationDisplayServers'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether or not to display a server choice at the top of the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DisplayServersList'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether to display this server choice as links instead of in a drop-down.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDefaultTabTable'] :type: string :default: ``'structure'`` Defines the tab displayed by default when clicking the small icon next to each table name in the navigation panel. The possible values are the localized equivalent of: * ``structure`` * ``sql`` * ``search`` * ``insert`` * ``browse``
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDefaultTabTable2'] :type: string :default: null Defines the tab displayed by default when clicking the second small icon next to each table name in the navigation panel. The possible values are the localized equivalent of: * ``(empty)`` * ``structure`` * ``sql`` * ``search`` * ``insert`` * ``browse``
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeEnableExpansion'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to offer the possibility of tree expansion in the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeShowTables'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to show tables under database in the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeShowViews'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to show views under database in the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeShowFunctions'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to show functions under database in the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeShowProcedures'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to show procedures under database in the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeShowEvents'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to show events under database in the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationWidth'] :type: integer :default: 240 Navigation panel width, set to 0 to collapse it by default.
Main panel
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowStats'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether or not to display space usage and statistics about databases and tables. Note that statistics requires at least MySQL 3.23.3 and that, at this date, MySQL doesn't return such information for Berkeley DB tables.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowServerInfo'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to display detailed server information on main page. You can additionally hide more information by using :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowPhpInfo'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether to display the :guilabel:`PHP information` or not at the starting main (right) frame. Please note that to block the usage of ``phpinfo()`` in scripts, you have to put this in your :file:`php.ini`: .. code-block:: ini disable_functions = phpinfo() .. warning:: Enabling phpinfo page will leak quite a lot of information about server setup. Is it not recommended to enable this on shared installations. This might also make easier some remote attacks on your installations, so enable this only when needed.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowChgPassword'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to display the :guilabel:`Change password` link or not at the starting main (right) frame. This setting does not check MySQL commands entered directly. Please note that enabling the :guilabel:`Change password` link has no effect with config authentication mode: because of the hard coded password value in the configuration file, end users can't be allowed to change their passwords.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowCreateDb'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to display the form for creating database or not at the starting main (right) frame. This setting does not check MySQL commands entered directly.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowGitRevision'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to display information about the current Git revision (if applicable) on the main panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MysqlMinVersion'] :type: array Defines the minimum supported MySQL version. The default is chosen by the phpMyAdmin team; however this directive was asked by a developer of the Plesk control panel to ease integration with older MySQL servers (where most of the phpMyAdmin features work).
Database structure
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowDbStructureCreation'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether the database structure page (tables list) has a "Creation" column that displays when each table was created.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowDbStructureLastUpdate'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether the database structure page (tables list) has a "Last update" column that displays when each table was last updated.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowDbStructureLastCheck'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether the database structure page (tables list) has a "Last check" column that displays when each table was last checked.
.. config:option:: $cfg['HideStructureActions'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether the table structure actions are hidden under a ":guilabel:`More`" drop-down.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowColumnComments'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to show column comments as a column in the table structure view.
Browse mode
.. config:option:: $cfg['TableNavigationLinksMode'] :type: string :default: ``'icons'`` Defines whether the table navigation links contain ``'icons'``, ``'text'`` or ``'both'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ActionLinksMode'] :type: string :default: ``'both'`` If set to ``icons``, will display icons instead of text for db and table properties links (like :guilabel:`Browse`, :guilabel:`Select`, :guilabel:`Insert`, ...). Can be set to ``'both'`` if you want icons AND text. When set to ``text``, will only show text.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RowActionType'] :type: string :default: ``'both'`` Whether to display icons or text or both icons and text in table row action segment. Value can be either of ``'icons'``, ``'text'`` or ``'both'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowAll'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether a user should be displayed a ":guilabel:`Show all`" button in browse mode or not in all cases. By default it is shown only on small tables (less than 500 rows) to avoid performance issues while getting too many rows.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxRows'] :type: integer :default: 25 Number of rows displayed when browsing a result set and no LIMIT clause is used. If the result set contains more rows, ":guilabel:`Previous`" and ":guilabel:`Next`" links will be shown. Possible values: 25,50,100,250,500.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Order'] :type: string :default: ``'SMART'`` Defines whether columns are displayed in ascending (``ASC``) order, in descending (``DESC``) order or in a "smart" (``SMART``) order - I.E. descending order for columns of type TIME, DATE, DATETIME and TIMESTAMP, ascending order else- by default. .. versionchanged:: 3.4.0 Since phpMyAdmin 3.4.0 the default value is ``'SMART'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['GridEditing'] :type: string :default: ``'double-click'`` Defines which action (``double-click`` or ``click``) triggers grid editing. Can be deactivated with the ``disabled`` value.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RelationalDisplay'] :type: string :default: ``'K'`` Defines the initial behavior for Options > Relational. ``K``, which is the default, displays the key while ``D`` shows the display column.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SaveCellsAtOnce'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether or not to save all edited cells at once for grid editing.
Editing mode
.. config:option:: $cfg['ProtectBinary'] :type: boolean or string :default: ``'blob'`` Defines whether ``BLOB`` or ``BINARY`` columns are protected from editing when browsing a table's content. Valid values are: * ``false`` to allow editing of all columns; * ``'blob'`` to allow editing of all columns except ``BLOBS``; * ``'noblob'`` to disallow editing of all columns except ``BLOBS`` (the opposite of ``'blob'``); * ``'all'`` to disallow editing of all ``BINARY`` or ``BLOB`` columns.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowFunctionFields'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether or not MySQL functions fields should be initially displayed in edit/insert mode. Since version 2.10, the user can toggle this setting from the interface.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowFieldTypesInDataEditView'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether or not type fields should be initially displayed in edit/insert mode. The user can toggle this setting from the interface.
.. config:option:: $cfg['InsertRows'] :type: integer :default: 2 Defines the default number of rows to be entered from the Insert page. Users can manually change this from the bottom of that page to add or remove blank rows.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ForeignKeyMaxLimit'] :type: integer :default: 100 If there are fewer items than this in the set of foreign keys, then a drop-down box of foreign keys is presented, in the style described by the :config:option:`$cfg['ForeignKeyDropdownOrder']` setting.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ForeignKeyDropdownOrder'] :type: array :default: array('content-id', 'id-content') For the foreign key drop-down fields, there are several methods of display, offering both the key and value data. The contents of the array should be one or both of the following strings: ``content-id``, ``id-content``.
Export and import settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['ZipDump'] :type: boolean :default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['GZipDump'] :type: boolean :default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['BZipDump'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to allow the use of zip/GZip/BZip2 compression when creating a dump file
.. config:option:: $cfg['CompressOnFly'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether to allow on the fly compression for GZip/BZip2 compressed exports. This doesn't affect smaller dumps and allows users to create larger dumps that won't otherwise fit in memory due to php memory limit. Produced files contain more GZip/BZip2 headers, but all normal programs handle this correctly.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export'] :type: array :default: array(...) In this array are defined default parameters for export, names of items are similar to texts seen on export page, so you can easily identify what they mean.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']['format'] :type: string :default: ``'sql'`` Default export format.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']['method'] :type: string :default: ``'quick'`` Defines how the export form is displayed when it loads. Valid values are: * ``quick`` to display the minimum number of options to configure * ``custom`` to display every available option to configure * ``custom-no-form`` same as ``custom`` but does not display the option of using quick export
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']['charset'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Defines charset for generated export. By default no charset conversion is done assuming UTF-8.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']['file_template_table'] :type: string :default: ``'@TABLE@'`` Default filename template for table exports. .. seealso:: :ref:`faq6_27`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']['file_template_database'] :type: string :default: ``'@DATABASE@'`` Default filename template for database exports. .. seealso:: :ref:`faq6_27`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']['file_template_server'] :type: string :default: ``'@SERVER@'`` Default filename template for server exports. .. seealso:: :ref:`faq6_27`

.. config:option:: $cfg['Import'] :type: array :default: array(...) In this array are defined default parameters for import, names of items are similar to texts seen on import page, so you can easily identify what they mean.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Import']['charset'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Defines charset for import. By default no charset conversion is done assuming UTF-8.
Tabs display settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['TabsMode'] :type: string :default: ``'both'`` Defines whether the menu tabs contain ``'icons'``, ``'text'`` or ``'both'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['PropertiesNumColumns'] :type: integer :default: 1 How many columns will be utilized to display the tables on the database property view? When setting this to a value larger than 1, the type of the database will be omitted for more display space.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultTabServer'] :type: string :default: ``'welcome'`` Defines the tab displayed by default on server view. The possible values are the localized equivalent of: * ``welcome`` (recommended for multi-user setups) * ``databases``, * ``status`` * ``variables`` * ``privileges``
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultTabDatabase'] :type: string :default: ``'structure'`` Defines the tab displayed by default on database view. The possible values are the localized equivalent of: * ``structure`` * ``sql`` * ``search`` * ``operations``
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultTabTable'] :type: string :default: ``'browse'`` Defines the tab displayed by default on table view. The possible values are the localized equivalent of: * ``structure`` * ``sql`` * ``search`` * ``insert`` * ``browse``
PDF Options

.. config:option:: $cfg['PDFDefaultPageSize'] :type: string :default: ``'A4'`` Default page size to use when creating PDF pages. Valid values are any listed in :config:option:`$cfg['PDFPageSizes']`.
Languages
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultLang'] :type: string :default: ``'en'`` Defines the default language to use, if not browser-defined or user- defined. The corresponding language file needs to be in locale/*code*/LC_MESSAGES/phpmyadmin.mo.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultConnectionCollation'] :type: string :default: ``'utf8mb4_general_ci'`` Defines the default connection collation to use, if not user-defined. See the `MySQL documentation for charsets <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/charset-charsets.html>`_ for list of possible values.

.. config:option:: $cfg['FilterLanguages'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Limit list of available languages to those matching the given regular expression. For example if you want only Czech and English, you should set filter to ``'^(cs|en)'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RecodingEngine'] :type: string :default: ``'auto'`` You can select here which functions will be used for character set conversion. Possible values are: * auto - automatically use available one (first is tested iconv, then recode) * iconv - use iconv or libiconv functions * recode - use recode_string function * mb - use :term:`mbstring` extension * none - disable encoding conversion Enabled charset conversion activates a pull-down menu in the Export and Import pages, to choose the character set when exporting a file. The default value in this menu comes from :config:option:`$cfg['Export']['charset']` and :config:option:`$cfg['Import']['charset']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['IconvExtraParams'] :type: string :default: ``'//TRANSLIT'`` Specify some parameters for iconv used in charset conversion. See `iconv documentation <https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/libiconv/documentati on/libiconv-1.15/iconv_open.3.html>`_ for details. By default ``//TRANSLIT`` is used, so that invalid characters will be transliterated.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AvailableCharsets'] :type: array :default: array(...) Available character sets for MySQL conversion. You can add your own (any of supported by recode/iconv) or remove these which you don't use. Character sets will be shown in same order as here listed, so if you frequently use some of these move them to the top.
Web server settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['OBGzip'] :type: string/boolean :default: ``'auto'`` Defines whether to use GZip output buffering for increased speed in :term:`HTTP` transfers. Set to true/false for enabling/disabling. When set to 'auto' (string), phpMyAdmin tries to enable output buffering and will automatically disable it if your browser has some problems with buffering. IE6 with a certain patch is known to cause data corruption when having enabled buffering.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TrustedProxies'] :type: array :default: array() Lists proxies and HTTP headers which are trusted for :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order']`. This list is by default empty, you need to fill in some trusted proxy servers if you want to use rules for IP addresses behind proxy. The following example specifies that phpMyAdmin should trust a HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR (``X-Forwarded-For``) header coming from the proxy 1.2.3.4: .. code-block:: php $cfg['TrustedProxies'] = ['1.2.3.4' => 'HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']; The :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules']` directive uses the client's IP address as usual.
.. config:option:: $cfg['GD2Available'] :type: string :default: ``'auto'`` Specifies whether GD >= 2 is available. If yes it can be used for MIME transformations. Possible values are: * auto - automatically detect * yes - GD 2 functions can be used * no - GD 2 function cannot be used
.. config:option:: $cfg['CheckConfigurationPermissions'] :type: boolean :default: true We normally check the permissions on the configuration file to ensure it's not world writable. However, phpMyAdmin could be installed on a NTFS filesystem mounted on a non-Windows server, in which case the permissions seems wrong but in fact cannot be detected. In this case a sysadmin would set this parameter to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LinkLengthLimit'] :type: integer :default: 1000 Limit for length of :term:`URL` in links. When length would be above this limit, it is replaced by form with button. This is required as some web servers (:term:`IIS`) have problems with long :term:`URL` .
.. config:option:: $cfg['CSPAllow'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Additional string to include in allowed script and image sources in Content Security Policy header. This can be useful when you want to include some external JavaScript files in :file:`config.footer.inc.php` or :file:`config.header.inc.php`, which would be normally not allowed by :term:`Content Security Policy`. To allow some sites, just list them within the string: .. code-block:: php $cfg['CSPAllow'] = 'example.com example.net'; .. versionadded:: 4.0.4
.. config:option:: $cfg['DisableMultiTableMaintenance'] :type: boolean :default: false In the database Structure page, it's possible to mark some tables then choose an operation like optimizing for many tables. This can slow down a server; therefore, setting this to ``true`` prevents this kind of multiple maintenance operation.
Theme settings
Please directly modify :file:`themes/themename/scss/_variables.scss`, although
your changes will be overwritten with the next update.
Design customization
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreePointerEnable'] :type: boolean :default: true When set to true, hovering over an item in the navigation panel causes that item to be marked (the background is highlighted).
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowsePointerEnable'] :type: boolean :default: true When set to true, hovering over a row in the Browse page causes that row to be marked (the background is highlighted).
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowseMarkerEnable'] :type: boolean :default: true When set to true, a data row is marked (the background is highlighted) when the row is selected with the checkbox.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LimitChars'] :type: integer :default: 50 Maximum number of characters shown in any non-numeric field on browse view. Can be turned off by a toggle button on the browse page.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RowActionLinks'] :type: string :default: ``'left'`` Defines the place where table row links (Edit, Copy, Delete) would be put when tables contents are displayed (you may have them displayed at the left side, right side, both sides or nowhere).
.. config:option:: $cfg['RowActionLinksWithoutUnique'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines whether to show row links (Edit, Copy, Delete) and checkboxes for multiple row operations even when the selection does not have a :term:`unique key`. Using row actions in the absence of a unique key may result in different/more rows being affected since there is no guaranteed way to select the exact row(s).
.. config:option:: $cfg['RememberSorting'] :type: boolean :default: true If enabled, remember the sorting of each table when browsing them.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TablePrimaryKeyOrder'] :type: string :default: ``'NONE'`` This defines the default sort order for the tables, having a :term:`primary key`, when there is no sort order defines externally. Acceptable values : ['NONE', 'ASC', 'DESC']
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowBrowseComments'] :type: boolean :default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowPropertyComments'] :type: boolean :default: true By setting the corresponding variable to ``true`` you can enable the display of column comments in Browse or Property display. In browse mode, the comments are shown inside the header. In property mode, comments are displayed using a CSS-formatted dashed-line below the name of the column. The comment is shown as a tool-tip for that column.
.. config:option:: $cfg['FirstDayOfCalendar'] :type: integer :default: 0 This will define the first day of week in the calendar. The number can be set from 0 to 6, which represents the seven days of the week, Sunday to Saturday respectively. This value can also be configured by the user in :guilabel:`Settings` -> :guilabel:`Features` -> :guilabel:`General` -> :guilabel:`First day of calendar` field.
Text fields
.. config:option:: $cfg['CharEditing'] :type: string :default: ``'input'`` Defines which type of editing controls should be used for CHAR and VARCHAR columns. Applies to data editing and also to the default values in structure editing. Possible values are: * input - this allows to limit size of text to size of columns in MySQL, but has problems with newlines in columns * textarea - no problems with newlines in columns, but also no length limitations
.. config:option:: $cfg['MinSizeForInputField'] :type: integer :default: 4 Defines the minimum size for input fields generated for CHAR and VARCHAR columns.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxSizeForInputField'] :type: integer :default: 60 Defines the maximum size for input fields generated for CHAR and VARCHAR columns.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TextareaCols'] :type: integer :default: 40

.. config:option:: $cfg['CharTextareaCols'] :type: integer :default: 40
.. config:option:: $cfg['CharTextareaRows'] :type: integer :default: 7 Number of columns and rows for the textareas. This value will be emphasized (*2) for :term:`SQL` query textareas and (*1.25) for :term:`SQL` textareas inside the query window. The Char* values are used for CHAR and VARCHAR editing (if configured via :config:option:`$cfg['CharEditing']`). .. versionchanged:: 5.0.0 The default value was changed from 2 to 7.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LongtextDoubleTextarea'] :type: boolean :default: true Defines whether textarea for LONGTEXT columns should have double size.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TextareaAutoSelect'] :type: boolean :default: false Defines if the whole textarea of the query box will be selected on click.
.. config:option:: $cfg['EnableAutocompleteForTablesAndColumns'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to enable autocomplete for table and column names in any SQL query box.
SQL query box settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['Edit'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to display an edit link to change a query in any SQL Query box.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['Explain'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to display a link to explain a SELECT query in any SQL Query box.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['ShowAsPHP'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to display a link to wrap a query in PHP code in any SQL Query box.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['Refresh'] :type: boolean :default: true Whether to display a link to refresh a query in any SQL Query box.
Web server upload/save/import directories
If PHP is running in safe mode, all directories must be owned by the same user
as the owner of the phpMyAdmin scripts.
If the directory where phpMyAdmin is installed is subject to an
open_basedir
restriction, you need to create a temporary directory in some
directory accessible by the PHP interpreter.
For security reasons, all directories should be outside the tree published by
webserver. If you cannot avoid having this directory published by webserver,
limit access to it either by web server configuration (for example using
.htaccess or web.config files) or place at least an empty :file:`index.html`
file there, so that directory listing is not possible. However as long as the
directory is accessible by web server, an attacker can guess filenames to download
the files.
.. config:option:: $cfg['UploadDir'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The name of the directory where :term:`SQL` files have been uploaded by other means than phpMyAdmin (for example, FTP). Those files are available under a drop-down box when you click the database or table name, then the Import tab. If you want different directory for each user, %u will be replaced with username. Please note that the file names must have the suffix ".sql" (or ".sql.bz2" or ".sql.gz" if support for compressed formats is enabled). This feature is useful when your file is too big to be uploaded via :term:`HTTP`, or when file uploads are disabled in PHP. .. warning:: Please see top of this chapter (:ref:`web-dirs`) for instructions how to setup this directory and how to make its usage secure. .. seealso:: See :ref:`faq1_16` for alternatives.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SaveDir'] :type: string :default: ``''`` The name of the webserver directory where exported files can be saved. If you want a different directory for each user, %u will be replaced with the username. Please note that the directory must exist and has to be writable for the user running webserver. .. warning:: Please see top of this chapter (:ref:`web-dirs`) for instructions how to setup this directory and how to make its usage secure.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TempDir'] :type: string :default: ``'./tmp/'`` The name of the directory where temporary files can be stored. It is used for several purposes, currently: * The templates cache which speeds up page loading. * ESRI Shapefiles import, see :ref:`faq6_30`. * To work around limitations of ``open_basedir`` for uploaded files, see :ref:`faq1_11`. This directory should have as strict permissions as possible as the only user required to access this directory is the one who runs the webserver. If you have root privileges, simply make this user owner of this directory and make it accessible only by it: .. code-block:: sh chown www-data:www-data tmp chmod 700 tmp If you cannot change owner of the directory, you can achieve a similar setup using :term:`ACL`: .. code-block:: sh chmod 700 tmp setfacl -m "g:www-data:rwx" tmp setfacl -d -m "g:www-data:rwx" tmp If neither of above works for you, you can still make the directory :command:`chmod 777`, but it might impose risk of other users on system reading and writing data in this directory. .. warning:: Please see top of this chapter (:ref:`web-dirs`) for instructions how to setup this directory and how to make its usage secure.
Various display setting
.. config:option:: $cfg['RepeatCells'] :type: integer :default: 100 Repeat the headers every X cells, or 0 to deactivate.
.. config:option:: $cfg['QueryHistoryDB'] :type: boolean :default: false
.. config:option:: $cfg['QueryHistoryMax'] :type: integer :default: 25 If :config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryDB']` is set to ``true``, all your Queries are logged to a table, which has to be created by you (see :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['history']`). If set to false, all your queries will be appended to the form, but only as long as your window is opened they remain saved. When using the JavaScript based query window, it will always get updated when you click on a new table/db to browse and will focus if you click on :guilabel:`Edit SQL` after using a query. You can suppress updating the query window by checking the box :guilabel:`Do not overwrite this query from outside the window` below the query textarea. Then you can browse tables/databases in the background without losing the contents of the textarea, so this is especially useful when composing a query with tables you first have to look in. The checkbox will get automatically checked whenever you change the contents of the textarea. Please uncheck the button whenever you definitely want the query window to get updated even though you have made alterations. If :config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryDB']` is set to ``true`` you can specify the amount of saved history items using :config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryMax']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowseMIME'] :type: boolean :default: true Enable :ref:`transformations`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxExactCount'] :type: integer :default: 50000 For InnoDB tables, determines for how large tables phpMyAdmin should get the exact row count using ``SELECT COUNT``. If the approximate row count as returned by ``SHOW TABLE STATUS`` is smaller than this value, ``SELECT COUNT`` will be used, otherwise the approximate count will be used. .. versionchanged:: 4.8.0 The default value was lowered to 50000 for performance reasons. .. versionchanged:: 4.2.6 The default value was changed to 500000. .. seealso:: :ref:`faq3_11`
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxExactCountViews'] :type: integer :default: 0 For VIEWs, since obtaining the exact count could have an impact on performance, this value is the maximum to be displayed, using a ``SELECT COUNT ... LIMIT``. Setting this to 0 bypasses any row counting.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NaturalOrder'] :type: boolean :default: true Sorts database and table names according to natural order (for example, t1, t2, t10). Currently implemented in the navigation panel and in Database view, for the table list.
.. config:option:: $cfg['InitialSlidersState'] :type: string :default: ``'closed'`` If set to ``'closed'``, the visual sliders are initially in a closed state. A value of ``'open'`` does the reverse. To completely disable all visual sliders, use ``'disabled'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['UserprefsDisallow'] :type: array :default: array() Contains names of configuration options (keys in ``$cfg`` array) that users can't set through user preferences. For possible values, refer to classes under :file:`libraries/classes/Config/Forms/User/`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['UserprefsDeveloperTab'] :type: boolean :default: false .. versionadded:: 3.4.0 Activates in the user preferences a tab containing options for developers of phpMyAdmin.

.. config:option:: $cfg['TitleDefault'] :type: string :default: ``'@HTTP_HOST@ | @PHPMYADMIN@'`` Allows you to specify window's title bar. You can use :ref:`faq6_27`.
Theme manager settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['ThemeManager'] :type: boolean :default: true Enables user-selectable themes. See :ref:`faqthemes`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ThemeDefault'] :type: string :default: ``'pmahomme'`` The default theme (a subdirectory under :file:`./themes/`).
.. config:option:: $cfg['ThemePerServer'] :type: boolean :default: false Whether to allow different theme for each server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['FontSize'] :type: string :default: '82%' .. deprecated:: 5.0.0 This setting was removed as the browser is more efficient, thus no need of this option. Font size to use, is applied in CSS.
Default queries
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultQueryTable'] :type: string :default: ``'SELECT * FROM @TABLE@ WHERE 1'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultQueryDatabase'] :type: string :default: ``''`` Default queries that will be displayed in query boxes when user didn't specify any. You can use standard :ref:`faq6_27`.
MySQL settings
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultFunctions'] :type: array :default: ``array('FUNC_CHAR' => '', 'FUNC_DATE' => '', 'FUNC_NUMBER' => '', 'FUNC_SPATIAL' => 'GeomFromText', 'FUNC_UUID' => 'UUID', 'first_timestamp' => 'NOW')`` Functions selected by default when inserting/changing row, Functions are defined for meta types as (``FUNC_NUMBER``, ``FUNC_DATE``, ``FUNC_CHAR``, ``FUNC_SPATIAL``, ``FUNC_UUID``) and for ``first_timestamp``, which is used for first timestamp column in table. Example configuration .. code-block:: php $cfg['DefaultFunctions'] = [ 'FUNC_CHAR' => '', 'FUNC_DATE' => '', 'FUNC_NUMBER' => '', 'FUNC_SPATIAL' => 'ST_GeomFromText', 'FUNC_UUID' => 'UUID', 'first_timestamp' => 'UTC_TIMESTAMP', ];

Examples
See following configuration snippets for typical setups of phpMyAdmin.
Basic example
Example configuration file, which can be copied to :file:`config.inc.php` to
get some core configuration layout; it is distributed with phpMyAdmin as
:file:`config.sample.inc.php`. Please note that it does not contain all
configuration options, only the most frequently used ones.
.. literalinclude:: ../config.sample.inc.php :language: php
Warning
Don’t use the controluser ‘pma’ if it does not yet exist and don’t use ‘pmapass’
as password.
Example for signon authentication
This example uses :file:`examples/signon.php` to demonstrate usage of :ref:`auth_signon`:
<?php $i = 0; $i++; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'signon'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonSession'] = 'SignonSession'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonURL'] = 'examples/signon.php';
Example for IP address limited autologin
If you want to automatically login when accessing phpMyAdmin locally while asking
for a password when accessing remotely, you can achieve it using following snippet:
if ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] === '127.0.0.1') { $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'yourpassword'; } else { $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; }
Note
Filtering based on IP addresses isn’t reliable over the internet, use it
only for local address.
Example for using multiple MySQL servers
You can configure any number of servers using :config:option:`$cfg[‘Servers’]`,
following example shows two of them:
<?php // The string is a hexadecimal representation of a 32-bytes long string of random bytes. $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = sodium_hex2bin('f16ce59f45714194371b48fe362072dc3b019da7861558cd4ad29e4d6fb13851'); $i = 0; $i++; // server 1 : $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'no1'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost'; // more options for #1 ... $i++; // server 2 : $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'no2'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'remote.host.addr';//or ip:'10.9.8.1' // this server must allow remote clients, e.g., host 10.9.8.% // not only in mysql.host but also in the startup configuration // more options for #2 ... // end of server sections $cfg['ServerDefault'] = 0; // to choose the server on startup // further general options ...
Google Cloud SQL with SSL
To connect to Google Could SQL, you currently need to disable certificate
verification. This is caused by the certificate being issued for CN matching
your instance name, but you connect to an IP address and PHP tries to match
these two. With verification you end up with error message like:
Peer certificate CN=`api-project-851612429544:pmatest' did not match expected CN=`8.8.8.8'
Warning
With disabled verification your traffic is encrypted, but you’re open to
man in the middle attacks.
To connect phpMyAdmin to Google Cloud SQL using SSL download the client and
server certificates and tell phpMyAdmin to use them:
// IP address of your instance $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '8.8.8.8'; // Use SSL for connection $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl'] = true; // Client secret key $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key'] = '../client-key.pem'; // Client certificate $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert'] = '../client-cert.pem'; // Server certification authority $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca'] = '../server-ca.pem'; // Disable SSL verification (see above note) $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify'] = false;
.. seealso:: :ref:`ssl`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca']`, :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify']`, <https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72048>
Amazon RDS Aurora with SSL
To connect phpMyAdmin to an Amazon RDS Aurora MySQL database instance using SSL,
download the CA server certificate and tell phpMyAdmin to use it:

Только, чтобы быть ясным, это не установка PhpMyAdmin, это — установка конфигурации Apache2, и мы должны создать новый VirtualHost с этой целью.
1. Понимание конфигурации по умолчанию PhpMyAdmin. По умолчанию (в рамках Ubuntu 16.04) PhpMyAdmin включен (и включен) в конфигурацию Apache (для всего VirtualHosts!) через этот дополнительный конфигурационный файл:
/etc/apache2/conf-enabled/phpmyadmin.conf
Этот файл является символьной ссылкой на файл /etc/apache2/conf-available/phpmyadmin.conf
, который является символьной ссылкой на файл /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
, который будет использоваться на следующем шаге.
2. Создайте новый конфигурационный файл VirtualHost. Давайте назовем его phpmyadmin.conf
и создайте его nano
(или можно использовать любимый текстовый редактор):
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/phpmyadmin.conf
Содержание этого файла должно быть похожим:
Listen 99
<VirtualHost *:99>
ServerName localhost
<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin>
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
DocumentRoot /usr/share/phpmyadmin
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/phpmyadmin.error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/phpmyadmin.access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Где:
-
Listen 99
дает Apache2 команду слушать на порте99
. Как @L.D.James говорит, что можно вставить эту директиву/etc/apache2/ports.conf
или можно оставить его здесь; -
<VirtualHost *:99>...</VirtualHost>
определяет VirtualHost, который обработает форму запросов все интерфейсы (*
) на порте:99
. -
ServerName localhost
эта директива является дополнительной и может быть настроена согласно Вашим потребностям. (Обычно там имейтеServerName
набор на уровне Сервера — в/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
); -
<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin>...</Directory>
эта директива является дополнительной потому что права доступа для/usr/share/
обычно устанавливаются в/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
. Но можно добавить определенные правила здесь, например, Вы можетеSet Up Password Authentication
; -
DocumentRoot /usr/share/phpmyadmin
эта директива наборы/usr/share/phpmyadmin
как каталог, который формирует основное дерево документов, видимое из сети для текущего VirtualHost; -
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
эта директива включает конфигурацию phpMyAdmin по умолчанию в конфигурацию Apache. Таким образом/etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
будет включен только для текущего VirtualHost! Вместо этой директивы Вы можете скопировать/вставить содержание/etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
в этом месте.
3. Переключите конфигурацию Apache и перезапустите ее.
sudo a2disconf phpmyadmin
sudo a2ensite phpmyadmin
sudo systemctl restart apache2.service
Где:
a2disconf phpmyadmin
отключит конфигурацию phpMyAdmin по умолчанию, описанную в 1.a2ensite phpmyadmin
включит новый VirtualHost, описанный в 2.
!!. Править /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
и комментарий (#
) первое Alias
директива как thath:
#Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin
Этот шаг является дополнительным, но иначе http://localhost:99
и http://localhost:99/phpmyadmin
обеспечит идентичный результат, таким образом, я предполагаю, что нам не нужно это
!!. Если Вы хотите, чтобы этот новый VirtualHost был доступен с внешней стороны, не забывают добавлять порт 99
в правила Вашего брандмауэра. При использовании UFW, можно сделать это этой командой:
sudo ufw allow 99/tcp
С iptables можно сделать это этой командой:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 99 -j ACCEPT

Добавляющий доступ через порт 99 быстр, и легкий
Добавляют порт 99 к Вашей конфигурации Apache2. Редактирование /etc/apache2/ports.conf
. Добавьте директиву Listen 99
:
# If you just change the port or add more ports here, you will likely also # have to change the VirtualHost statement in # /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf Listen 80 Listen 99 <IfModule ssl_module> Listen 443 </IfModule> <IfModule mod_gnutls.c> Listen 443 </IfModule> # vim: syntax=apache ts=4 sw=4 sts=4 sr noet
Это добавляет порт 99 к доступному доступу. Для отключения порт 80 , где у Вас может только быть доступ через порт 99 прокомментируйте или удалите Listen 80
из конфигурации.
Отключение порта по умолчанию немного более подробно
При большей части обстоятельства, запрещение порта по умолчанию 80 не необходимо.
, Если у Вас есть другие сайты, что у Вас должен быть доступ к порту 80 и Listen
директива к тому Virtualhost.
, С другой стороны, Вы могли ограничить Phpmyadmin только одним определенным портом путем создания хост версии Phpmyadmin и использовать эти , Слушают 99 директива к тому виртуальному хосту.
Детали для создания виртуального хоста к Apache2 могут быть найдены здесь :
Делают символьную ссылку на /usr/share/phpmyadmin
virtualhost document root
