phpMyAdmin permissions for config.inc.php

phpMyAdmin permissions for config.inc.php

Running an EC2 instance, have installed phpMyAdmin and when I create the config.inc.php file (and move it to the top level directory) and then try to navigate via browser to (mydomain)/phpmyadmin and I get this:

"Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable!"

So, I ran this command:

chmod 755 config.inc.php

And then when I reload the browser page I get the default chrome "Server Error" page as though there is nothing there at all.

I have repeated the process several times, with no luck.

If you cannot work around the filesystem-related issues, the preferred solution is to avoid this verification, see

Answer by Isaac Bennetch for phpMyAdmin permissions for config.inc.php

It's possible that there's an error in the config.inc.php file (IIRC, the test for permissions comes before trying to load the file), so you should first check your webserver error log for hints about what is causing the "Server Error" message.

You can also try loading the config.inc.php file directly (http://example.com/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php or whatever your path is), that might show a better error message.

Answer by Sygmoral for phpMyAdmin permissions for config.inc.php

If chmod 0644 config.inc.php does not help, perhaps due to a filesystem issue, you can just disable the check by adding the following to the file:

$cfg['CheckConfigurationPermissions'] = false;

if you are using ubuntu and you have /opt/lampp then write the following command in the terminal.

sudo pkexec chmod 755 -R /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin  

Hope it will resolve the issue.
