Install phpMyAdmin on Linux Centos 6.2 without EPEL repo

Hello all,

Is there a way to install phpMyAdmin latest version on a 64bit Centos 6.2 without installing EPEL repository? I have install led rpmforge on the system and I am trying to avoid conflict between different repositories.

Thank you

Yes, download and install it from source.

Hi,

I have downloaded and uncompressed the file. How can I install it? The file is located in /tmp directory.

so you are NOT fallowing the advice/instructions on the CentOS wiki
http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories
and you DID NOT install the recommended "yum-priorities" or "yum-ProtectBase"
AS THE WARNING instructs you to do

install yum-priorities
http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities

then CONFIGURE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
set rpmforge higher than EPEL
but lower than cent and cent-updates

1= highest
99= is the default lowest

cent 1
cent update 2
rpmforge 3
epel 4

Well, first thing would be you need to "move" the package file (i.e. phpMyAdmin-3.5.0-rc2-all-languages.tar.gz )
to the directory in which you want to access it (e.g. /var/www/html/ )

Then you unpack it with

Code:

tar xzf phpMyAdmin-3.5.0-rc2-all-languages.tar.gz

and you will get a subdirectory with the name

Code:

/var/www/html/phpMyAdmin-3.5.0-rc2-all-languages

you can rename it to something else, let's say to access it easier:

Code:

mv phpMyAdmin-3.5.0-rc2-all-languages phpmyadmin

and copy the configuration file

Code:

cp config.sample.inc.php config.inc.php

then edit it ( vim config.inc.php ):

Code:

a simple configuration may look like

        this:



        <?php

        $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'ba17c1ec07d65003';  // use here a value of your choice



        $i=0;

        $i++;

        $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']    = 'cookie';

        ?>



        Or, if you prefer to not be prompted every time you log in:



        <?php



        $i=0;

        $i++;

        $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user']          = 'root';

        $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']      = 'cbb74bc'; // use here your password

        $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']    = 'config';

        ?>

Then you can access it through the web address pointing at your directory /var/www/html/phpmyadmin
like:

Code:

http://www.example.com/phpmyadmin

I don't know how your domains in Apache are configured, but change the directory paths according to it.

It's easy.

good luck

Hi,

John. I have looked at the link on Centos Wiki http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories. The link has general information about all repositories but I did not see specifically how to twist multiple repositories and their priorities. You mentioned
cent 1
cent update 2
rpmforge 3
epel 4

Did you mean to put priority for the cent 1 and cent update 2, in CentOS-Base.repo file?

[root@phpfox yum.repos.d]# ls
CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Media.repo epel-testing.repo mirrors-rpmforge-extras rpmforge.repo
CentOS-Debuginfo.repo epel.repo

Here are the repositories on my system with priority set. Are they configured correctly? Thank you.

# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.
