Manually Create config.inc.php for phpMyAdmin


This article discusses the manual creation of config.inc.php for phpMyAdmin installation.

Manually Create config.inc.php

To manually create the file, simply use your text editor to create the file config.inc.php (you can copy config.sample.inc.php to get minimal configuration file) in the main (top-level) phpMyAdmin directory (the one that contains index.php). phpMyAdmin first loads libraries/config.default.php and then overrides those values with anything found in config.inc.php. If the default value is okay for a particular setting, there is no need to include it in config.inc.php. You’ll need a few directives to get going, a simple configuration may look like this:

<?php
// use a value of at least 32 characters
$cfg['blowfish_secret']= '1{dd0`<Q),5XP_:R9UK%%8\"EEcyH#{o';

$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'; // replace with your password
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']     = 'config';
?>
