What is phpMyAdmin?

phpMyAdmin is a free software tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the World Wide Web. phpMyAdmin supports a wide range of operations with MySQL. The most frequently used operations are supported by the user interface (managing databases, tables, fields, relations, indexes, users, permissions, etc), while you still have the ability to directly execute any SQL statement.

Set up phpMyAdmin on Alpine Linux

This document will be a very quick c/p guide to setup phpMyAdmin on Alpine linux. What we will setup is the following:

Edit lighttpd.conf (/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf) and uncomment the line:

Contents of /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

... include "mod_fastcgi.conf" ...

Edit mod_fastcgi.conf (/etc/lighttpd/mod_fastcgi.conf), find and change /usr/bin/php-cgi to /usr/bin/php-cgi82.

Contents of /etc/lighttpd/mod_fastcgi.conf

... "bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php-cgi82" # php-cgi ...

Start lighttpd service and add it to default runlevel

# rc-service lighttpd start # rc-update add lighttpd default

Install extra packages:

apk add mysql mysql-client php-mysql php-mysqli

Configuring MySql

/usr/bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql /etc/init.d/mysql start && rc-update add mysql default /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'password'

Installing phpMyAdmin

Download

cd /tmp wget http://ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin/3.4.3/phpMyAdmin-3.4.3-all-languages.tar.gz

Make Symlink to the phpMyAdmin folder
