PHPMyAdmin is an open-source application created in PHP that provides the administration of a MySQL or MariaDB database from a comfortable web interface. It is simply installed on the server, we make a few small configurations and that’s it. That’s it. Without consuming many resources you will have a quality application.
So, let’s get started.

Install PHPMyAdmin on Fedora 34/33

Fedora 33 is characterized by fairly comprehensive repositories. So we won’t have any problems installing it.

So, open a terminal and update Fedora 34/33.

sudo dnf update

After that, you can start the installation of PHPMyAdmin by running the following command

sudo dnf install phpMyAdmin

If you do not have a web server installed, the Apache web server will be installed during the process.

Therefore, we have to start and enable the Apache webserver to load along with the system.

sudo systemctl start httpd
sudo systemctl enable httpd

After that, check the status of the service to see if everything is in order.

sudo systemctl status httpd
● httpd.service - The Apache HTTP Server
      Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
     Drop-In: /usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service.d

              ├─2154 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
              ├─2155 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
              ├─2156 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
              └─2370 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND

 May 08 19:25:13 osradar systemd[1]: Started The Apache HTTP Server.
 May 08 19:25:13 osradar httpd[2152]: Server configured, listening on: port 80

So all is well. Also, remember that port 80 has to be open to accept connections even if it is from localhost and logically if PHPMyAdmin is installed on a server.

firewall-cmd --add-port=80/tcp --permanent
Success
firewall-cmd --add-port=443/tcp --permanent
Success
firewall-cmd --reload
Success

Configuring PHPMyAdmin

If you have installed the application on your computer locally, you can open a web browser and access http://localhost/phpmyadmin to see the login screen.

But, if you have done this installation on a remote server, which can solve some problems, then you may want to make a prior adjustment to the Apache configuration file.

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

And change the <Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin> section to this one

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin>
    AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
    Require all granted
</Directory>

Save the changes and now you will be able to access from any computer via http://server/phpmyadmin

So, enjoy it.

Conclusion

PHPMyAdmin is a vital tool for many developers. It allows you to visualize MySQL or MariaDB data quickly through a well-designed graphical interface that does not consume many computer resources. Thanks to this post, you can enjoy the latest stable version of PHPMyAdmin on Fedora 34/ 33

The post Install PHPMyAdmin on Fedora 34/33 appeared first on Linux Windows and android Tutorials.

PHPMyAdmin is an open-source application created in PHP that provides the administration of a MySQL or MariaDB database from a comfortable web interface. It is simply installed on the server, we make a few small configurations and that’s it. That’s it. Without consuming many resources you will have a quality application.

So, let’s get started.

Install the latest PHPMyAdmin on CentOS 8

Despite being one of the most popular tools available for the administration of MariaDB / MySQL it is not in the CentOS 8 repositories. However, it is possible to get the latest version thanks to the REMI repository.

So, let’s go for it.

Note: All the commands will be performed as the root user. In case your user has sudo access, you can use it before executing each command.

Open a terminal and add the EPEL repository.

dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm

After it is added, the REMI repository must be added.

dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpm

Now the next step is to disable the PHP 7.2 module which is the default in the CentOS 8 installation

dnf module reset php:7.2

And now enable the PHP 7.4 module of the REMI module.

dnf module enable php:remi-7.4

The next steps are to set up LAMP or LEMP on CentOS 8. This is up to you and the server you will be using.

For this example, I will install Apache.

dnf install httpd php-session php-json php-hash php-ctype php-mbstring php-zip php-gd php-curl php-openssl php-xml mariadb-server

And finally, it installs PHPMyAdmin

dnf --enablerepo=remi install phpMyAdmin

For PHPMyAdmin to run with Apache it is necessary to make a small change in the configuration file

nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

And in the section leave it this way:

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin>
    AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
    Require all granted
</Directory>

Save the changes and close the editor.

To apply the changes in Apache, just restart the service

sudo systemctl restart httpd

Then, open a web browser and go to http://your-server/phpmyadmin and you will see the following screen:

So, enjoy it.

What is Localhost?

This is a service offered by applications such as XAMP, MAMP among others, which allows you to simulate all the conditions of a real server. To do this, use the resources of the computer to install packages of PHP and MySQL. Precisely, all these tools in the webserver allow WordPress to work. This local server is ideal for testing plugins and themes, as it offers a development environment almost identical to a real server. Also, it’s a great idea to test WordPress before publishing it on the website.

How to reset the password at the Localhost.

Under real server conditions, WordPress allows you to reset your password using your registered email. Since it is enough to enter the mail so that the system sends a link to be able to recover it. However, in a local server environment, this solution is not possible. Since the mail function is disabled. That is, the system does not send the recovery email. Of course, it is possible to enable this function by editing some lines of code. However, today I propose an alternative solution.

How to recover your password on Localhost using phpMyAdmin.

When you install a local web server, another server called PhpMyAdmin is also installed. In effect, this is used to manage, modify, create, or delete databases. In fact, from this section, the MySQL system is used to create the database for WordPress. Well, the first thing you have to do is check which is the database created for WordPress. With this intention, check the file wp-config.php. There is the name of the database used.

Then, you just need to log in to the phpMyAdmin server. Once there, please click on the WordPress database.

Immediately all the tables in the database will be displayed. Please select wp-users. This is where the information for each user is stored.

Then click on Edit.

From now on the method involves a few simple steps. First, select the value corresponding to the administrator user. That is, the parameter you usually use to log in to the server. Then select the MD5 function as this is used by WordPress to generate the password. Then in the password field, select the new value in plain text. Finally, press the Go button to set the changes.

After this step, you will be able to login to WordPress with your new password. That’s it! Simple but very useful, right? I hope you can manage your local server more efficiently. Well, we finally saw how to reset your WordPress password on Localhost. Bye!

Prerequisites

To make use of this tool, the webserver must obviously be configured and running correctly. In like manner, here in osradar.com, I show you how to install and configure the following elements:

• Any web server running and configured. In this case, we will use Apache.
• A database manager. For this purpose, we will use MySql.
• PHP.

Download the latest version of phpMyAdmin.

In the first place, go to the official phpMyAdmin website and download the latest version of the tool from there At the time of writing this post, the version is 5.0.

Then unzip the file and rename it to phpMyAdmin. Then drag this folder to the next path: C:\Apache24\htdocs

Set up some phpMyAdmin files.

To ensure the correct functioning of the tool, it is necessary to make some previous configurations. First, inside the program folder, locate the file config.sample.inc.php. Then, rename it to config.inc.php.

Finally, you have to modify it with your favorite text editor. Please select the next line:

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = ''; /* YOU MUST FILL IN THIS FOR COOKIE AUTH! */

Enter a value of your choice, minimum of 32 characters long:

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = ''; /* k7b862qwq4ygj8a2hkczmd6spqsnspnkd */

Finally, save the configuration file.

Enable the necessary extensions.

On the other hand, it is necessary to enable the extensions required for the operation of the tool. With this intention, remove the ; at the beginning of the extension, as shown here. With this intention, open the file php.ini located in the php folder.

The extensions to be enabled are the following:

extension=php_mbstring.dll
extension=mysqli

Finally, save the configuration and restart the Apache server. With this in mind, press the Win+R combination and run the services.msc command. Once the list of services is open, locate the Apache HTTP Server, and restart it.

Login to phpMyAdmin

Once you have made your settings, it is time to login to phpMyAdmin. To do so, please open the following address in your web browser: http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ Once there, please enter your MySQL username and password:

After entering the credentials, the tool’s Dashboard will be displayed. Additionally, when you scroll down the page, a warning sign appears.

This warning is shown because the tool needs a database to work. In case you have not created it before, it is possible to import it from the same installation folder. With this in mind, please click on the Import menu. Then navigate to the following path: C:\Apache24\htdocs\phpMyAdmin\sql. And from there, select create_tables.sql

Consequently, a database will be created under the name phpmyadmin

Once the database is created, you have to exit the tool by clicking on the door with the small green arrow.

Then, modify the values referred to the user who will manipulate the database. In addition, it enables the database and table storage parameters. To do this, it eliminates the double slashes in front of them. Likewise, in the line corresponding to user control, it adds localhost. Also, it modifies the value controluser and controlpass with the user and the password of MySQL. To graph the process I show you the code before editing it and where you should make the changes.

Below is the appearance of the correctly modified phpMyAdmin configuration file.

Save the configuration and go back to phpMyAdmin. The warning message should have disappeared.

Ultimately, we have seen how to install phpMyAdmin on Windows 10. This tool facilitates the management and administration of MySQL. I hope you enjoyed this post. See you soon!

The post How to install phpMyAdmin on Windows 10 appeared first on Linux Windows and android Tutorials.

I have to admit that these last days I have liked much more the technology of Docker compose. It seems a very simple and fast way to install certain applications. However, from my point of view, a bit of flexibility is lost in the configurations since they are images already created from a base. Of course, we will be able to configure some things but not everything.

Well, PHPMyAdmin is an application that is quite easy to install in Linux because it is available in most of the official refuels of the distributions. However, installing the latest version available from its source code may frighten some users. So this is a good way to install it.

Briefly, I will tell you that Docker compose is more thought of production environments where compatibility should be as high as possible. This is precisely the great advantage of Docker images that we will be able to use in any supported system thanks to the technology of containers. Then, these steps can be done from any Linux distribution that has installed Docker and Docker Compose.

So, let us start.

Install Docker and Docker Compose on Linux

The first step is to have Docker installed in the system, obviously.

• If you are using Ubuntu: How to install Docker on Ubuntu 18.04?
• For CentOS 8: How to install Docker on CentOS 8?
• For CentOS 7: How to install Docker CE on CentOS 7?
• If you use Windows: How to install Docker in Windows 10?
• Or, if you are using Debian 10: How to install Docker on Debian 10?

And using your distribution’s package manager, you can install Docker Compose. For example:

:~$ sudo apt docker-compose

For Debian, Ubuntu and derivatives.

:~$ sudo yum install docker-compose

Or, for RHEL, CentOS and derivatives.

Install PHPMyAdmin using Docker Compose

The official PHPMyAdmin image requires the MySQL or MariaDB image to be installed. Anyway, in the docker-compose file, I will also add it in case you do not have it installed.

First, I will create a new folder and within it I will create the docker-compose.yml file.

:~$ mkdir phpmyadmin
:~$ cd phpmyadmin

Then, create the file and add the following:

:~$ nano docker-compose.yml

version: '2'

  volumes:
    db:

  services:
    db:
      image: mariadb
      command: --transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED --binlog-format=ROW
      restart: always
      volumes:
        - db:/var/lib/mysql
      environment:
        - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=1234osradar
        - MYSQL_PASSWORD=1234osradar
        - MYSQL_DATABASE=example    
        - MYSQL_USER=osradar
  app:
     image: phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin
     container_name: phpmyadmin
     environment:
      - PMA_ARBITRARY=1
     restart: always
     links:
      - db
     ports:
      - 8080:80
     volumes:
      - /sessions

Save the changes and close the file.

The file itself is explicit but we are going to explain the most important parts. In the image we can see that we will try to raise two services: one is mariadb and the other PHPMyAdmin.

First we configure MariaDB that will work as the database manager. And we configured the environment variables that will allow us to define the password of the root user, the normal user and the user name.

In the case of PHPMyAdmin is even simpler because by default only requires that we specify within the environment if it is an arbitrary host. Then, we define the port where we will have access, in this case, I left the 8080. All better explained in the official documentation of the PHPMyAdmin image.

Finally, run docker compose to install PHPMyAdmin.

:~$ sudo docker-compose up -d

Then, we will be able to access from our browser using the IP address of the server or the domain name with port 8080 that we specify. Then, log in with your credentials:

Finally you will see the main screen.

So, that is it.

Conclusion

In a production server, we look very much for the productivity and compatibility of the applications. In this sense, using Docker images guarantees compatibility and ease of use. Today, you have learned how to install PHPMyAdmin using this technology and we will be able to realize how simple it is.

Some features of PHPMyAdmin

PHPMyAdmin is a web application that is installed on a server to manage a MySQL or MariaDB instance. These are some of the main features:

• Intuitive web interface.
• Support for most MySQL features:
  • browse and drop databases, tables, views, fields and indexes.
  • create, copy, drop, rename and alter databases, tables, fields and indexes.
  • maintenance server, databases and tables, with proposals on server configuration.
  • execute, edit and bookmark any SQL-statement, even batch-queries.
  • manage MySQL user accounts and privileges.
  • manage stored procedures and triggers.
• Import data from CSV and SQL.
• Export data to various formats: CSV, SQL, XML, PDF, ISO/IEC 26300 – OpenDocument Text and Spreadsheet, Word, and others.

Install PHPMyAdmin on Debian 10 Buster

1) Install LAMP on Debian 10

As it is a web application, it requires a fully functional LAMP server. Of course, PHPMyAdmin is compatible with Nginx but in this case, we will focus on Apache.

Then, install LAMP on Debian 10. For that, we have a tutorial to help you with that:

Read, How to install LAMP on Debian 10 Buster?

After that, you can continue with the installation.

2) Download and install PHPMyAdmin on Debian 10

At the time of writing this post, the latest stable version of PHPMyAdmin is 4.9.0.1. You can always go to the project website and check which is the latest stable version.

Now we proceed to download it:

:~$ cd /tmp/
:~$ wget https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.9.0.1/phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.tar.gz

Next, decompress it and move it to /usr/share/phpmyadmin.

:~$ tar xvf phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.tar.gz
:~$ sudo mv phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages /usr/share/phpmyadmin

For PHPMyAdmin to work properly it is necessary to create a temporary folder dedicated to the application.

:~$ sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp
:~$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/lib/phpmyadmin

Then, create the configuration folder for PHPMyAdmin and copy the default configuration file into it.

:~$ sudo mkdir /etc/phpmyadmin/
:~$ sudo cp /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.sample.inc.php  /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

A passphrase must be defined in the PHPMyAdmin configuration file. It is also necessary to indicate which is the path of the newly created PHPMyAdmin temporary folder.

:~$ sudo nano /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = '[passphrase]'; 
$cfg['TempDir'] = '/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp';

Save the changes and close the file.

The next step is to create a new virtual host to make PHPMyAdmin work fully. To do this, create a new file and paste the following:

:~$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/phpmyadmin.conf

Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin

<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin>
    Options SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
    DirectoryIndex index.php

    <IfModule mod_php5.c>
        <IfModule mod_mime.c>
            AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
        </IfModule>
        <FilesMatch ".+\.php$">
            SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
        </FilesMatch>

        php_value include_path .
        php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp
        php_admin_value open_basedir /usr/share/phpmyadmin/:/etc/phpmyadmin/:/var/lib/phpmyadmin/:/usr/share/php/php-gettext/:/usr/share/php/php-php-gettext/:/usr/share/javascript/:/usr/share/php/tcpdf/:/usr/share/doc/phpmyadmin/:/usr/share/php/phpseclib/
        php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 0
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule mod_php.c>
        <IfModule mod_mime.c>
            AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
        </IfModule>
        <FilesMatch ".+\.php$">
            SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
        </FilesMatch>

        php_value include_path .
        php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp
        php_admin_value open_basedir /usr/share/phpmyadmin/:/etc/phpmyadmin/:/var/lib/phpmyadmin/:/usr/share/php/php-gettext/:/usr/share/php/php-php-gettext/:/usr/share/javascript/:/usr/share/php/tcpdf/:/usr/share/doc/phpmyadmin/:/usr/share/php/phpseclib/
        php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 0
    </IfModule>

</Directory>

<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin/setup>
    <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
        <IfModule mod_authn_file.c>
            AuthType Basic
            AuthName "phpMyAdmin Setup"
            AuthUserFile /etc/phpmyadmin/htpasswd.setup
        </IfModule>
        Require valid-user
    </IfModule>
</Directory>


<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin/templates>
    Require all denied
</Directory>
<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries>
    Require all denied
</Directory>
<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin/setup/lib>
    Require all denied
</Directory>

Save the changes and close the file.

Next enable the new virtualhost.

:~$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
:~$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

Now you can open your web browser and go to http://your-server/phpmyadmin. You will see this:

So, that is it.

Conclusion

PHPMyAdmin is a simple, fast and easy to install the application with which managing a MySQL or MariaDB instance becomes much easier. It is of great help to both novices and more experienced developers.

The “Access denied for root” error on PhpMyAdmin log in

The problem arises because, from version 5.7 of MySQL and MariaDB 10, the root user will only be able to log in if it is executed as superuser. That is, PhpMyAdmin runs through the non-root user of the operating system. Then, from PhpMyAdmin the root user cannot be logged in.

This situation can be very annoying but it has its reason to be. Those of us who administer databases know that it is not recommended to leave the root user enabled. This is because if the root user is compromised, all data will be compromised. The correct security policy is not to allow its use unless you use remote access with strong security policies.

On the other hand, PhpMyAdmin also understands this situation and does not attempt to provide a solution that could compromise server security.

So, what is the solution?

The optimal solution is to create a new user with all permissions on the database. With this, you will be able to perform many operations from PhpMyAdmin without any logging problems.

To do this, we need to open a terminal and connect to our MySQL or MariaDB server.

Note that to use the root user in MySQL / MariaDB you must use sudo. If you remove it, it will give the same error as in PhpMyAdmin. That is, the error comes from MySQL / MariaDB.

:~$ mysql -u root -p
ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'

So, you have to use sudo or to be the system root user.

:~$ sudo mysql -u root -p

Next, create the new user.

>CREATE USER 'new_user'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'your-password';

Note: The % sign means that the new user will be able to connect to the MySQL / MariaDB server from any IP.

Then assign the permissions to this new user.

> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'new_user'@'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Now open your PHPMyAdmin and you should be able to log in with your new user.

So, for security reasons PhpMyAdmin cannot log in as root user, however to solve the situation you can create another user with similar permissions.

Conclusion

In this post, you have learned to solve The “Access denied for root” error on PhpMyAdmin log in. This way you will be able to enjoy this great MySQL / MariaDB administration program.

What is PhpMyAdmin?

PhpMyAdmin is a web-based open source tool that helps manipulate MySQL or MariaDB. It is written in PHP and is a free alternative to many paying customers. It supports many of the most common operations performed with these database managers. For example, manipulation and control of data, tables, user as well as export and import data.

On the other hand, PhpMyAdmin has extensive documentation that makes it easy to use. In addition, it has support for many languages so you will not have problems finding yours.

It can be said that PhpMyAdmin is a professional community support tool and is very useful to use.

So, let us start to get the latest PhpMyAdmin on Ubuntu 18.04.

Install the latest PhpMyAdmin on Ubuntu 18.04

1) Install LAMP stack

For better or worse, PhpMyAdmin is a web application. This implies that the necessary software to run a web application must be installed on our computer. That is to say, you have to install LAMP.

However, you can read our post about How to install LAMP on Ubuntu 18.04?

On the other hand, it is good to note that to install PHP and its modules, I recommend these:

:~$ sudo apt install php7.2 libapache2-mod-php7.2 php7.2-common php7.2-curl php7.2-mbstring php7.2-xmlrpc php7.2-mysql php7.2-json

2) Download and install PhpMyAdmin on Ubuntu 18.04

Now it’s time to install PhpMyAdmin. As I mentioned at the beginning, Ubuntu has this tool in its repositories, but it’s a bit old. The best way to install it is through its website.

Open a terminal and run:

:~$ cd /tmp
:~$ wget https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.8.5/phpMyAdmin-4.8.5-all-languages.zip

Then, decompress it. And move it to /usr/share/phpmyadmin.

:~$ sudo apt install unzip
:~$ unzip phpMyAdmin-4.8.5-all-languages.zip
:~$ sudo mv phpMyAdmin-4.8.5-all-languages /usr/share/phpmyadmin

PhpMyAdmin handles temporary files. It’s a good idea to create a folder to do this. Then, set the correct permission to it.

:~$ sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp
:~$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/lib/phpmyadmin

Then, you also need to create a configuration folder for PhpMyAdmin.

:~$ sudo mkdir /etc/phpmyadmin/

After this, create the initial PhpMyAdmin configuration file. Also, inside that file, you have to change the access password and define the temporary folder.

:~$ sudo cp /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.sample.inc.php  /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
:~$ sudo nano /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'your-password'; 
$cfg['TempDir'] = '/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp';

Press CTRL + O to save the changes and CTRL + X to exit.

The next step is to make a virtual host for PhpMyAdmin.

:~$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/phpmyadmin.conf

So, add the following:

Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin

<Directory /usr/share/phpmyadmin>
    Options SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
    DirectoryIndex index.php

    <IfModule mod_php5.c>
        <IfModule mod_mime.c>
            AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
        </IfModule>
        <FilesMatch ".+\.php$">
            SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
        </FilesMatch>

        php_value include_path .
        php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp
        php_admin_value open_basedir /usr/share/phpmyadmin/:/etc/phpmyadmin/:/var/lib/phpmyadmin/:/usr/share/php/php-gettext/:/usr/share/php/php-php-gettext/:/usr/share/javascript/:/usr/share/php/tcpdf/:/usr/share/doc/phpmyadmin/:/usr/share/php/phpseclib/
        php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 0

Now, you can access to PhpMyAdmin using the web browser. http://server/phpmyadmin. Then, Just login with your username and password.

And that’s it.

Conclusion

PhpMyAdmin is a very effective tool to manage MySQL or MariaDB quickly and professionally. This type of tools, it is advisable to have always updated, because with this we will be able to take advantage of it more.

As I mentioned at the beginning, managing data in a database that uses SQL in a terminal is not appropriate. In addition, insecure is impractical. So recently I showed you some graphical clients for Git, today I will do the same with SQL. This way you will be able to work more and better.

Let us start.

Graphical clients for SQL

1) MyWebSQL

I start with MyWebSQL. It is a web application to manage SQL databases. However, it places special emphasis on MySQL.

MyWebSQL is built with PHP so it requires a web server to function. Its graphical interface is great because it resembles a desktop application. It is well done and very well taken care of.

You can find much more information about MyWebSQL in our post about it or on their website.

2) DBeaver

DBeaver is a very powerful graphical SQL client. It is an open source desktop application that stands out for its simplicity and power. It supports many SQL database managers such as DBeaver, SQLite or PostgreSQL. That’s why many developers trust their work with SQL to DBeaver.

On the other hand, it requires Java to work so maybe those who have modest hardware will not like the idea.

We have also talked about DBeaver on our site so we invite you to stop by this post to learn how to install it.

3) PHPMyAdmin

If we have to talk about a very popular SQL tool in the educational field, that is PHPMyAdmin. It is a very popular and simple web interface for SQL language that contains everything you need to manage databases and SQL statements.

Being a web interface, it requires a web server, with all the advantages and disadvantages of the case. Ideal when you have a shared development of some application or centralized data.

Of course, PHPMyAdmin is available for Linux in a very simple way and is open source. So, you can install it on CentOS.

4) PGAdmin

If there is an SQL client specialized in PostgreSQL that is pgAdmin. This powerful PostgreSQL client is a work of art. Its interface is the best in all of Linux because it is simple and very flexible.

PgAdmin is open source and is available for all Linux through a web server and Python.

Conclusion

Here are some of the most popular graphical SQL clients on Linux. Their use makes it much easier to manage the data in our SQL database. So it only remains for you to try and tell us your experience.

PhpMyAdmin is an open source tool created with PHP to visualize and manage the data of a MySQL server in a graphical way. It has the support of a large community behind it and you can perform multiple operations on MySQL such as executing sentences, importing or exporting databases. Among other things.

So, let us start.

1. Install Apache web server and PHP

Being a web tool, the first thing we have to do is install the Apache web server. PhpMyAdmin also works with Ngnix quite efficiently. However, Apache is the easiest to use and works just as well.

So, open a terminal and run:

:~$ su
:~# yum install httpd

After that, it is necessary to install PHP. Obviously, PHP is available in the official CentOS 7 repositories, the problem is that it is a very old version and PhpMyAdmin requires at least PHP 7.1. Then, you need to install a recent version of PHP.

You can install PHP 7.2 on CentOS 7 easily using the steps shown in this post.

Then, you need to install the PHP modules to work with PhpMyAdmin.

:~# yum install php php-session php-json php-hash php-ctype php-mbstring php-zip php-gd php-curl php-openssl php-xml

Next, enable and start the Apache service.

:~# systemctl enable httpd
:~# systemctl start httpd

Then, enable Apache on the Firewall to allow access.

:~# firewall-cmd --add-service=http --permanent
:~# firewall-cmd --reload

To test if PHP is working, create a file called test.php on /var/www/html/ with this content:

:~# yum install nano
:~# nano /var/www/html/test.php

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

So, open your web browser and go to http://SERVER_IP/test.php.

So, Apache and PHP are working.

2. Install and configure MariaDB

The next step is to install MariaDB from the repositories. So it is pretty easy to do.

:~# yum install mariadb-server

After that, enable and start it.

:~# systemctl enable mariadb
:~# systemctl start mariadb

Next, configure MariaDB using the mysql_secure_installation script to set a root password.

:~# mysql_secure_installation

You can answer the questions that come up as you like. However, I recommend that you read them properly to establish the best configuration for your server. In this case, I will respond as follows: Y, N, Y, Y.

3. Install PhpMyAdmin

At the time of writing this post, the latest stable version of PhpMyAdmin is 4.8.5 the easiest way to install it is through the REMI repository.

So, install it.

:~# yum --enablerepo=remi install phpmyadmin

After that, open the PhpMyAdmin configuration file for apache to allow the connections to it.

:~# nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

In the IfModule mod_authz_core.c section, add

Require all granted.

Next, restart Apache.

:~#  systemctl restart httpd

After that, open your web browser and go to http://SERVER_IP/phpmyadmin

Log in with your user and enjoy!

That’s it.

Conclusion

PhpMyAdmin is a very useful tool to manage MySQL data in a very simple way. It is free, open source and perfectly compatible with your web servers.
