phpMyAdmin woes
 
Was wondering if anyone has had this problem before..

I installed phpMyAdmin with YUM from the RpmForge repository. I'm on CentOS 5.

It installed to /usr/share/phpmyadmin/.

I did
Code:
# cp -r /usr/share/phpmyadmin/ /home/example.com/public_html/phpmyadmin/
# cd /home/example.com/public_html/
# chown -R example.com:example.com phpmyadmin/
So I go to example.com/phpmyadmin, get 403 Forbidden errors. I check the Apache error log and see:
Code:
... client denied by server configuration: /usr/share/phpmyadmin/
So one, how on Earth is it somehow linking back to /usr/share/??

I did NOT do any linking, or symbolic linking, or anything of the sort. No Aliases in httpd.conf.

So, to troubleshoot I added:
Code:
Alias /phpmyadmin/ /home/example.com/public_html/phpmyadmin/
So then I no longer get any Forbidden errors and can then access phpMyAdmin (the error screen that says I need to run the config, anyway).

But... Problem #2:

I can't run setup.php in the scripts folder. The page loads, buttons don't do anything. So I manually config config.inc.php. With the manual config done, I finally go back to example.com/phpmyadmin.

So.. it doesn't load.

Check Apache error logs and see:
Code:
... user root not found: /phpmyadmin/
It's still trying to link back to /usr/share/ !!!

So I chown /usr/share/phpmyadmin/
Code:
# chown -R example.com:example.com /usr/share/phpmyadmin/

Now phpMyAdmin works.

---------------

So, why is it doing this? I made no symbolic links. There is nothing else anywhere in httpd.conf referring to phpMyAdmin other than the Alias I had to set up. I even restarted the server. Restarted all the processes.

Thanks for any help.

If you needed it, why didn't you just install it yourself (instead of using RPMs, which are probably outdated)?

The configuration files probably pointed to /usr/share because that is the default install location for the RPM.

Sorry, but

1. The RPM is completely up-to-date.
2. Config.inc.php makes no mention of /usr/share/

AFAIK that is the only config file that exists in phpMyAdmin.

So I guess I'm going to have to FTP the files onto my harddrive, and search through every single file for some mention of /usr/share. Which doesn't really make sense anyway, why would a web app have hardcoded links to something that's not even in a web root?

----------

OK, so no mention of /usr/share in any of the files I checked. (All files in the main folder, and in the /scripts folder).

So, again, I'm asking why this is trying to point back to /usr/share/ when I COPIED the files, no linking, no symbolic. Nothing. Again, there is nothing in httpd.conf pointing phpmyadmin to /usr/share/
