^{_{Note: On the page with download of "110DBManager" is statement about PHPMyAdmin being banned - that statement is outdated already for a long long long time, but admins don't care to correct such detail. You CAN use PHPMyAdmin on 110mb. Confirmation.}}



How to install PHPMyAdmin on 110mb.com hosting.


First you need to visit PHPMyAdmin download section and download ZIP archive with the latest 2.x version.
Important! 2.x version. Version 3.x does not work on 110mb because of PHP version installed.
You can choose english, all languages or all languages utf-8 only - it's up to you (names are self-explanatory).

When you already have the ZIP archive with PHPMyAdmin you need to uppload it to your 110mb account - either through FTP or with using File Manager - it's up to you.

Then access File Manager in 110mb Control Panel and click on the icon "uncompress" beside the uploaded zip archive - new folder with PHPMyAdmin should appear on your account. If nothing happen - rename the zip archive into something simple like "phpmyadmin.zip" (to not contain any special characters, brackets or empty spaces) and try again.

You can already delete the zip archive with PHPMyAdmin. But obviously keep new folder with all the files.

Last thing to do is to create configuration file called "config.inc.php".
Access the archive with PHPMyAdmin files on your own computer - inside of it find the file called "config.sample.inc.php" - create a copy of this file and rename it into "config.inc.php".

Open this file with Notepad (or other plain text editor) and find the line:

Code:

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

Between the quotes fill up something random, in example:

Code:

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'hg83-something-random-63sj'; /* YOU MUST FILL IN THIS FOR COOKIE AUTH! */

and save the file.

Using either FTP or File Manager upload this edited "config.inc.php" to the folder with PHPMyAdmin on your 110mb account. And that's it, you're done.

You can now access PHPMyAdmin on your account by clicking on "index.php" inside of PHPMyAdmin folder on your account in File Manager or by typing URL youraccountname.110mb.com/phpmyadmin-foldername/
You can rename the folder for being it more easy to remember for you.
Login with database username and password created by you in MySQL section of 110mb Control Panel.

Note that on some of the 110mb servers at some times of the day PHPMyAdmin (as the "little heavy" script) may work slower than the other regular scripts.
