phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the Web. Currently it can create and drop databases, create/drop/alter tables, delete/edit/add fields, execute any SQL statement, manage keys on fields.

Installing on your LinuxMCE system

  • Open a shell on the core.
  • You will need to run as root to do this, so type:
 sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
  • Once it is completed installing, you will need to create a symlink to access it. Do this by typing:
 sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin

Using phpMyAdmin

After creating the symlink, you can now access phpmyadmin similar to the pluto web-admin, by pointing your browser to:

http://dcerouter/phpmyadmin/

If the name dcerouter is unknown, try replacing it with your core's IP address (usually 192.168.80.1 if you're on the internal network).
