[RELEASE] WP-phpMyAdmin plugin

I am running in a blog in a subdirectory. I am using WordPress 2.0.3 as well. My blog is located at:

Please email me at trent dot adams at gmail dot com about this matter further

Trent,
I just noticed that you only moved the wp-phpmyadmin.php file to your plugins folder. You need to unzip and move the whole wp-phpmyadmin directory (including all the files in it) to your plugin folder and reactivate.

Ahh….simple fix and it works great. Thanks!

hello,

running the newest version of wp and of wp-phpmyadmin. when trying to access the wp-phpmyadmin I get an 403 error. after looking into my plugins directory I found an .htaccess file denying every access.

where could that come from? is that standard in wp 2.0.3 ?
How to rewrite the .htaccess to only allow access to url/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-phpmyadmin ?

I found I had already had problems with this .htaccess file, last time I had problems I deleted it and all problems were gone, but now it is back. Thats why I suspected it was part of wordpress…

any thoughts on this?

I’m not aware of wordpress doing that. It’s never done it to me. Do you have a control panel for your webhost that has some ‘security’ features?

Perhaps you could post your .htaccess file here. Our collective eyes can look at it and advise.

Man,

He sent this to me separately, but the contents are as follows:

order allow,deny
deny from all

I’ve not seen WP do something like this. If it is in the plugins folder you should be denied access to all plugins that are happening via http.

I do have 2 files with these rules that I included in the plugin. They appear in ‘libraries’ and ‘scripts’. But should not ever appear in the main plugins directory.

Ovidiu, if you are getting this it is from somewhere else, and you can be sure that that is causing the 403 errors that you have. As for WP-phpMyAdmin, are you sure that you uploaded the entire directory, as it comes when you unzip it, to your plugins directory? However unless the .htaccess thing is fixed, the plugin won’t work. Try deleting the htaccess file for now and test the plugin so that you can close this thread and start a new one to address the htaccess problem specifically.

Great plugin, slipstream. Unzipped and working like a champ on 2.0.3. Maybe I could even teach some clients how to use it.:>)
Thanks for your work!

Samboll,

Thanks for that!!! Care to leave the feedback on my site instead… lol… ??

Actually, I’ll go leave some feedback on your site as well. I consider this plugin fairly useful, although I worry slightly about the potential for someone to cockup their database.

It’s dumb question time. Is it only the admin user that can access it? (I would expect so) I’m wondering if access to it could be set in the roles manager plugin.

“I’m wondering if access to it could be set in the roles manager plugin.”

It can be added to the “Custom Capabilities”, so I’m assuming “yes”. Testing further.

It actually will only work for someone with access level of 8 and above.

I have just installed the latest vesion of WordPress. Then I downloaded and installed this plugin. It activated fine, but then when I try to use it under the “manage” tab, I get this “Not Found” error: https://www.beretta-online.com/error.jpg

I appear to be doing everything right. Site = https://www.beretta-online.com, blog address = https://www.beretta-online.com/wordpress

Any suggestions?
