Then we extract it with
the following shell command or by using any graphical file extractor our window
manager offers:
tar -xzvf phpMyAdmin-2.11.0-all-languages-utf-8-only.tar.gz
We ensure that the permissions and ownership of the directory and files are
appropriate for our web server; the web server user or group must be able to
read them.
Installation on Local Windows Servers
(Apache, IIS)
The procedure here is similar to that described in the Installation on a Remote Server
Using a Windows Client section, except that the target directory will be under our
DocumentRoot (for Apache) or our wwwroot (for IIS). Of course, we do not need to
transfer anything after the modifications of config.inc.php, as the directory is
already on the web space.
Chapter 2
[ 21 ]
Apache is usually run as a service, so we have to ensure that the user under which
the service is running has normal read privileges to access our newly created
directory. The same principle applies to IIS, which uses the IUSR_machinename
user. This user must have read access to the directory. You can adjust permissions in
the Security/permissions tab of the directory's properties.
First Connection Configuration
Here we learn how to prepare and use the configuration file which contains
the parameters to connect to MySQL, and which can be customized as per our
requirements.
