Announcement
------------

The phpMyAdmin Project is proud to announce the immediate availability
of phpMyAdmin 2.11.0, which will probably be the last series supporting
PHP 4.

This version supports creating VIEWs from query results
and can manage triggers, procedures and functions. It also supports
MySQL 5.0.37 query profiling and has an improved interface for servers
hosting thousands of databases and tables.

phpMyAdmin is a web administration tool for MySQL databases, intended to
handle a whole database server as well as a single database. Over the
years, it has become the most popular Web GUI for MySQL.

How to update:
Code:
# vi /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/phpMyAdmin.sh
change the line containing:
Code:
VER=
to:
Code:
VER=2.11.0-all-languages
(how to use VI: type i to insert text, and make your changes, then press ESC and type :wq to save and exit)

Then run the update script:
Code:
# /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/phpMyAdmin.sh
 
Or just run this with custombuild:
Code:
./build update
./build phpmyadmin
 
Do this in ssh (if you use CustomBuild):
Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild

And execute that commands :)
 
./build phpmyadmin isn't even an option for me?

and yes I updated the build script. I just used Wael's script which worked fine.
 
jw00dy, do you use the latest version of custombuild (1.1.2)? If yes, phpMyAdmin should be there.
 
Just write "./build" and you'll see "Version" in the header.

How do I see what version of phpMyAdmin I have in DirectAdmin? I can see the following through system information:

Apache 1.3.37 Running
DirectAdmin 1.30.2 Running
Exim 4.67 Running
MySQL 5.0.41 Running
 
Ah I see I am running phpMyAdmin - v2.10.3.
Should I upgrade to 2.11.0? If so, why? I am running, as you can see, PHP 5.0.41 :)
