When I try to goto Home > User > MySQL Setup > phpMyAdmin in DirectAdmin, it redirects to the main control panel interface of DA, instead of showing the phpMyAdmin screen.

I'm not sure how long it has been like this, the last time I accessed phpMyAdmin was about 2 or 3 months ago I think.

In an effort to resolve the problem, I have now updated to version 1.34.0 but it has not helped. I don't know where to start looking to resolve this. Please can someone help me.

Thanks.

Update

I just found an old bookmark for phpMyAdmin access from a particular domain on the server. It is http://mydomain.com/phpmyadmin/ and this bookmark works.

I noticed that the link from the DA Control Panel points to http://s1.mydomain.com/phpMyAdmin/

If I remove the s1 from the URL, the link works. I called this server s1.mydomain incase I ever have additional servers, so that I won't need to register a new domain for each one, I'll just add subdomains.

I'm wondering how I can fix the link, so that it will work for my users please?

Thanks

When I attempt a visit to s1.mydomain.com/phpMyAdmin/ I get a 404 Page Not Found error.

Is that your problem? Or did you waste our time and yours in fixing this problem by giving us someone else's domain name?

Please look here for more information.

Did I say I'm getting a 404 error? No.

The first sentence of the unofficial page whose author doesn't even find worthy of it's own domain which you linked to says that, "You've come to this page because you've obscured information about your domains and IP addresses when asking for help on how to administer your DNS servers." Did I ask for help on how to administer my DNS servers? No.

You speak as though I should of read this before I posted! As it happens, try as I might, there are still a few web pages online which I've not yet visited. I apologize, I should try to get around them all faster.


...did you waste our time and yours in fixing this problem by giving us someone else's domain name?

Hahaha! I'm having difficulty believing that a techi on a forum like this might genuinely confuse an obviously disguised URL like http://s1.mydomain.com with a genuine one as you appear to be claiming you have. If that's the case then, I bet you also look for a key labeled "Any Key" when prompted to "Press any key"!

Forgive me if I'm being overly sensitive here, but I can't help detecting unfriendliness and unhelpfulness in your tone. You know, nobody forced you to spend 10 seconds reading my post (and five minutes replying to it). If you did not want to help you could have just gone on to the next one - You are not the only person in this forum Jeff. It's not your job to reply to every post.

I see posts every day on various forums, that I find in some way to be wrong, bad, offensive, pointless or time-wasters. The solution - The back button. Yes, it would waste my time and the posters, if I chose to reply to each one.

To be honest, I'm only replying to your post here (which I consider to be time-wasting), because it is in a thread which I started, but let it be known, that your uncalled for and provocative post, has wasted more of both of our time, than mine ever did!

I post to that particular link because it's become the most popular link I've found on the 'net which explains what happens when you ask for help but don't give enough information to get it.

I'm genuinely sorry if my sarcasm wasn't understood.

I'll refrain from posting again on this thread, and perhaps someone else will decide to try to help you without any of the information necessary for testing.

Solved

It looks like I have figured this out now.

It seems that the phpMyAdmin link within DA is written like this: If the address of the page that it appears on is https://s1.mydomain.com:2222/CMD_DB?DOMAIN=another-hosted-domain.com then the URL of the link to phpMyAdmin will be https://s1.mydomain.com/phpMyAdmin which won't work because of the subdomain 's1'.

If the subdomain is removed from the link, it will then work. Since none of my customers hosting accounts are registered to subdomains, the phpMyAdmin URLs will all be written correctly for them, which is great - I'm the only one it's not working for due to the subdomain and I can live with that.

Thanks,

Peter

No but you probably should have because that is likely your problem. But hey what do we know?
