My host has installed DirectAdmin on an unmanaged VPS.

I have entered phpMyAdmin via DirectAdmin/user level/phpMyAdmin.

Firstly, it shows:

A newer version of phpMyAdmin is available and you should consider upgrading. The newest version is 3.4.10.1, released on 2012-02-18.

How best to update to the latest version?

Secondly it shows:

The phpMyAdmin configuration storage is not completely configured, some extended features have been deactivated. To find out why click here.

When I follow the 'click here' it shows:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['relation'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
General relation features: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_info'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
Display Features: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_coords'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pdf_pages'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
Creation of PDFs: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column_info'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
Displaying Column Comments: Disabled
Browser transformation: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['bookmarktable'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
Bookmarked SQL query: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['history'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
SQL history: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer_coords'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
Designer: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
Tracking: Disabled

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['userconfig'] ... not OK [ Documentation ]
User preferences: Disabled


Quick steps to setup advanced features:

Create the needed tables with the script/create_tables.sql. Documentation
Create a pma user and give access to these tables. Documentation
Enable advanced features in configuration file (config.inc.php), for example by starting from config.sample.inc.php. Documentation
Re-login to phpMyAdmin to load the updated configuration file.

Is this something I need to be worried about?

Thank you for any help with this,

Jono.
 
Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build clean
./build update_versions
 
I recently noticed the same thing in phpmyadmin. I've updated everything normally (3.4.10.1-all-languages).

Its not something to worry about, since its just a bunch of extra functions that are not working now. But it would be nice if this could be fixed.
 
Did the notice went away? I've even just deleted the whole phpmyadmin dir and ran build again. Still the same.

Hi Arieh,

No, the '...configuration storage is not completely configured...' message still remains, it is only the upgrade promt that is now missing.

Hope this helps.
 
ah yes that was the thing I was talking about, didn't saw you had to update as well. So anyone else got this configuration notice? Is it something for directadmin to fix?
