Question

Unable to Properly Configure phpmyadmin on FMS

I carefully read forums for phpmyadmin before posting here and none really had the answer. I am able to install phpmyadmin on stand alone versions of Apache, but unable to do so on the FMS version. I previously read this post (http://forums.adobe.com/message/3107885#3107885) and it doesn't seem to answer the question although it looks like part of the question may have been answered offline.

The problem is that phpmyadmin installs and I know that PHP is running fine because I can run a couple of test scripts with no problem. However, when I go to login to phpmyadmin, I get the dialog box asking me "do you want to open or save this file" and the script itself never executes. I checked the the server log, and here's what's going on:

Bad network data; terminating connection : bad chunck version 112 on input stream 01903308

Bad network data; terminating connection : (Adaptor: +defaultRoot_, VHost: Unknown, IP: , Protocol: Tunnel) : phpMyAdmin

Based on the post noted above, I'm assuming this may have something to do with either POST variables or maybe proxying unknown requests, however the forum post didn't appear to resolve the problem. I also posted to that thread, but I wasn't sure it was still being monitored. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I apologize if this has already been answered, if so please direct me to the answer.

    Hi,

    Just as a check can you try executing PHP script by sending your request directly to Apache server without using FMS to proxy it, i.e, make a request directly to port where Apache is listening.. something like http://<yourserver:8134/phpmyadmin.php  (assuming Apache is listening on port 8134). In case that does not works it means PHP has not been configured properly for Apache as some modules needed for running PHP may not be loaded.

    Thanks,

    Abhishek

    AbhishekSinha Thank you so much for your reply. I did try to run it through port 8134 and it still produced the error (still got the dialogue box asking me if I wanted to open or save the index.php file). You say that this means that PHP is not configured properly. Any idea where I can get information about how to configure the FMS version of Apache properly for PHP? I haven't been able to find anything that shows how to do that, so I've been using the PHP setup instructions for standalone versions of Apache. Any insight you can provide would be great and thank you again for your reply.

    Hi,

    If possible can you send me your httpd.conf file so that I can look into it and tell you if something is missing. You can email me at abh@adobe.com. I suspect you have not uncommented some AddModule or LoadModule line in that and as a result PHP modules are not getting loaded, but can't tell surely without looking.

    Thanks,

    Abhishek
