Question

I googled on how to install phpmyadmin on ec2, and i got this syntax:

sudo yum install phpmyadmin

But i keep getting this:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
amzn-main                                                | 2.1 kB     00:00

Error: Nothing to do

I tried to go my website, its not installed. Please help

EDIT:

My Server OS: Amazon Linux AMI 64 bit

I tried: yum install phpmyadmin --enablerepo=development, but still I got this error:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, security

Error getting repository data for development, repository not found

Answer 1

The official Amazon Linux AMI doesn't contain the repositories that are used for phpmyadmin at all, so you'll need to install it manually. Check out this post by Caleb Ogden about doing just that.

Answer 2

First add the repository, then install:
wget http://packages.sw.be/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
sudo yum install phpmyadmin

working fine on a standart 32bits amazon instance

Answer 3

The above solution works fine. The one problem often occurs is the default phpmyadmin.conf has

Order Deny,Allow

Deny from all

Allow from 127.0.0.1

To access remotly, it should be changed to

Order Deny,Allow

Allow from all

ERROR: The configuration file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret) You need to add a blowfish password to the phpMyAdmin's config file. Edit /etc/webapps/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php and insert a random blowfish "password" in the line

$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = ; /* YOU MUST FILL IN THIS FOR COOKIE AUTH! */
