<!-- INTRODUCTION -->
<h2 id="intro">Introduction</h2>
<p> phpMyAdmin can manage a whole MySQL server (needs a super-user) as well as
a single database. To accomplish the latter you'll need a properly set up
MySQL user who can read/write only the desired database. It's up to you to
look up the appropriate part in the MySQL manual.
</p>
<h3>Currently phpMyAdmin can:</h3>
<ul><li>browse and drop databases, tables, views, fields and indexes</li>
<li>create, copy, drop, rename and alter databases, tables, fields and
indexes</li>
<li>maintenance server, databases and tables, with proposals on server
configuration</li>
<li>execute, edit and bookmark any
<abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr>-statement, even
batch-queries</li>
<li>load text files into tables</li>
<li>create<a href="#footnote_1"><sup>1</sup></a> and read dumps of tables
</li>
<li>export<a href="#footnote_1"><sup>1</sup></a> data to various formats:

</ul>
<h4>A word about users:</h4>
<p> Many people have difficulty
understanding the concept of user management with regards to phpMyAdmin. When
a user logs in to phpMyAdmin, that username and password are passed directly
to MySQL. phpMyAdmin does no account management on its own (other than
allowing one to manipulate the MySQL user account information); all users
must be valid MySQL users.</p>
<p class="footnote" id="footnote_1">
<sup>1)</sup> phpMyAdmin can compress (Zip, GZip -RFC 1952- or Bzip2 formats)
dumps and <abbr title="comma separated values">CSV</abbr> exports if you use
PHP with Zlib support (<tt>--with-zlib</tt>) and/or Bzip2 support
(<tt>--with-bz2</tt>). Proper support may also need changes in
<tt>php.ini</tt>.</p>
<!-- INSTALLATION -->

<li><a href="#linked-tables">Linked-tables infrastructure</a></li>
<li><a href="#upgrading">Upgrading from an older version</a></li>
<li><a href="#authentication_modes">Using authentication modes</a></li>
</ol>
<p class="important">
phpMyAdmin does not apply any special security methods to the MySQL database
server. It is still the system administrator's job to grant permissions on
the MySQL databases properly. phpMyAdmin's "Privileges" page can
be used for this.
</p>
<p class="important">
Warning for <acronym title="Apple Macintosh">Mac</acronym> users:<br />
if you are on a <acronym title="Apple Macintosh">Mac</acronym>
<abbr title="operating system">OS</abbr> version before
<abbr title="operating system">OS</abbr> X, StuffIt unstuffs with
<acronym title="Apple Macintosh">Mac</acronym> formats.<br />
So you'll have to resave as in BBEdit to Unix style ALL phpMyAdmin scripts
before uploading them to your server, as PHP seems not to like
<acronym title="Apple Macintosh">Mac</acronym>-style end of lines character
("<tt>\r</tt>").</p>
<h3 id="quick_install">Quick Install</h3>
<ol><li>Choose an appropriate distribution kit from the phpmyadmin.net
Downloads page. Some kits contain only the English messages,
others contain all languages in UTF-8 format (this should be fine
in most situations), others contain all
languages and all character sets. We'll assume you chose a kit whose
name looks like <tt>phpMyAdmin-x.x.x-all-languages.tar.gz</tt>.
</li>
<li>Untar or unzip the distribution (be sure to unzip the subdirectories):
<tt>tar -xzvf phpMyAdmin_x.x.x-all-languages.tar.gz</tt> in your webserver's
document root. If you don't have direct access to your document root,
put the files in a directory on your local machine, and, after step 4,
transfer the directory on your web server using, for example, ftp.</li>
<li>Ensure that all the scripts have the appropriate owner (if PHP is
running in safe mode, having some scripts with an owner different
from the owner of other scripts will be a
problem). See <a href="#faq4_2">
<abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr> 4.2</a> and
<a href="#faq1_26"><abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr>
1.26</a> for suggestions.</li>
<li>Now you must configure your installation. There are two methods that
can be used. Traditionally, users have hand-edited a copy of
<tt>config.inc.php</tt>, but now a wizard-style setup script is
provided for those who prefer a graphical installation. Creating a
<tt>config.inc.php</tt> is still a quick way to get started and needed for some advanced features.
<ul><li>To manually create the file, simply use your text editor to
create the file <tt>config.inc.php</tt> (you can copy
<tt>config.sample.inc.php</tt> to get minimal configuration
file) in the main (top-level) phpMyAdmin directory (the one
that contains <tt>index.php</tt>). phpMyAdmin first loads
<tt>libraries/config.default.php</tt> and then overrides those
values with anything found in <tt>config.inc.php</tt>. If the
default value is okay for a particular setting, there is no
need to include it in <tt>config.inc.php</tt>. You'll need a
few directives to get going, a simple configuration may look
like this:
<pre>
<?php
$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'ba17c1ec07d65003'; // use here a value of your choice
$i=0;
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
?>
</pre>
Or, if you prefer to not be prompted every time you log in:
<pre>
<?php
$i=0;
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'cbb74bc'; // use here your password
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';
?>
</pre>
For a full explanation of possible configuration values, see the
<a href="#config">Configuration Section</a> of this document.</li>
<li id="setup_script">Instead of manually editing
<tt>config.inc.php</tt>, you can use the
<a href="setup/">Setup Script</a>. First you must
manually create a folder <tt>config</tt> in the phpMyAdmin
directory. This is a security measure. On a Linux/Unix system you
can use the following commands:
<pre>
cd phpMyAdmin
mkdir config # create directory for saving
chmod o+rw config # give it world writable permissions
</pre>
And to edit an existing configuration, copy it over first:
<pre>
cp config.inc.php config/ # copy current configuration for editing
chmod o+w config/config.inc.php # give it world writable permissions
</pre>
On other platforms, simply create the folder and ensure that your
web server has read and write access to it. <a href="#faq1_26">FAQ
1.26</a> can help with this.<br /><br />
Next, open <tt><a href="setup/">setup/</a>
</tt>in your browser. Note that <strong>changes are not saved to
disk until explicitly choose <tt>Save</tt></strong> from the
<i>Configuration</i> area of the screen. Normally the script saves
the new config.inc.php to the <tt>config/</tt> directory, but if
the webserver does not have the proper permissions you may see the
error "Cannot load or save configuration." Ensure that the <tt>
config/</tt> directory exists and has the proper permissions -
or use the <tt>Download</tt> link to save the config file locally
and upload (via FTP or some similar means) to the proper location.<br /><br />
Once the file has been saved, it must be moved out of the <tt>
config/</tt> directory and the permissions must be reset, again
as a security measure:
<pre>
mv config/config.inc.php . # move file to current directory
chmod o-rw config.inc.php # remove world read and write permissions
rm -rf config # remove not needed directory
</pre>
Now the file is ready to be used. You can choose to review or edit
the file with your favorite editor, if you prefer to set some
advanced options which the setup script does not provide.</li></ul></li>
<li>If you are using the
<tt>auth_type</tt> "config", it is suggested that you
protect the phpMyAdmin installation directory because using
config does not require a user to
enter a password to access the phpMyAdmin installation. Use of an alternate
authentication method is recommended, for example with
HTTP–AUTH in a <a href="#glossary"><i>.htaccess</i></a> file or switch to using
<tt>auth_type</tt> cookie or http. See the
<a href="#faqmultiuser"> multi–user sub–section</a> of this
<abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr> for additional
information, especially <a href="#faq4_4">
<abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr> 4.4</a>.</li>
<li>Open the <a href="index.php">main phpMyAdmin directory</a>
in your browser. phpMyAdmin should now display a welcome screen
and your databases, or a login dialog if using
<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or cookie
authentication mode.</li>
<li>You should deny access to the <tt>./libraries</tt> and
<tt>./setup/lib</tt> subfolders in your webserver configuration. For
Apache you can use supplied .htaccess file in that folder, for other
webservers, you should configure this yourself. Such configuration
prevents from possible path exposure and cross side scripting
vulnerabilities that might happen to be found in that code.</li>
<li>
It is generally good idea to protect public phpMyAdmin installation
against access by robots as they usually can not do anything good
there. You can do this using <code>robots.txt</code> file in root of
your webserver or limit access by web server configuration. You can
find example <code>.htaccess</code> file which can help you achieve
this in <code>contrib</code> directory in phpMyAdmin.
</li>
</ol>
<h3 id="linked-tables">Linked-tables infrastructure</h3>
<p> For a whole set of new features (bookmarks, comments,
<abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr>-history,
<abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr>-generation, field contents
transformation, etc.) you need to create a set of special tables. Those
tables can be located in your own database, or in a central database for a
multi-user installation (this database would then be accessed by the
controluser, so no other user should have rights to it).</p>
<p> Please look at your <tt>./scripts/</tt> directory, where you should find a
file called <i>create_tables.sql</i>. (If you are using a Windows server, pay
special attention to <a href="#faq1_23">
<abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr> 1.23</a>).</p>
<p> If you already had this infrastructure and upgraded to MySQL 4.1.2
or newer, please use <i>./scripts/upgrade_tables_mysql_4_1_2+.sql</i>.</p>
<p> You can use your phpMyAdmin to create the tables for you. Please be aware
that you may need special (administrator) privileges to create the database
and tables, and that the script may need some tuning, depending on the
database name.</p>
<p> After having imported the <i>./scripts/create_tables.sql</i> file, you
should specify the table names in your <i>./config.inc.php</i> file. The
directives used for that can be found in the <a href="#config">Configuration
section</a>. You will also need to have a controluser with the proper rights
to those tables (see section <a href="#authentication_modes">Using
authentication modes</a> below).</p>
<h3 id="upgrading">Upgrading from an older version</h3>
<p> Simply copy <i>./config.inc.php</i> from your previous installation into the newly
unpacked one. Configuration files from old versions may
require some tweaking as some options have been changed or removed; in
particular, the definition of <tt>$cfg['AttributeTypes']</tt> has changed
so you better remove it from your file and just use the default one.
For compatibility with PHP 6, remove a <tt>set_magic_quotes_runtime(0);</tt>
statement that you might find near the end of your configuration file.</p>
<p> You should <strong>not</strong> copy <tt>libraries/config.default.php</tt>
over <tt>config.inc.php</tt> because the default configuration file
is version-specific.</p>
<p> If you have upgraded your MySQL server from a version previous to 4.1.2 to
version 4.1.2 or newer and if you use the pmadb/linked table infrastructure,
you should run the SQL script found in
<tt>scripts/upgrade_tables_mysql_4_1_2+.sql</tt>.</p>
<h3 id="authentication_modes">Using authentication modes</h3>
<ul><li><abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> and cookie
authentication modes are recommended in a <b>multi-user environment</b>
where you want to give users access to their own database and don't want
them to play around with others.<br />
Nevertheless be aware that MS Internet Explorer seems to be really buggy
about cookies, at least till version 6, and PHP 4.1.1 is also a bit buggy
in this area!<br />
Even in a <b>single-user environment</b>, you might prefer to use
<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or cookie mode so
that your user/password pair are not in clear in the configuration file.
</li>
<li><abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> and cookie
authentication modes are more secure: the MySQL login information does
not need to be set in the phpMyAdmin configuration file (except possibly
for the <a href="#controluser">controluser</a>).<br />
However, keep in mind that the password travels in plain text, unless
you are using the HTTPS protocol.<br />
In cookie mode, the password is stored, encrypted with the blowfish
algorithm, in a temporary cookie.</li>
<li>Note: starting with phpMyAdmin 2.6.1, this section is only applicable if
your MySQL server is running with <tt>--skip-show-database</tt>.<br /><br />
For '<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr>' and 'cookie'
modes, phpMyAdmin needs a controluser that has <b>only</b> the
<tt>SELECT</tt> privilege on the <i>`mysql`.`user` (all columns except
`Password`)</i>, <i>`mysql`.`db` (all columns)</i>, <i>`mysql`.`host`
(all columns)</i> and <i>`mysql`.`tables_priv` (all columns except
`Grantor` and `Timestamp`)</i> tables.<br /> You must specify the details
for the <a href="#controluser">controluser</a> in the <tt>config.inc.php</tt>
file under the
<tt><a href="#cfg_Servers_controluser" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser']</a></tt> and
<tt><a href="#cfg_Servers_controlpass" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass']</a></tt> settings.<br />
The following example assumes you want to use <tt>pma</tt> as the
controluser and <tt>pmapass</tt> as the controlpass, but <b>this is
only an example: use something else in your file!</b> Input these
statements from the phpMyAdmin SQL Query window or mysql command–line
client.<br />
Of course you have to replace <tt>localhost</tt> with the webserver's host
if it's not the same as the MySQL server's one.
<pre>
GRANT USAGE ON mysql.* TO 'pma'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'pmapass';
GRANT SELECT (
Host, User, Select_priv, Insert_priv, Update_priv, Delete_priv,
Create_priv, Drop_priv, Reload_priv, Shutdown_priv, Process_priv,
File_priv, Grant_priv, References_priv, Index_priv, Alter_priv,
Show_db_priv, Super_priv, Create_tmp_table_priv, Lock_tables_priv,
Execute_priv, Repl_slave_priv, Repl_client_priv
) ON mysql.user TO 'pma'@'localhost';
GRANT SELECT ON mysql.db TO 'pma'@'localhost';
GRANT SELECT ON mysql.host TO 'pma'@'localhost';
GRANT SELECT (Host, Db, User, Table_name, Table_priv, Column_priv)
ON mysql.tables_priv TO 'pma'@'localhost';</pre>
If you want to use the many new relation and bookmark features:
<pre>
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON <pma_db>.* TO 'pma'@'localhost';
</pre>
(this of course requires that your <a href="#linked-tables">linked-tables
infrastructure</a> be set up).<br /></li>
<li>Then each of the <i>true</i> users should be granted a set of privileges
on a set of particular databases. Normally you shouldn't give global
privileges to an ordinary user, unless you understand the impact of those
privileges (for example, you are creating a superuser).<br />
For example, to grant the user <i>real_user</i> with all privileges on
the database <i>user_base</i>:<br />
<pre>
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON user_base.* TO 'real_user'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'real_password';
</pre>
What the user may now do is controlled entirely by the MySQL user
management system.<br />
With <abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or cookie
authentication mode, you don't need to fill the user/password fields
inside the <a href="#cfg_Servers" class="configrule">$cfg['Servers']</a>
array.</li>
</ul>
<h4>'<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr>' authentication mode</h4>
<ul><li>Uses <abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> Basic authentication
method and allows you to log in as any valid MySQL user.</li>
<li>Is supported with most PHP configurations. For
<abbr title="Internet Information Services">IIS</abbr>
(<abbr title="Internet Server Application Programming Interface">ISAPI</abbr>)
support using <abbr title="Common Gateway Interface">CGI</abbr> PHP see
<a href="#faq1_32"><abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr>
1.32</a>, for using with Apache
<abbr title="Common Gateway Interface">CGI</abbr> see
<a href="#faq1_35"><abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr>
1.35</a>.</li>
<li>See also <a href="#faq4_4">
<abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr> 4.4</a> about not
using the <i>.htaccess</i> mechanism along with
'<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr>' authentication
mode.</li>
</ul>
<h4>'cookie' authentication mode</h4>
<ul><li>You can use this method as a replacement for the
<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> authentication
(for example, if you're running
<abbr title="Internet Information Services">IIS</abbr>).</li>
<li>Obviously, the user must enable cookies in the browser, but this is
now a requirement for all authentication modes.</li>
<li>With this mode, the user can truly log out of phpMyAdmin and log in back
with the same username.</li>
<li>If you want to log in to arbitrary server see
<a href="#AllowArbitraryServer" class="configrule">
$cfg['AllowArbitraryServer']</a> directive.</li>
<li>As mentioned in the <a href="#require">requirements</a> section, having
the <tt>mcrypt</tt> extension will speed up access considerably, but is
not required.</li>
</ul>
<h4>'signon' authentication mode</h4>
<ul><li>This mode is a convenient way of using credentials from another
application to authenticate to phpMyAdmin.</li>
<li>The other application has to store login information into
session data.</li>
<li>More details in the <a href="#cfg_Servers_auth_type">auth_type</a>
section.</li>
</ul>
<h4>'config' authentication mode</h4>
<ul><li>This mode is the less secure one because it requires you to fill the
<a href="#servers_user" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user']</a> and
<a href="#servers_user" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']</a> fields (and as a result, anyone who
can read your config.inc.php can discover your username and password).
<br />
But you don't need to setup a "controluser" here: using the
<a href="#servers_only_db" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db']</a> might be enough.</li>
<li>In the <a href="#faqmultiuser">
<abbr title="Internet service provider">ISP</abbr>
<abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr></a> section, there
is an entry explaining how to protect your configuration file.</li>
<li>For additional security in this mode, you may wish to consider the Host
authentication
<a href="#servers_allowdeny_order" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order']</a> and
<a href="#servers_allowdeny_rules" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules']</a> configuration
directives.</li>
<li>Unlike cookie and http, does not require a user to log in when first
loading the phpMyAdmin site. This is by design but could allow any
user to access your installation. Use of some restriction method is
suggested, perhaps a <a href="#glossary">.htaccess</a> file with the
HTTP-AUTH directive or disallowing incoming HTTP requests at
one’s router or firewall will suffice (both of which
are beyond the scope of this manual but easily searchable with Google).</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="swekey">Swekey authentication</h4>
<p>
The Swekey is a low cost authentication USB key that can be used in
web applications.<br /><br />
When Swekey authentication is activated, phpMyAdmin requires the
users's Swekey to be plugged before entering the login page (currently
supported for cookie authentication mode only). Swekey Authentication is
disabled by default.<br /><br />
To enable it, add the following line to <tt>config.inc.php</tt>:
</p>
<pre>
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_swekey_config'] = '/etc/swekey.conf';
</pre>
<p>
You then have to create the <tt>swekey.conf</tt> file that will associate
each user with their Swekey Id. It is important to place this file outside
of your web server's document root (in the example, it is located in <tt>/etc</tt>). A self documented sample file is provided
in the <tt>contrib</tt> directory. Feel free to use it with your own
users' information.<br /><br />
If you want to purchase a Swekey please visit
<a href="http://phpmyadmin.net/auth_key">http://phpmyadmin.net/auth_key</a>

E.g. <tt>http://www.your_web.net/path_to_your_phpMyAdmin_directory/</tt>.
Note also that the <abbr title="Uniform Resource Locator">URL</abbr> on
some web servers are case–sensitive.
Don’t forget the trailing slash at the end.<br /><br />
Starting with version 2.3.0, it is advisable to try leaving this
blank. In most cases phpMyAdmin automatically detects the proper

href="https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1340187&group_id=23067&atid=377409">more info</a>).
A good test is to browse a table, edit a row and save it. There should
be an error message if phpMyAdmin is having trouble auto–detecting
the correct value. If you get an error that this must be set or if
the autodetect code fails to detect your path, please post a bug
report on our bug tracker so we can improve the code.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_PmaNoRelation_DisableWarning">$cfg['PmaNoRelation_DisableWarning'] boolean</dt>
<dd>Starting with version 2.3.0 phpMyAdmin offers a lot of features to work

<br />
If you tried to set this up and it does not work for you, have a look on

number of characters for this parameter seems to be 46.<br /><br />
Since version 3.1.0 phpMyAdmin can generate this on the fly, but it
makes a bit weaker security as this generated secret is stored in
session and furthermore it makes impossible to recall user name from
cookie.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_Servers">$cfg['Servers'] array</dt>
<dd>Since version 1.4.2, phpMyAdmin supports the administration of multiple

been added which contains the login information for the different servers.
The first
<a href="#cfg_Servers_host" class="configrule">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']</a>
contains the hostname of the first server, the second
<a href="#cfg_Servers_host" class="configrule">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']</a>

<dt id="cfg_Servers_port">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['port'] string</dt>
<dd>The port-number of your $i-th MySQL-server. Default is 3306 (leave

<tt>'socket'</tt> and <tt>'tcp'</tt>. It defaults to 'tcp' as that
is nearly guaranteed to be available on all MySQL servers, while
sockets are not supported on some platforms.<br /><br />
To use the socket mode, your MySQL server must be on the same machine

and, for a MySQL server previous to 4.1.2 or running with
<tt>--skip-show-database</tt>, to enable a multi-user installation
(<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or cookie
authentication mode).<br /><br />
When using <abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or
cookie authentication modes (or 'config'
authentication mode since phpMyAdmin 2.2.1), you need to supply the
details of a MySQL account that has <tt>SELECT</tt> privilege on the
<i>mysql.user (all columns except "Password")</i>,
<i>mysql.db (all columns)</i> and <i>mysql.tables_priv (all columns
except "Grantor" and "Timestamp") </i>tables.
This account is used to check what databases the user will see at
login.<br />
Please see the <a href="#setup">install section</a> on

<dd>Whether config or cookie or
<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or signon authentication
should be used for this server.
<ul><li>'config' authentication (<tt>$auth_type = 'config'</tt>)
is the plain old way: username and password are stored in
<i>config.inc.php</i>.</li>
<li>'cookie' authentication mode
(<tt>$auth_type = 'cookie'</tt>) as introduced in
2.2.3 allows you to log in as any valid MySQL user with the
help of cookies. Username and password are stored in
cookies during the session and password is deleted when it
ends. This can also allow you to log in in arbitrary server if
<tt><a href="#AllowArbitraryServer" class="configrule">$cfg['AllowArbitraryServer']</a></tt> enabled.
</li>
<li>'<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr>' authentication (was called 'advanced' in previous versions and can be written also as 'http')
(<tt>$auth_type = '<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr>'</tt>) as introduced in 1.3.0
allows you to log in as any valid MySQL user via HTTP-Auth.</li>
<li>'signon' authentication mode
(<tt>$auth_type = 'signon'</tt>)
as introduced in 2.10.0 allows you to log in from prepared PHP
session data. This is useful for implementing single signon
from another application. Sample way how to seed session is in
signon example: <code>scripts/signon.php</code>. You need to
configure <a href="#cfg_Servers_SignonSession"
class="configrule">session name</a> and <a
href="#cfg_Servers_SignonURL" class="configrule">signon
URL</a> to use this authentication method.</li>

</dt>
<dd>
Allow attempt to log in without password when a login with password
fails. This can be used together with http authentication, when
authentication is done some other way and phpMyAdmin gets user name
from auth and uses empty password for connecting to MySQL. Password
login is still tried first, but as fallback, no password method is
tried.</dd>
<dt id="servers_only_db">
<span id="cfg_Servers_only_db">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db']</span> string or array
</dt>
<dd>
If set to a (an array of) database name(s), only this (these) database(s)
will be shown to the user. Since phpMyAdmin 2.2.1, this/these
database(s) name(s) may contain MySQL wildcards characters
("_" and "%"): if you want to use literal instances
of these characters, escape them (I.E. use <tt>'my\_db'</tt> and not
<tt>'my_db'</tt>).<br />
This setting is an efficient way to lower the server load since the
latter does not need to send MySQL requests to build the available
database list. But <span class="important">it does not replace the
privileges rules of the MySQL database server</span>. If set, it just
means only these databases will be displayed but
<span class="important">not that all other databases can't be used.</span>
<br /><br />
An example of using more that one database:
<tt>$cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db'] = array('db1', 'db2');</tt>
<br /><br />
As of phpMyAdmin 2.5.5 the order inside the array is used for sorting the
databases in the left frame, so that you can individually arrange your databases.<br />
If you want to have certain databases at the top, but don't care about the others, you do not
need to specify all other databases. Use:
<tt>$cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db'] = array('db3', 'db4', '*');</tt>
instead to tell phpMyAdmin that it should display db3 and db4 on top, and the rest in alphabetic
order.</dd>
<dt><span id="cfg_Servers_hide_db">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db']</span> string
</dt>
<dd>Regular expression for hiding some databases. This only hides them
from listing, but a user is still able to access them (using, for example,
the SQL query area). To limit access, use the MySQL privilege system.
<br /><br />
For example, to hide all databases starting with the letter "a", use<br />
<pre>$cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db'] = '^a';</pre>
and to hide both "db1" and "db2" use <br />
<pre>$cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db'] = '(db1|db2)';</pre>

<dd>Only useful when using phpMyAdmin with multiple server entries. If set,
this string will be displayed instead of the hostname in the pull-down

certain databases on your system, for example. For HTTP auth, all
non-US-ASCII characters will be stripped.</dd>

that point to the foreign table;</li>
<li>display in an optional tool-tip the "display field"
when browsing the master table, if you move the mouse to a column

<br /><br />
Starting with release 2.5.0, comments are consequently used on the table
property pages and table browse view, showing up as tool-tips above the
column name (properties page) or embedded within the header of table in
browse view. They can also be shown in a table dump. Please see the
relevant configuration directives later on.<br /><br />
Also new in release 2.5.0 is a MIME-transformation system which is also
based on the following table structure. See <a href="#transformations">
Transformations</a> for further information. To use the
MIME-transformation system, your column_info table has to have the three

If your rule order is set to 'explicit', the authentication is
performed in a similar fashion to rule order 'deny,allow', with the
added restriction that your host/username combination <b>must</b> be

<abbr title="Internet service provider">ISP</abbr>'s with many
customers.<br />
Please note that this limitation of SQL queries is not as strict as
when using MySQL privileges. This is due to nature of SQL queries
which might be quite complicated. So this choice should be viewed as
help to avoid accidental dropping rather than strict privilege
limitation.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_Confirm">$cfg['Confirm'] boolean</dt>
<dd>Whether a warning ("Are your really sure...") should be
displayed when you're about to lose data.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LoginCookieRecall">$cfg['LoginCookieRecall'] boolean</dt>
<dd>Define whether the previous login should be recalled or not in cookie
authentication mode.<br /><br />

<tt><a href="#cfg_blowfish_secret">$cfg['blowfish_secret']</a></tt>.
</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LoginCookieValidity">$cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] integer [number of seconds]</dt>
<dd>Define how long is login cookie valid. Please note that php
configuration option <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.gc-maxlifetime">session.gc_maxlifetime</a>
might limit session validity and if session is lost, login cookie is
also invalidated. So it is good idea to set <code>session.gc_maxlifetime</code>
at least as high is $cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] is set.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LoginCookieStore">$cfg['LoginCookieStore'] integer [number of seconds]</dt>
<dd>Define how long is login cookie should be stored in browser. Default 0
means that it will be kept for existing session. This is recommended
for not trusted environments.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LoginCookieDeleteAll">$cfg['LoginCookieDeleteAll'] boolean</dt>
<dd>If enabled (default), logout deletes cookies for all servers,
otherwise only for current one. Setting this to false makes it easy to
forget to log out from other server, when you are using more of
them.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_UseDbSearch">$cfg['UseDbSearch'] boolean</dt>
<dd>Define whether the "search string inside database" is enabled or not.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_IgnoreMultiSubmitErrors">$cfg['IgnoreMultiSubmitErrors'] boolean</dt>
<dd>Define whether phpMyAdmin will continue executing a multi-query
statement if one of the queries fails. Default is to abort execution.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_VerboseMultiSubmit">$cfg['VerboseMultiSubmit'] boolean</dt>

MySQL servers behind the firewall where your
<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> server is placed.
</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LeftFrameLight">$cfg['LeftFrameLight'] boolean</dt>
<dd>Defines whether to use a select-based menu and display only the current
tables in the left frame (smaller page). Only in Non-Lightmode you can
use the feature to display nested folders using
<a href="#cfg_LeftFrameTableSeparator" class="configrule">$cfg['LeftFrameTableSeparator']</a>
</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LeftFrameDBTree">$cfg['LeftFrameDBTree'] boolean</dt>
<dd>In light mode, defines whether to display the names of databases (in the
selector) using a tree, see also
<a href="#cfg_LeftFrameDBSeparator" class="configrule">$cfg['LeftFrameDBSeparator']</a>.
</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LeftFrameDBSeparator">$cfg['LeftFrameDBSeparator']
string or array</dt>
<dd>The string used to separate the parts of the database name when showing

and all of them will be used as a separator.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LeftFrameTableSeparator">$cfg['LeftFrameTableSeparator'] string</dt>
<dd>Defines a string to be used to nest table spaces. Defaults to '__'.
This means if you have tables like 'first__second__third' this will be
shown as a three-level hierarchy like: first > second > third.
If set to FALSE or empty, the feature is disabled. NOTE: You should
not use this separator at the beginning or end of a
table name or multiple times after another without any other
characters in between.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LeftFrameTableLevel">$cfg['LeftFrameTableLevel'] string</dt>
<dd>Defines how many sublevels should be displayed when splitting
up tables by the above separator.</dd>

<dd>Defines whether to display table comment as tool-tip in left frame or
not.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_ShowTooltipAliasDB">$cfg['ShowTooltipAliasDB'] boolean</dt>
<dd>If tool-tips are enabled and a DB comment is set, this will flip the
comment and the real name. That means that if you have a table called
'user0001' and add the comment 'MyName' on it, you will see the name
'MyName' used consequently in the left frame and the tool-tip shows
the real name of the DB.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_ShowTooltipAliasTB">$cfg['ShowTooltipAliasTB'] boolean/string</dt>
<dd>Same as <a href="#cfg_ShowTooltipAliasDB" class="configrule">$cfg['ShowTooltipAliasDB']</a>, except this works for table names.
When setting this to 'nested', the Alias of the Tablename is only used
to split/nest the tables according to the
<a href="#cfg_LeftFrameTableSeparator" class="configrule">$cfg['LeftFrameTableSeparator']</a>
directive. So only the folder is called like the Alias, the tablename itself
stays the real tablename.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_LeftDisplayLogo">$cfg['LeftDisplayLogo'] boolean</dt>

Defaults to FALSE (drop-down).</dd>
<dt id="cfg_DisplayDatabasesList">$cfg['DisplayDatabasesList'] boolean or text</dt>
<dd>Defines whether to display database choice in light navigation frame as links
instead of in a drop-down. Defaults to 'auto' - on main page list is

</dt>
<dd>Defines whether to display the "PHP information" and
"Change password " links and form for creating database or
not at the starting main (right) frame. This setting
does not check MySQL commands entered directly.<br /><br />
Please note that to block the usage of phpinfo() in scripts, you
have to put this in your <i>php.ini</i>:
<pre>disable_functions = phpinfo()</pre>
Also note that enabling the "Change password " link has no
effect with "config" authentication mode: because of the
hard coded password value in the configuration file, end users can't
be allowed to change their passwords.</dd>

setting.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_ForeignKeyDropdownOrder">$cfg['ForeignKeyDropdownOrder'] array</dt>
<dd>For the foreign key drop-down fields, there are several methods of
display, offering both the key and value data. The contents of the
array should be one or both of the following strings:

<dd>Defines whether to allow on the fly compression for GZip/BZip2
compressed exports. This doesn't affect smaller dumps and allows users to
create larger dumps that won't otherwise fit in memory due to php
memory limit. Produced files contain more GZip/BZip2 headers, but all
normal programs handle this correctly.</dd>

this setting.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_DefaultConnectionCollation">$cfg['DefaultConnectionCollation'] string</dt>
<dd>Defines the default connection collation to use, if not
user-defined.<br />
See the <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/charset-charsets.html">MySQL
documentation</a> for list of possible values.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_Lang">$cfg['Lang'] string</dt>
<dd>Force: always use this language (must be defined in the
<i>select_lang.lib.php</i> script).</dd>
<dt id="cfg_FilterLanguages">$cfg['FilterLanguages'] string</dt>
<dd>Limit list of available languages to those matching the given regular

set filter to <code>'^(cs|en)'</code>.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_DefaultCharset">$cfg['DefaultCharset'] string</dt>
<dd>Default character set to use for recoding of MySQL queries. This must be
enabled and it's described by
<a href="#cfg_AllowAnywhereRecoding" class="configrule">$cfg['AllowAnywhereRecoding']</a>
option.<br />
You can give here any character set which is in
<a href="#cfg_AvailableCharsets" class="configrule">$cfg['AvailableCharsets']</a>
array and this is just default choice, user can select any of them.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_AllowAnywhereRecoding">$cfg['AllowAnywhereRecoding'] boolean</dt>
<dd>Allow character set recoding of MySQL queries. You need recode or iconv
support (compiled in or module) in PHP to allow MySQL queries recoding
and used language file must have it enabled (by default only these
which are in Unicode, just to avoid losing some characters).<br /><br />
Setting this to <tt>TRUE</tt> also activates a pull-down menu
in the Export and Import pages, to choose the character set when
exporting a file. The default value in this menu comes from
<tt>$cfg['Export']['charset']</tt> and <tt>$cfg['Import']['charset']</tt>.
</dd>
<dt id="cfg_RecodingEngine">$cfg['RecodingEngine'] string</dt>
<dd>You can select here which functions will be used for character set
conversion. Possible values are:
<ul><li>auto - automatically use available one (first is tested
iconv, then recode)</li>
<li>iconv - use iconv or libiconv functions</li>
<li>recode - use recode_string function</li>
</ul>
Default is auto.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_IconvExtraParams">$cfg['IconvExtraParams'] string</dt>
<dd>Specify some parameters for iconv used in charset conversion. See
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/documentation/libiconv/iconv_open.3.html">iconv
documentation</a> for details. By default <code>//TRANSLIT</code> is
used, so that invalid characters will be transliterated.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_AvailableCharsets">$cfg['AvailableCharsets'] array</dt>
<dd>Available character sets for MySQL conversion. You can add your own (any of
supported by recode/iconv) or remove these which you don't use.
Character sets will be shown in same order as here listed, so if you
frequently use some of these move them to the top.</dd>
<dt id="cfg_TrustedProxies">$cfg['TrustedProxies'] array</dt>
<dd>Lists proxies and HTTP headers which are trusted for <a
href="#servers_allowdeny_order">IP Allow/Deny</a>. This list is by
default empty, you need to fill in some trusted proxy servers if you
want to use rules for IP addresses behind proxy.<br /><br />
The following example specifies that phpMyAdmin should trust a
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR (<tt>X-Forwarded-For</tt>) header coming from the proxy 1.2.3.4:
<pre>
$cfg['TrustedProxies'] =
array('1.2.3.4' => 'HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR');
</pre>
The $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules'] directive uses the
client's IP address as usual.
</dd>
<dt id="cfg_GD2Available">$cfg['GD2Available'] string</dt>
<dd>Specifies whether GD >= 2 is available. If yes it can be used for
MIME transformations.<br />
Possible values are:
<ul><li>auto - automatically detect, this is a bit expensive
operation for php < 4.3.0 so it is preferred to change this
according to your server real possibilities</li>
<li>yes - GD 2 functions can be used</li>
<li>no - GD 2 function cannot be used</li>
</ul>
Default is auto.
</dd>
<dt id="cfg_CheckConfigurationPermissions">$cfg['CheckConfigurationPermissions'] boolean</dt>
<dd>
We normally check the permissions on the configuration file to ensure
it's not world writable. However, phpMyAdmin could be installed on
a NTFS filesystem mounted on a non-Windows server, in which case the
permissions seems wrong but in fact cannot be detected. In this case
a sysadmin would set this parameter to <tt>FALSE</tt>. Default is <tt>TRUE</tt>.

<dt id="cfg_DefaultDisplay">$cfg['DefaultDisplay'] string
<span id="cfg_HeaderFlipType">$cfg['HeaderFlipType'] </span>string
</dt>
<dd>There are 3 display modes: horizontal, horizontalflipped and vertical.
Define which one is displayed by default. The first mode displays each
row on a horizontal line, the second rotates the headers by 90
degrees, so you can use descriptive headers even though fields only
contain small values and still print them out. The vertical mode sorts
each row on a vertical lineup.<br /><br />
The HeaderFlipType can be set to 'css' or 'fake'. When using 'css'
the rotation of the header for horizontalflipped is done via CSS. If
set to 'fake' PHP does the transformation for you, but of course this
does not look as good as CSS.</dd>
<dt id="DefaultPropDisplay">
<span id="cfg_DefaultPropDisplay">$cfg['DefaultPropDisplay']</span>
string or integer</dt>
<dd>When editing/creating new columns in a table all fields normally get
lined up one field a line. (default: 'horizontal'). If you set this to
'vertical' you can have each field lined up vertically beneath each
other. You can save up a lot of place on the horizontal direction and
no longer have to scroll. If you set this to integer, editing of fewer
columns will appear in 'vertical' mode, while editing of more fields
still in 'horizontal' mode. This way you can still effectively edit
large number of fields, while having full view on few of them.</dd>

The name of the directory where
<abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr> files have been
uploaded by other means than phpMyAdmin (for example, ftp). Those files
are available under a drop-down box when you click the database or
table name, then the Import tab.
<br /><br />
If you want different directory for each user, %u will be replaced
with username.<br /><br />
Please note that the file names must have the suffix ".sql"
(or ".sql.bz2" or ".sql.gz" if support for
compressed formats is enabled).<br /><br />
This feature is useful when your file is too big to be uploaded via
<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr>, or when file
uploads are disabled in PHP.<br /><br />
Please note that if PHP is running in safe mode, this directory must
be owned by the same user as the owner of the phpMyAdmin scripts.

</dd>
<dt id="cfg_TempDir">$cfg['TempDir'] string</dt>
<dd>
The name of the directory where temporary files can be stored.
<br /><br />
This is needed for native MS Excel export, see
<a href="#faq6_23"><abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr>
6.23</a> and to work around limitations of
<tt>open_basedir</tt> for uploaded
files, see <a href="#faq1_11"><abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr>
1.11</a>.
<br /><br />
If the directory where phpMyAdmin is installed is subject to an
<tt>open_basedir</tt> restriction, you need to create a
temporary directory in some directory accessible by the web
server. However for security reasons, this directory should be outside
the tree published by webserver. If you cannot avoid having this
directory published by webserver, place at least an empty
<tt>index.html</tt> file there, so that directory listing is not
possible.
<br /><br />
This directory should have as strict permissions as possible as the only
user required to access this directory is the one who runs the
webserver. If you have root privileges, simply make this user owner of
this directory and make it accessible only by it:
<br /><br />
<pre>
chown www-data:www-data tmp
chmod 700 tmp
</pre>
If you cannot change owner of the directory, you can achieve a similar
setup using <abbr title="Access Control List">ACL</abbr>:
<pre>
chmod 700 tmp
setfacl -m "g:www-data:rwx" tmp
setfacl -d -m "g:www-data:rwx" tmp
</pre>
If neither of above works for you, you can still make the directory
<code>chmod 777</code>, but it might impose risk of other users on
system reading and writing data in this directory.

All those variables affect the query window feature. A <tt><abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr></tt> link
or icon is always displayed on the left panel. If JavaScript is enabled in
your browser, a click on this opens a distinct query window, which is
a direct interface to enter <abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr> queries. Otherwise, the right panel
changes to display a query box.<br /><br />
The size of this query window can be customized with
<tt>$cfg['QueryWindowWidth']</tt> and <tt>$cfg['QueryWindowHeight']</tt>
- both integers for the size in pixels. Note that normally, those
parameters will be modified in <tt>layout.inc.php</tt> for the
theme you are using.<br /><br />
If <tt>$cfg['EditInWindow']</tt> is set to true, a click on [Edit]
from the results page (in the "Showing Rows" section)
opens the query window and puts the current query
inside it. If set to false, clicking on the link puts the <abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr>
query in the right panel's query box.
<br /><br />
The usage of the JavaScript query window is recommended if you have a
JavaScript enabled browser. Basic functions are used to exchange quite
a few variables, so most 4th generation browsers should be capable to
use that feature. It currently is only tested with Internet Explorer 6
and Mozilla 1.x.
<br /><br />
If <tt>$cfg['QueryHistoryDB']</tt> is set to <tt>TRUE</tt>, all your Queries are logged
to a table, which has to be created by you (see <a
href="#history" class="configrule">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['history']</a>). If set to FALSE,
all your queries will be appended to the form, but only as long as
your window is opened they remain saved.
<br /><br />
When using the JavaScript based query window, it will always get
updated when you click on a new table/db to browse and will focus if
you click on "Edit <abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr>" after using a query. You can suppress updating
the query window by checking the box "Do not overwrite this query from
outside the window" below the query textarea. Then you can browse
tables/databases in the background without losing the contents of the
textarea, so this is especially useful when composing a query with
tables you first have to look in. The checkbox will get automatically
checked whenever you change the contents of the textarea. Please
uncheck the button whenever you definitely want the query window to
get updated even though you have made alterations.
<br /><br />
If <tt>$cfg['QueryHistoryDB']</tt> is set to <tt>TRUE</tt> you can specify the amount of
saved history items using <tt>$cfg['QueryHistoryMax']</tt>.
<br /><br />
The query window also has a custom tabbed look to group the features.
Using the variable <tt>$cfg['QueryWindowDefTab']</tt> you can specify the
default tab to be used when opening the query window. It can be set to
either 'sql', 'files', 'history' or 'full'.</dd>

where you edit x/y coordinates of those elements you can activate a
scratchboard where all your elements are placed. By clicking on an
element, you can move them around in the pre-defined area and the x/y
coordinates will get updated dynamically. Likewise, when entering a
new position directly into the input field, the new position in the
scratchboard changes after your cursor leaves the input field.<br />
You have to click on the 'OK'-button below the tables to save the new
positions. If you want to place a new element, first add it to the
table of elements and then you can drag the new element around.<br />
By changing the paper size and the orientation you can change the size
of the scratchboard as well. You can do so by just changing the
dropdown field below, and the scratchboard will resize automatically,
without interfering with the current placement of the elements.<br />
If ever an element gets out of range you can either enlarge the paper
size or click on the 'reset' button to place all elements below each
other.<br />

<ol><li><a href="#transformationsintro">Introduction</a></li>
<li><a href="#transformationshowto">Usage</a></li>
<li><a href="#transformationsfiles">File structure</a></li>
</ol>
<h3 id="transformationsintro">1. Introduction</h3>
<p> To enable transformations, you have to setup the <tt>column_info</tt> table
and the proper directives. Please see the <a href="#config">Configuration
section</a> on how to do so.</p>
<p> You can apply different transformations to the contents of each field. The
transformation will take the content of each field and transform it with
certain rules defined in the selected transformation.</p>
<p> Say you have a field 'filename' which contains a filename. Normally you would
see in phpMyAdmin only this filename. Using transformations you can transform
that filename into a HTML link, so you can click inside of the phpMyAdmin
structure on the field's link and will see the file displayed in a new browser
window. Using transformation options you can also specify strings to
append/prepend to a string or the format you want the output stored in.</p>
<p> For a general overview of all available transformations and their options,
you can consult your
<i><www.your-host.com>/<your-install-dir>/transformation_overview.php</i>
installation.</p>
<p> For a tutorial on how to effectively use transformations, see our
<a href="http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/docs.php">Link section</a> on
the official phpMyAdmin homepage.</p>
<h3 id="transformationshowto">2. Usage</h3>
<p> Go to your <i>tbl_structure.php</i> page (i.e. reached through
clicking on the 'Structure' link for a table). There click on
"Change" (or change icon) and there you will see three new fields at
the end of the line. They are called 'MIME-type', 'Browser transformation' and
'Transformation options'.</p>
<ul><li>The field 'MIME-type' is a drop-down field. Select the MIME-type
that corresponds to the column's contents. Please note that
transformations are inactive as long as no MIME-type is selected.</li>
<li>The field 'Browser transformation' is a drop-down field. You can choose from a
hopefully growing amount of pre-defined transformations. See below for information on
how to build your own transformation.<br />
There are global transformations and mimetype-bound transformations. Global transformations
can be used for any mimetype. They will take the mimetype, if necessary, into regard.
Mimetype-bound transformations usually only operate on a certain mimetype. There are
transformations which operate on the main mimetype (like 'image'), which will most likely
take the subtype into regard, and those who only operate on a
specific subtype (like 'image/jpeg').<br />
You can use transformations on mimetypes for which the function was not defined for. There
is no security check for you selected the right transformation, so take care of what the
output will be like.</li>
<li>The field 'Transformation options' is a free-type textfield. You have to enter
transform-function specific options here. Usually the transforms can operate with default
options, but it is generally a good idea to look up the overview to see which options are
necessary.<br />
Much like the ENUM/SET-Fields, you have to split up several options using the format
'a','b','c',...(NOTE THE MISSING BLANKS). This is because internally the options will be
parsed as an array, leaving the first value the first element in the array, and so
forth.<br />
If you want to specify a MIME character set you can define it in the transformation_options.
You have to put that outside of the pre-defined options of the specific mime-transform,
as the last value of the set. Use the format "'; charset=XXX'". If you use a transform,
for which you can specify 2 options and you want to append a character set, enter "'first
parameter','second parameter','charset=us-ascii'". You can, however use the defaults for
the parameters: "'','','charset=us-ascii'".</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="transformationsfiles">3. File structure</h3>
<p> All mimetypes and their transformations are defined through single files in
the directory 'libraries/transformations/'.</p>
<p> They are stored in files to ease up customization and easy adding of new
transformations.</p>
<p> Because the user cannot enter own mimetypes, it is kept sure that transformations
always work. It makes no sense to apply a transformation to a mimetype, the
transform-function doesn't know to handle.</p>
<p> One can, however, use empty mime-types and global transformations which should work
for many mimetypes. You can also use transforms on a different mimetype they where built
for, but pay attention to option usage as well as what the transformation does to your
field.</p>
<p> There is a basic file called '<i>global.inc.php</i>'. This function can be included by
any other transform function and provides some basic functions.</p>
<p> There are 5 possible file names:</p>
<ol><li>A mimetype+subtype transform:<br /><br />
<tt>[mimetype]_[subtype]__[transform].inc.php</tt><br /><br />
Please not that mimetype and subtype are separated via '_', which shall
not be contained in their names. The transform function/filename may
contain only characters which cause no problems in the file system as
well as the PHP function naming convention.<br /><br />
The transform function will the be called
'<tt>PMA_transform_[mimetype]_[subtype]__[transform]()</tt>'.<br /><br />
<b>Example:</b><br /><br />
<tt>text_html__formatted.inc.php</tt><br />
<tt>PMA_transform_text_html__formatted()</tt></li>
<li>A mimetype (w/o subtype) transform:<br /><br />
<tt>[mimetype]__[transform].inc.php</tt><br /><br />
Please note that there are no single '_' characters.
The transform function/filename may contain only characters which cause
no problems in the file system as well as the PHP function naming
convention.<br /><br />
The transform function will the be called
'<tt>PMA_transform_[mimetype]__[transform]()</tt>'.<br /><br />
<b>Example:</b><br /><br />
<tt>text__formatted.inc.php</tt><br />
<tt>PMA_transform_text__formatted()</tt></li>
<li>A mimetype+subtype without specific transform function<br /><br />
<tt>[mimetype]_[subtype].inc.php</tt><br /><br />
Please note that there are no '__' characters in the filename. Do not
use special characters in the filename causing problems with the file
system.<br /><br />
No transformation function is defined in the file itself.<br /><br />
<b>Example:</b><br /><br />
<tt>text_plain.inc.php</tt><br />
(No function)</li>
<li>A mimetype (w/o subtype) without specific transform function<br /><br />
<tt>[mimetype].inc.php</tt><br /><br />
Please note that there are no '_' characters in the filename. Do not use
special characters in the filename causing problems with the file system.
<br /><br />
No transformation function is defined in the file itself.<br /><br />
<b>Example:</b><br /><br />
<tt>text.inc.php</tt><br />
(No function)</li>
<li>A global transform function with no specific mimetype<br /><br />
<tt>global__[transform].inc.php</tt><br /><br />
The transform function will the be called
'<tt>PMA_transform_global__[transform]()</tt>'.<br /><br />
<b>Example:</b><br /><br />
<tt>global__formatted</tt><br />
<tt>PMA_transform_global__formatted()</tt></li>
</ol>
<p> So generally use '_' to split up mimetype and subtype, and '__' to provide a
transform function.</p>
<p> All filenames containing no '__' in themselves are not shown as valid transform
functions in the dropdown.</p>
<p> Please see the libraries/transformations/TEMPLATE file for adding your own transform
function. See the libraries/transformations/TEMPLATE_MIMETYPE for adding a mimetype
without a transform function. Also note the introduction of a function description in
the language files. For each function a $strTransformation_[filename without .inc.php]
has to exist.</p>
<p> You can use the template generator to generate new functions and entries in the
language file.</p>
<p> To create a new transform function please see
<tt>libraries/transformations/template_generator.sh</tt>.
To create a new, empty mimetype please see
<tt>libraries/transformations/template_generator_mimetype.sh</tt>.</p>
<p> A transform function always gets passed three variables:</p>
<ol><li><b>$buffer</b> - Contains the text inside of the column. This is the text,
you want to transform.</li>
<li><b>$options</b> - Contains any user-passed options to a transform function
as an array.</li>
<li><b>$meta</b> - Contains an object with field information to your column.
The data is drawn from the output of the
<a href="http://www.php.net/mysql_fetch_field">mysql_fetch_field()</a>
function. This means, all object properties described on the
<a href="http://www.php.net/mysql_fetch_field">manual page</a> are
available in this variable and can be used to transform a field accordingly
to unsigned/zerofill/not_null/... properties.<br />
The $meta->mimetype variable contains the original MIME-type of the
field (i.e. 'text/plain', 'image/jpeg' etc.)</li>

<a href="#faq1_7">1.7 How can I GZip or Bzip a dump or a
<abbr title="comma separated values">CSV</abbr> export? It does not seem to

<p> These features are based on the <tt>gzencode()</tt> and <tt>bzcompress()</tt>
PHP functions to be more independent of the platform (Unix/Windows, Safe Mode
or not, and so on). So, you must have PHP4 >= 4.0.4 and Zlib/Bzip2
support (<tt>--with-zlib</tt> and <tt>--with-bz2</tt>).<br />
We faced PHP crashes when trying to download a dump with MS Internet
Explorer when phpMyAdmin is run with a release candidate of PHP 4.2.0. In
this case you should switch to the release version of PHP 4.2.0.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_8">
<a href="#faq1_8">1.8 I cannot insert a text file in a table, and I get
an error about safe mode being in effect.</a></h4>
<p> Your uploaded file is saved by PHP in the "upload dir", as
defined in <i>php.ini</i> by the variable <tt>upload_tmp_dir</tt> (usually
the system default is <i>/tmp</i>).<br />
We recommend the following setup for Apache servers running in safe mode,
to enable uploads of files while being reasonably secure:</p>
<ul><li>create a separate directory for uploads: <tt>mkdir /tmp/php</tt></li>
<li>give ownership to the Apache server's user.group:
<tt>chown apache.apache /tmp/php</tt></li>
<li>give proper permission: <tt>chmod 600 /tmp/php</tt></li>
<li>put <tt>upload_tmp_dir = /tmp/php</tt> in <i>php.ini</i></li>
<li>restart Apache</li>
</ul>

<a href="#faq1_9">1.9 I'm having troubles when uploading files. In
general file uploads don't work on my system and uploaded files have a
<tt>Content-Type:</tt> header in the first line.</a></h4>
<p> It's not really phpMyAdmin related but RedHat 7.0. You have a RedHat 7.0
and you updated your PHP RPM to php-4.0.4pl1-3.i386.rpm, didn't you?<br />
So the problem is that this package has a serious bug that was corrected
ages ago in PHP (2001-01-28: see
<a href="http://www.php.net/bugs.php?id=8966">PHP's bug tracking system</a>
for more details). The problem is that the bugged package is still
available though it was corrected (see
<a href="http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24933">RedHat's BugZilla</a>
for more details).<br />
So please download
<a href="http://www.redhat.com/swr/i386/php-4.0.4pl1-9.i386.html">the fixed package (4.0.4pl1-9)</a>
and the problem should go away.<br />
And that fixes the \r\n problem with file uploads!</p>

<a href="#faq1_10">1.10 I'm having troubles when uploading files with
phpMyAdmin running on a secure server. My browser is Internet Explorer and

<p> As suggested by "Rob M" in the phpWizard forum, add this line to
your <i>httpd.conf</i>:</p>
<pre>SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown</pre>
<p> It seems to clear up many problems between Internet Explorer and SSL.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_11">
<a href="#faq1_11">1.11 I get an 'open_basedir restriction' while
uploading a file from the query box.</a></h4>
<p> Since version 2.2.4, phpMyAdmin supports servers with open_basedir
restrictions. However you need to create temporary directory and
configure it as <a href="#cfg_TempDir" class="configrule">$cfg['TempDir']</a>.
The uploaded files will be moved there, and after execution of your
<abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr> commands, removed.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_12">

<a href="#faq1_15">1.15 I have problems with <i>mysql.user</i> field names.</a>
</h4>
<p> In previous MySQL versions, the <tt>User</tt> and <tt>Password</tt> fields
were named <tt>user</tt> and <tt>password</tt>. Please modify your field
names to align with current standards.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_16">
<a href="#faq1_16">1.16 I cannot upload big dump files (memory,
<abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or timeout problems).</a>
</h4>
<p> Starting with version 2.7.0, the import engine has been re–written and these
problems should not occur. If possible, upgrade your phpMyAdmin to the latest version
to take advantage of the new import features.</p>
<p> The first things to check (or ask your host provider to check) are the
values of <tt>upload_max_filesize</tt>, <tt>memory_limit</tt> and
<tt>post_max_size</tt> in the <i>php.ini</i> configuration file.
All of these three settings limit the maximum size of data that can be
submitted and handled by PHP. One user also said that post_max_size
and memory_limit need to be larger than upload_max_filesize.<br /> <br />
There exist several workarounds if your upload is too big or your
hosting provider is unwilling to change the settings:</p>
<ul><li>Look at the <a href="#cfg_UploadDir" class="configrule">$cfg['UploadDir']</a>
feature. This allows one to
upload a file to the server via scp, ftp, or your favorite file transfer
method. PhpMyAdmin is then able to import the files from the temporary
directory. More information is available in the <a href="#config">Configuration
section</a> of this document.</li>
<li>Using a utility (such as <a href="http://www.ozerov.de/bigdump.php">
BigDump</a>) to split the files before uploading. We cannot support this
or any third party applications, but are aware of users having success
with it.</li>
<li>If you have shell (command line) access, use MySQL to import the files
directly. You can do this by issuing the "source" command from
within MySQL: <tt>source <i>filename.sql</i></tt>.</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="faq1_17">
<a id="faqmysqlversions" href="#faq1_17">1.17 Which MySQL versions does phpMyAdmin
support?</a></h4>
<p> In phpMyAdmin 3.0.x, versions starting with MySQL 5.0.1 are
fully supported. phpMyAdmin may connect to your MySQL server
using PHP's classic
<a href="http://php.net/mysql">MySQL extension</a> as well as the
<a href="http://php.net/mysqli">improved MySQL extension (MySQLi)</a> that
is available in php 5.0.<br />
Either way, the developers of both extensions recommend to use the classic
extension for MySQL 4.0 and below and MySQLi for MySQL 4.1 and newer.<br />
When compiling php, we strongly recommend that you manually link the MySQL
extension of your choice to a MySQL client library of at least the same
minor version since the one that is bundled with some PHP distributions is
rather old and might cause problems <a href="#faq1_17a">
(see <abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr> 1.17a)</a>.
If your webserver is running on a windows system, you might want to try
MySQL's
<a href="http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/php/">Connector/PHP</a>
instead of the MySQL / MySQLi extensions that are bundled with the official
php Win32 builds.</p>
<h5 id="faq1_17a">
<a href="#faq1_17a">1.17a I cannot connect to the MySQL server. It always returns the error
message, "Client does not support authentication protocol requested
by server; consider upgrading MySQL client"</a></h5>
<p> You tried to access MySQL with an old MySQL client library. The version of
your MySQL client library can be checked in your phpinfo() output.
In general, it should have at least the same minor version as your server
- as mentioned in <a href="#faq1_17">
<abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr> 1.17</a>.<br /><br />
This problem is generally caused by using MySQL version 4.1 or newer. MySQL
changed the authentication hash and your PHP is trying to use the old method.
The proper solution is to use the <a href="http://www.php.net/mysqli">mysqli extension</a>
with the proper client library to match your MySQL installation. Your
chosen extension is specified in <a href="#cfg_Servers_extension" class="configrule">$cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension']</a>.
More information (and several workarounds) are located in the
<a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/old-client.html">MySQL Documentation</a>.

capital letter in its name it is changed to lowercase as it should. But
if I try to DROP this table MySQL is unable to find the corresponding
file.</a></h4>
<p> This is a bug of MySQL <= 4.0.1. Please upgrade to at least
MySQL 4.0.2 or turn off your <tt>lower_case_table_names</tt>
directive.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_19">
<a href="#faq1_19">1.19 I can't run the "display relations" feature because the

<h4 id="faqmysql">
<a href="#faqmysql">1.20 I receive the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please
check PHP Configuration".</a></h4>
<p> To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of MySQL functions called
"MySQL extension". This extension may be part of the PHP
distribution (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded dynamically. Its
name is probably <i>mysql.so</i> or <i>php_mysql.dll</i>. phpMyAdmin tried
to load the extension but failed.<br /><br />
Usually, the problem is solved by installing a software package called
"PHP-MySQL" or something similar.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_21">
<a href="#faq1_21">1.21 I am running the
<abbr title="Common Gateway Interface">CGI</abbr> version of PHP under Unix,

<h4 id="faq1_22">
<a href="#faq1_22">1.22 I don't see the "Location of text file" field,
so I cannot upload.</a></h4>
<p> This is most likely because in <i>php.ini</i>, your <tt>file_uploads</tt>

<h4 id="faq1_23">
<a href="#faq1_23">1.23 I'm running MySQL on a Win32 machine. Each time I create
a new table the table and field names are changed to lowercase!</a></h4>
<p> This happens because the MySQL directive <tt>lower_case_table_names</tt>
defaults to 1 (<tt>ON</tt>) in the Win32 version of MySQL. You can change
this behavior by simply changing the directive to 0 (<tt>OFF</tt>):<br />
Just edit your <tt>my.ini</tt> file that should be located in your Windows
directory and add the following line to the group [mysqld]:</p>
<pre>set-variable = lower_case_table_names=0</pre>
<p> Next, save the file and restart the MySQL service. You can always check the
value of this directive using the query</p>
<pre>SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'lower_case_table_names';</pre>
<h4 id="faq1_24">
<a href="#faq1_24">1.24 Some characters are being truncated in my queries, or I

<p> This is a <a href="http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=19404">PHP 4.2.3 bug</a>.
</p>
<h4 id="faq1_25">
<a href="#faq1_25">1.25 I am running Apache with mod_gzip-1.3.26.1a on Windows XP,
and I get problems, such as undefined variables when I run a

<p> A tip from Jose Fandos: put a comment on the following two lines
in httpd.conf, like this:</p>
<pre>
# mod_gzip_item_include file \.php$
# mod_gzip_item_include mime "application/x-httpd-php.*"
</pre>
<p> as this version of mod_gzip on Apache (Windows) has problems handling
PHP scripts. Of course you have to restart Apache.</p>

<p> This is a permission problem. Right-click on the phpmyadmin folder
and choose properties. Under the tab Security, click on "Add"
and select the user "IUSR_machine" from the list. Now set his
permissions and it should work.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_27">
<a href="#faq1_27">1.27 I get empty page when I want to view huge page (eg.

<p> This is a <a href="http://bugs.php.net/21079">PHP bug</a> that occur when
GZIP output buffering is enabled. If you turn off it (by

PHP 5.0.0.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_28">
<a href="#faq1_28">1.28 My MySQL server sometimes refuses queries and returns the
message 'Errorcode: 13'. What does this mean?</a></h4>
<p> This can happen due to a MySQL bug when having database / table names with
upper case characters although <tt>lower_case_table_names</tt> is set to 1.
To fix this, turn off this directive, convert all database and table names
to lower case and turn it on again. Alternatively, there's a bug-fix
available starting with MySQL 3.23.56 / 4.0.11-gamma.</p>
<h4 id="faq1_29">
<a href="#faq1_29">1.29 When I create a table or modify a field, I get an error

<p> It is possible to configure Apache in such a way that PHP has problems

<p> The problems occur when two different (and conflicting) set of directives
are used:</p>
<pre>
SetOutputFilter PHP
SetInputFilter PHP
</pre>
<p> and</p>
<pre>AddType application/x-httpd-php .php</pre>
<p> In the case we saw, one set of directives was in

the other set was in <tt>/etc/httpd/conf/addon-modules/php.conf</tt>.<br />
The recommended way is with <tt>AddType</tt>, so just comment out
the first set of lines and restart Apache:</p>
<pre>
#SetOutputFilter PHP

you need mod_rewrite to be enabled. Then you just need to create following
<code>.htaccess</code> file in root folder of phpMyAdmin installation
(don't forget to change directory name inside of it):</p>
<pre>

<p> For RedHat users, Harald Legner suggests this on the mailing list:</p>
<p> On my RedHat-Box the socket of MySQL is <i>/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock</i>.
In your <i>php.ini</i> you will find a line</p>
<pre>mysql.default_socket = /tmp/mysql.sock</pre>
<p> change it to</p>
<pre>mysql.default_socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock</pre>
<p> Then restart apache and it will work.</p>
<p> Here is a fix suggested by Brad Ummer:</p>
<ul><li>First, you need to determine what socket is being used by MySQL.<br />
To do this, telnet to your server and go to the MySQL bin directory. In
this directory there should be a file named <i>mysqladmin</i>. Type
<tt>./mysqladmin variables</tt>, and this should give you a bunch of
info about your MySQL server, including the socket
(<i>/tmp/mysql.sock</i>, for example).</li>
<li>Then, you need to tell PHP to use this socket.<br /> To do this in
phpMyAdmin, you need to complete the socket information in the
<i>config.inc.php</i>.<br />
For example:
<a href="#cfg_Servers_socket" class="configrule">
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket'] = '/tmp/mysql.sock';</a>
<br /><br />
Please also make sure that the permissions of this file allow to be readable
by your webserver (i.e. '0755').</li>

<p> When you are using a port on your localhost, which you redirect via
port-forwarding to another host, MySQL is not resolving the localhost

Erik Wasser explains: The solution is: if your host is "localhost"
MySQL (the commandline tool 'mysql' as well) always tries to use the socket
connection for speeding up things. And that doesn't work in this configuration

<h4 id="faqthemes"><a href="#faqthemes">2.7 Using and creating themes</a></h4>
<p> Themes are configured with
<a href="#cfg_ThemePath" class="configrule">$cfg['ThemePath']</a>,
<a href="#cfg_ThemeManager" class="configrule">$cfg['ThemeManager']</a> and
<a href="#cfg_ThemeDefault" class="configrule">$cfg['ThemeDefault']</a>.<br />
<br />
Under <a href="#cfg_ThemePath" class="configrule">$cfg['ThemePath']</a>, you
should not delete the directory "original" or its underlying
structure, because this is the system theme used by phpMyAdmin.
"original" contains all images and styles, for backwards
compatibility and for all themes that would not include images or css-files.
<br /><br />
If <a href="#cfg_ThemeManager" class="configrule">$cfg['ThemeManager']</a>
is enabled, you can select your favorite theme on the main page. Your
selected theme will be stored in a cookie.<br /><br /></p>
<p> To create a theme:</p>
<ul><li>make a new subdirectory (for example "your_theme_name") under
<a href="#cfg_ThemePath" class="configrule">$cfg['ThemePath']</a>
(by default <tt>themes</tt>)</li>
<li>copy the files and directories from "original" to
"your_theme_name"</li>
<li>edit the css-files in "your_theme_name/css"</li>
<li>put your new images in "your_theme_name/img"</li>
<li>edit <tt>layout.inc.php</tt> in "your_theme_name"</li>
<li>edit <tt>info.inc.php</tt> in "your_theme_name" to
contain your chosen theme name, that will be visible in user interface</li>
<li>make a new screenshot of your theme and save it under
"your_theme_name/screen.png"</li>
</ul>
<p> In theme directory there is file <tt>info.inc.php</tt> which contains
theme verbose name, theme generation and theme version. These versions and
generations are enumerated from 1 and do not have any direct dependence on
phpMyAdmin version. Themes within same generation should be backwards
compatible - theme with version 2 should work in phpMyAdmin requiring
version 1. Themes with different generation are incompatible.</p>
<p> If you do not want to use your own symbols and buttons, remove the
directory "img" in "your_theme_name". phpMyAdmin will
use the default icons and buttons (from the system-theme "original").

<p>
This depends on your system.<br />
If you're running a server which cannot be accessed by other people, it's
sufficient to use the directory protection bundled with your webserver
(with Apache you can use <i>.htaccess</i> files, for example).<br />
If other people have telnet access to your server, you should use
phpMyAdmin's <abbr title="HyperText Transfer Protocol">HTTP</abbr> or cookie authentication features.
<br /><br />
Suggestions:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Your <i>config.inc.php</i> file should be <tt>chmod 660</tt>.
</li>
<li>
All your phpMyAdmin files should be chown -R phpmy.apache, where phpmy
is a user whose password is only known to you, and apache is the
group under which Apache runs.
</li>
<li>
You should use PHP safe mode, to protect from other users that try
to include your <i>config.inc.php</i> in their scripts.

a real NULL value, so if you enter "NULL" this means you want
a literal NULL in the field, and not a NULL value (this works in PHP4).

<p>
First the configuration variables "relation",
"table_coords" and "pdf_pages" have to be filled in.
<br /><br />
Then you need to think about your schema layout. Which tables will go on
which pages?
</p>
<ul>
<li>Select your database in the left frame.</li>
<li>Choose "Operations" in the navigation bar at the top.</li>
<li>Choose "Edit <abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr>
Pages" near the bottom of the page.</li>
<li>Enter a name for the first <abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr>
page and click Go. If you like, you
can use the "automatic layout," which will put all your
linked tables onto the new page.</li>
<li>Select the name of the new page (making sure the Edit radio button
is selected) and click Go.</li>
<li>Select a table from the list, enter its coordinates and click Save.<br />
Coordinates are relative; your diagram will
be automatically scaled to fit the page. When initially placing tables
on the page, just pick any coordinates -- say, 50x50. After clicking
Save, you can then use the <a href="#wysiwyg">graphical editor</a> to
position the element correctly.</li>
<li>When you'd like to look at your <abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr>,
first be sure to click the Save
button beneath the list of tables and coordinates, to save any changes
you made there. Then scroll all the way down, select the
<abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr> options
you want, and click Go.</li>
<li>Internet Explorer for Windows may suggest an incorrect filename when
you try to save a generated <abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr>.
When saving a generated <abbr title="Portable Document Format">PDF</abbr>, be
sure that the filename ends in ".pdf", for example
"schema.pdf". Browsers on other operating systems, and other

if it already exists during the import. It does NOT drop the table after
your export, it only affects the import file.</li>
<li>"If Not Exists" will only create the table if it doesn't exist.
Otherwise, you may get an error if the table name exists but has a
different structure.</li>
<li>"Add AUTO_INCREMENT value" ensures that AUTO_INCREMENT value
(if any) will be included in backup.</li>

<h4 id="faq6_13">
<a href="#faq6_13">6.13 I would like to create a database with a dot

<p> This is a bad idea, because in MySQL the syntax "database.table"
is the normal way to reference a database and table name. Worse, MySQL
will usually let you create a database with a dot, but then you cannot
work with it, nor delete it.</p>
<h4 id="faqsqlvalidator">
<a href="#faqsqlvalidator">6.14 How do I set up the
<abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr> Validator?</a></h4>
<p> To use it, you need a very recent version of PHP, 4.3.0 recommended, with
<abbr title="Extensible Markup Language">XML</abbr>,
<abbr title="Perl Compatible Regular Expressions">PCRE</abbr> and
<abbr title="PHP Extension and Application Repository">PEAR</abbr> support.
On your system command line, run <tt>"pear install Net_Socket Net_URL
HTTP_Request Mail_Mime Net_DIME SOAP"</tt> to get the necessary
<abbr title="PHP Extension and Application Repository">PEAR</abbr> modules
for usage.<br />
On a more recent pear version, I had problems with the state of Net_DIME
being beta, so this single command
<tt>"pear -d preferred_state=beta install -a SOAP"</tt> installed all the
needed modules.<br />
If you use the Validator, you should be aware that any
<abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr> statement you
submit will be stored anonymously (database/table/column names,
strings, numbers replaced with generic values). The Mimer
<abbr title="structured query language">SQL</abbr>

<a href="#faq6_15">6.15 I want to add a BLOB field and put an index on
it, but MySQL says "BLOB column '...' used in key specification without

<p> The right way to do this, is to create the field without any indexes,
then display the table structure and use the "Create an index"
dialog. On this page, you will be able to choose your BLOB field, and
set a size to the index, which is the condition to create an index on
a BLOB field.</p>
<h4 id="faq6_16">
<a href="#faq6_16">6.16 How can I simply move in page with plenty

with many editing fields (table structure changes, row editing, etc.)
(must be enabled in configuration - see.
<a href="#CtrlArrowsMoving" class="configrule">$cfg['CtrlArrowsMoving']</a>).
You can also have a look at the directive

<h4 id="faq6_17">
<a href="#faq6_17">6.17 Transformations: I can't enter my own mimetype!
WTF is this feature then useful for?</a></h4>
<p> Slow down :). Defining mimetypes is of no use, if you can't put transformations
on them. Otherwise you could just put a comment on the field. Because entering
your own mimetype will cause serious syntax checking issues and validation,
this introduces a high-risk false-user-input situation. Instead you have to
initialize mimetypes using functions or empty mimetype definitions.<br />
Plus, you have a whole overview of available mimetypes. Who knows all those
mimetypes by heart so he/she can enter it at will?</p>
<h4 id="faqbookmark">
<a href="#faqbookmark">6.18 Bookmarks: Where can I store bookmarks? Why
can't I see any bookmarks below the query box? What is this variable for?
</a></h4>
<p> Any query you have executed can be stored as a bookmark on the page where the
results are displayed. You will find a button labeled 'Bookmark this query'
just at the end of the page.<br />
As soon as you have stored a bookmark, it is related to the database you run
the query on. You can now access a bookmark dropdown on each page, the query
box appears on for that database.<br /><br />
Since phpMyAdmin 2.5.0 you are also able to store variables for the bookmarks.
Just use the string <b>/*[VARIABLE]*/</b> anywhere in your query. Everything
which is put into the <i>value</i> input box on the query box page will
replace the string "/*[VARIABLE]*/" in your stored query. Just be
aware of that you HAVE to create a valid query, otherwise your query won't be
even able to be stored in the database.<br />
Also remember, that everything else inside the <b>/*[VARIABLE]*/</b> string
for your query will remain the way it is, but will be stripped of the /**/
chars. So you can use:<br /><br />
<code>/*, [VARIABLE] AS myname */</code><br /><br />
which will be expanded to<br /><br />
<code>, VARIABLE as myname</code><br /><br />
in your query, where VARIABLE is the string you entered in the input box. If
an empty string is provided, no replacements are made.<br /><br />
A more complex example. Say you have stored this query:<br /><br />
<code>SELECT Name, Address FROM addresses WHERE 1 /* AND Name LIKE '%[VARIABLE]%' */</code>
<br /><br />
Say, you now enter "phpMyAdmin" as the variable for the stored query,
the full query will be:<br /><br />
<code>SELECT Name, Address FROM addresses WHERE 1 AND Name LIKE '%phpMyAdmin%'</code>
<br /><br />
You can use multiple occurrences of <b>/*[VARIABLE]*/</b> in a single query.<br />
<b>NOTE THE ABSENCE OF SPACES</b> inside the "/**/" construct. Any
spaces inserted there
will be later also inserted as spaces in your query and may lead to unexpected
results especially when
using the variable expansion inside of a "LIKE ''" expression.<br />
Your initial query which is going to be stored as a bookmark has to yield at
least one result row so
you can store the bookmark. You may have that to work around using well
positioned "/**/" comments.</p>

<a href="#faq6_21">6.21 In edit/insert mode, how can I see a list of

<p> You have to setup appropriate links between the tables, and also
setup the "display field" in the foreign table. See
<a href="#faq6_6"><abbr title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</abbr>
6.6</a> for an example. Then, if there are 100 values or less in the
foreign table, a drop-down list of values will be available.
You will see two lists of values, the first list containing the key
and the display field, the second list containing the display field
and the key. The reason for this is to be able to type the first
letter of either the key or the display field.<br /><br />
For 100 values or more, a distinct window will appear, to browse foreign
key values and choose one. To change the default limit of 100, see

<p> First, for general information about BLOB streaming on MySQL, visit <a href="http://blobstreaming.org">blobstreaming.org</a>. We currently support streaming if you are running MySQL 5.1 with the PBXT and PBMS storage engines.</p>
<ol>
<li>In <tt>config.inc.php</tt> your host should be defined with a FQDN (fully qualified domain name) instead of something like "localhost".</li>
<li>A current limitation is that your first login via phpMyAdmin to a freshly-started server must be done with an account that has the SUPER privilege.</li>
<li>On your target database, go to Operations and in the "BLOB Repository" section, click "Enable". This creates the PBMS system tables inside your database.</li>
<li>Ensure that your target table is under the PBXT storage engine and has a LONGBLOB column.</li>
<li>When you insert or update a row in this table, put a checkmark on the "Upload to BLOB repository" optional choice; otherwise, the upload will be done directly in your column instead of the repository.</li>
<li>Finally when you browse your table, you'll see in your column a link to stream your data, for example "View image". A header containing the correct MIME-type will be sent to your browser; this MIME-type was stored at upload time but in case it's incorrect, it's possible to edit it by clicking on the displayed MIME-type.</li>

characters, on the sourceforge.net translation tracker.<br />
It would be a good idea to subscribe to the phpmyadmin-translators mailing
list, because this is where we ask for translations of new messages.</p>
<h4 id="faq7_3">
<a href="#faq7_3">7.3 I would like to help out with the development of
phpMyAdmin. How should I proceed?</a></h4>
<p> The following method is preferred for new developers:</p>
<ol><li>fetch the current SVN tree over anonymous SVN:<br />
<tt>svn co https://phpmyadmin.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/phpmyadmin/trunk/phpMyAdmin</tt><br />
</li>
<li>add your stuff</li>
<li>generate patch with your changes:
<tt>svn diff</tt><br />
</li>
<li>put the patch inside the <a
href="https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=23067&atid=377410">patch
tracker of the phpMyAdmin project</a>.
</li>
</ol>
<p> Write access to the SVN tree is granted only to experienced developers who
have already contributed something useful to phpMyAdmin.<br />
Also, have a look at the <a href="#developers">Developers section</a>.</p>
<h3 id="faqsecurity">Security</h3>
<h4 id="faq8_1">
<a href="#faq8_1">8.1 Where can I get information about the security alerts issued for phpMyAdmin?</a></h4>
<p> Please refer to
<a href="http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/security.php">http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/security.php</a>
</p>
<h4 id="faq8_2">
<a href="#faq8_2">8.2 How can I protect phpMyAdmin against brute force attacks?</a></h4>
<p> If you use Apache web server, phpMyAdmin exports information about
authentication to Apache environment and it can be used in Apache logs.
Currently there are two variables available:
</p>
<dl>
<dt><code>userID</code></dt>
<dd>User name of currently active user (he does not have to be logged
in).</dd>
<dt><code>userStatus</code></dt>
<dd>Status of currently active user, one of <code>ok</code> (user is
logged in), <code>mysql-denied</code> (MySQL denied user login),
<code>allow-denied</code> (user denied by allow/deny rules),
<code>root-denied</code> (root is denied in configuration),
<code>empty-denied</code> (empty password is denied).</dd>
</dl>
<p>
<code>LogFormat</code> directive for Apache can look like following:
</p>
<pre>
LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \
\"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %{userID}n %{userStatus}n" pma_combined
</pre>
<p>
You can then use any log analyzing tools to detect possible break in
attempts.
</p>
<!-- DEVELOPERS -->
<h2 id="developers">Developers Information</h2>
<p> phpMyAdmin is Open Source, so you're invited to contribute to it. Many
great features have been written by other people and you too can help to
make phpMyAdmin a useful tool.</p>
<p> If you're planning to contribute source, please read the following
information:</p>
<ul><li>All files include <i>libraries/header.inc.php</i> (layout),.
<i>libraries/common.lib.php</i> (common functions) and
<i>config.inc.php</i>.<br />
Only configuration data should go in <i>config.inc.php</i>. Please keep
it free from other code.<br />
Commonly used functions should be added to
<i>libraries/common.lib.php</i> and more specific ones may be added
within a library stored into the <i>libraries</i> sub-directory.</li>
<li>Obviously, you're free to use whatever coding style you want. But
please try to keep your code as simple as possible: beginners are
using phpMyAdmin as an example application.<br />
As far as possible, we want the scripts to be XHTML1.0 and CSS2
compliant on one hand, they fit the
<a href="http://pear.php.net/">
<abbr title="PHP Extension and Application Repository">PEAR</abbr>
coding standards</a>
on the other hand. Please pay attention to this.</li>
<li>Please try to keep up the file-naming conventions. Table-related stuff
goes to <i>tbl_*.php</i>, db-related code to <i>db_*.php</i>,
server-related tools to <i>server_*.php</i> and so on.</li>
<li>Please don't put message strings in your code, instead add the string
(at least) to <i>english-utf-8.inc.php</i> and print() it out.</li>
<li>If you want to be really helpful, write an entry for the ChangeLog.</li>
<li id="developersdbg">
The DBG extension (<a href="http://dd.cron.ru/dbg/">PHP
Debugger DBG</a>) is now supported by phpMyAdmin for developers to
better debug and profile their code.<br />
Please see the
<a href="#cfg_DBG" class="configrule">$cfg['DBG']*</a> configuration
options for more information.<br />
This is in memoriam of the Space Shuttle Columbia (STS-107) which was
lost during its re-entry into Earth's atmosphere and in memory of the
brave men and women who gave their lives for the people of Earth.</li>

Original Credits of Version 2.1.0
---------------------------------
This work is based on Peter Kuppelwieser's MySQL-Webadmin. It was his idea
to create a web-based interface to MySQL using PHP3. Although I have not
used any of his source-code, there are some concepts I've borrowed from
him. phpMyAdmin was created because Peter told me he wasn't going to
further develop his (great) tool.
Thanks go to
- Amalesh Kempf <ak-lsml_at_living-source.com> who contributed the
code for the check when dropping a table or database. He also suggested
that you should be able to specify the primary key on tbl_create.php3. To
version 1.1.1 he contributed the ldi_*.php3-set (Import text-files) as
well as a bug-report. Plus many smaller improvements.
- Jan Legenhausen <jan_at_nrw.net>: He made many of the changes that
were introduced in 1.3.0 (including quite significant ones like the
authentication). For 1.4.1 he enhanced the table-dump feature. Plus
bug-fixes and help.
- Marc Delisle <DelislMa_at_CollegeSherbrooke.qc.ca> made phpMyAdmin
language-independent by outsourcing the strings to a separate file. He
also contributed the French translation.
- Alexandr Bravo <abravo_at_hq.admiral.ru> who contributed
tbl_select.php3, a feature to display only some fields from a table.
- Chris Jackson <chrisj_at_ctel.net> added support for MySQL
functions in tbl_change.php3. He also added the
"Query by Example" feature in 2.0.
- Dave Walton <walton_at_nordicdms.com> added support for multiple
servers and is a regular contributor for bug-fixes.
- Gabriel Ash <ga244_at_is8.nyu.edu> contributed the random access
features for 2.0.6.
The following people have contributed minor changes, enhancements, bugfixes
or support for a new language:
Jim Kraai, Jordi Bruguera, Miquel Obrador, Geert Lund, Thomas Kleemann,
Alexander Leidinger, Kiko Albiol, Daniel C. Chao, Pavel Piankov,
Sascha Kettler, Joe Pruett, Renato Lins, Mark Kronsbein, Jannis Hermanns,
G. Wieggers.
And thanks to everyone else who sent me email with suggestions, bug-reports
and or just some feedback.
