Install phpMyAdmin Yum Error Forbidden Access

[aeboi80]

I am running centos 5.5 and just tried to install phpMyAdmin using yum.

yum install phpmyadmin

It installed successfully however now when I go to mydomain.com/phpmyadmin I get a Forbidden error. You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin on this server.

I don't see a sub folder within /var/www/html called phpMyAdmin its seems its in /usr/share/phpMyAdmin

I believe the permissions are set correctly on /usr/share/phpMyAdmin: drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 May 5 15:47 phpMyAdmin


Should I have installed this using a different method?

Did you restart apache after installing phpMyAdmint?
I don't use Fedora but there are numerous tutorials for installing a Lamp server w/or without phpMyadmin. Here's one:

Installing Apache2 With PHP5 And MySQL Support On Fedora 11 (LAMP) | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

The above link states Fedora 11 but the sites I checked for Fedora 14 were the same as far as I could tell. If this sites info doesn't work, googling will put lots of sites. You are using Fedora??

The tutorial did point me in the right direction. The section within it witch stated to comment out:

#<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/>
# order deny,allow
# deny from all
# allow from 127.0.0.1
# allow from ::1
#</Directory>


I did before, but for some reason when I went back into the phpmyadmin.conf file it listed the part I commented out AND it had replaced itself with the same text uncommented out. Very odd that there were 2 entries in there...at any rate its working now. Thanks!
