How to install phpmyadmin on Debian 6?

1. Install phpmyadmin by apt-get.
$apt-get install phpmyadmin

2. Search for the phpmyadmin configuration directory and look for apache.conf
#Use "updatedb" to update the slocate database. We need to use "locate" to search for the file.
$updatedb
#Search for "apache.conf"
$locate apache.conf
/etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf

3. Edit the file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and include the phpmyadmin apache.conf.
$nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
# add the line below at the end of the file and save it.
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf

4. Restart Apache2
$/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

5. Go to http://yourdomain/phpmyadmin to see if it works.

    Hello,

    This is good solution, but we can do even better, i have something like this in mind :

    echo -e "deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all \ndeb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all" >> /etc/apt/sources.list; apt-get update && apt-get install phpmyadmin; echo "Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf" >> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf; service pache2 restart

    This will add new repository with last phpmyadmin version(3.3.7), then system run update, then we run phpmyadmin install, command will edit apache2 config file, apache2 restart and we're done.

    Cool, no ;)Have a nice life.

    Thanks Guys!

    @Nenad = you can also enter the command "/etc/init.d/apache2 restart" to replace "service apache2 restart"
