Question

I have a lan network with 2 computer and installed wamp on computer 1.

from users tab in root of phpmyadmin page I created a user.
I filled username field with 'root' and host field with my computer 2 IP address and left password field with "no password" and checked all Global privileges for my user.
now I connect to wamp on computer 1 from computer 2 and click on phpmyadmin link.
but It give me this error:
FORBIDDEN
you don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin/ on this server
what I must do now for solving this problem?

Answer 1

change below line in C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf, you can directly open this file by
<Directory "C:/xampp/phpMyAdmin">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride all
Require all granted
ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</Directory>

Answer 2

That error message has more to do with Apache blocking access, than with phpMyAdmin, or the MySQL user account created.
Your issue is with Apache's configuration, or more specifically your WAMP's configuration of the /phpmyadmin URL.
Find the configuration file where the \phpmyadmin URL Alias is set up. It possibly will have these lines in it -
<Location /phpmyadmin>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 127.0.0.1
</Location>
Add another allow from IP.Address line in it to match the IP.Address of your other LAN system. Restart Apache.
If phpMyAdmin is not set up via an Alias (it is under WampDeveloper, not sure about other WAMPs like Xampp or WampServer), but is rather just a dump of its files in a DocumentRoot (website's webroot) sub-folder, check the .htaccess file there.
I filled username field with 'root' and host field with my computer 2 IP address and left password field with "no password" and checked all Global privileges for my user.
In this case, the host field will always be in relation to the location of MySQL, not to the system phpMyAdmin is being accessed from... If you are accessing MySQL via phpMyAdmin, the host field should always be - localhost. As phpMyAdmin is on the same system MySQL is. The only time you'd use another domain-name, host-name, or IP for host: is when you are accessing MySQL directly from another system. By directly I mean, not via a script or URL, but via some type of a client (which is almost always a binary/executable).

Answer 3

go to PHPMYADMIN.conf or search on it from wamp or wamp64
adjust on it as the following:
change
Require local
to be
Require all granted
And add your another client IP address after this line
Allow from localhost ::1 127.0.0.1
add this
Allow from CLIENTIPADDRESS
Restart Wamp or Wamp64

Answer 4

go to C:\wamp\alias\phpmyAdmin.conf
open phpmyadmin.conf in notepad
overwrite the below given code in it
<Directory "c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin3.3.9/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride all
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
change here is allow from all only..

Answer 5

First just check you have installed php, mysql and apache correctly.
Now if are you able to access phpmyadmin from your local host then above things are installed correctly. If you want to access phpmyadmin from another host, make the entry of 2nd host in following config file
/etc/httpd/config.d/phpmyadmin.conf
<Location /phpmyadmin>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 127.0.0.1 <2nd host IP address>
</Location>
Then save you httpd settings and stop
service httpd restart
And now you are able to access phpmyadmin from another host
