To complete installation, you must 1. Update MySQL's grant tables and the pmadb database: mysql -u root -p < /usr/share/webapps/phpmyadmin/VERSION/sqlscripts/mysql/VERSION_create.sql If you are upgrading from an earlier version and are using phpMyAdmin's features for master/foreign tables be sure to read http://${VHOST_HOSTNAME}${VHOST_APPDIR}/Documentation.html#col_com You will need to perform the ALTER TABLE step yourself. Finally, point your browser to http://${VHOST_HOSTNAME}/${VHOST_APPDIR} Note that you may need to edit the config file: ${MY_INSTALLDIR}/config.inc.php
