phpMyAdmin and Laragon

Question

How do Laragon and phpMyAdmin work with one another? I've downloaded phpMyAdmin and extracted it to laragon\etc\apps, but whenever I click on the Database button of Laragon, I get sent to something called Adminer instead of phpMySQL. I have tried deleting Adminer, but that doesn't work. Please help. Thanks!

It worked for me. I just extracted phpMyAdmin files directly inside a folder {LARAGON_DIR}\etc\apps\phpMyAdmin. Now the Database icons opens phpMyAdmin, instead of Adminer. I followed the steps on Laragon forum. – Roxieroxine

Personally, I prefer Adminer to PhpMyAdmin, but maybe that's just me. I find the PhpMyAdmin interface clunky. – Analemma

Answer 1

so you are askin how to access phpmyadmin right? after install (placing the phpmyadmin to install directory c:/laragon/etc/apps)

dont forget to reload apache and start mariadb(or mysql if you prefer mysql) through laragon

and then just access it as usual, type on your browser url address bar localhost/phpmyadmin

Answer 2

well , hi Hossein : first download the phpmyadmin from here : https://www.phpmyadmin.net/downloads/

then extract the downloaded (rar,zip) to :

{INSTILLATION_PATH }\laragon\etc\apps

rename the folder to phpmyadmin .

now go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin

and your there :) .

if you want to login to the phpmyadmin you need to search in the phpmyadmin folder for a file called config.sample.inc and duplicate it and rename it to config.inc open the file and search for :

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = false;

and set it to true :

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;

save the file and DONE you can login using username of : root

Answer 5

In fact, there is two possibilities to add phpMyAdmin to Laragon.

First :

Like previous dev said before, it is possible to take the last zip on phpmyadmin website, unzip it and put the extracted folder in laragon/etc/apps. Take care to rename your unzip folder with this exact name : "phpMyAdmin"

Second :

You can simply use Laragon QuickAdd functionnality. But by default it installs the 4.X version of phpMyAdmin. Hopefully, you can configure wich version of phpMyAdmin QuickAdd will use. To do that go to Menu > Tools > QuickAdd > Configuration... and under the line :

# phpMyAdmin
*phpmyadmin=https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.8.5/phpMyAdmin-4.8.5-english.zip

You can add the last link available for phpMyAdmin (you can find it here) :

# phpMyAdmin
*phpmyadmin=https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.8.5/phpMyAdmin-4.8.5-english.zip
phpmyadmin5=https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/5.0.4/phpMyAdmin-5.0.4-all-languages.zip  

And now when you'll go in QuickAdd, you will see that. So you can now install it. When it's done, Laragon open up automatically your default browser with phpmyadmin at this url http://localhost/phpmyadmin

For the french community, I add a video on this subject.
