@yunli You shouldn’t recommend adding read access for others to a file that contains secrets or passwords.

Hestia does this:

chmod 770 /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp
chown -R hestiamail:www-data /usr/share/phpmyadmin/tmp/
chown -R root:hestiamail /etc/phpmyadmin/
chmod 640 /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
chmod 750 /etc/phpmyadmin/conf.d/
