Hi,
The issue is neither Hestia nor phpMyAdmin, it’s because Sury’s PHP packages introduced systemd hardening that makes /usr/share/phpmyadmin/tmp/ non-writable.
To fix it now:
mkdir -p "/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp"
chown -R hestiamail:www-data "/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp"
echo "<?php" > "/etc/phpmyadmin/conf.d/02-tempdir.php"
echo "\$cfg['TempDir'] = '/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp';" >> "/etc/phpmyadmin/conf.d/02-tempdir.php"
A PR has already been merged to fix it in the next release.
