Some Bugs after Upgrade to 1.1.0

  1. Issue with phpMyAdmin

I’m checking phpMyAdmin at https://[SERVER-FQDN]/phpmyadmin. I was able to login as MySQL root user, but then I got those errors at the bottom of the phpMyAdmin page:

The configuration file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret).

The $cfg['TempDir'] (/var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp/) is not accessible. phpMyAdmin is not able to cache templates and will be slow because of this.

First of all I need to mention that the URL https://[SERVER-FQDN] is using hosting nginx template + default apache template + PHP-FPM7.4 template. Now let’s move on to troubleshooting…

I can see in file config.inc.php line 34 there is a file that should be included (/var/lib/phpmyadmin/blowfish_secret.inc.php). This file contains the cfg setting for blowfish_secret (random alphanumeric and special characters). So in theory, it should work.

Then I noticed that if I create an new domain (xxx.yyy using default nginx template + default apache template + default php-fpm template) and then login at the URL https://xxx.yyy/phpmyadmin/index.php , I get no errors there! It still works even if I change web domain to hosting nginx template + default apache template + PHP-FPM7.4 template (as is the https://[SERVER-FQDN]/phpmyadmin).

So I guess this issue is kinda similar to issue #6. Permission issue maybe?
