Stackoverflow question about PHP7 and "Cannot log in to the MySQL server"
by Isaac Bennetch 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

There's a report[1] from a user who recently upgraded to PHP7 and is getting the Cannot log in to the MySQL server error message with phpMyAdmin. He's done quite a bit of troubleshooting and I don't see anything obviously wrong with his setup. I'd be delighted if some other developers could look over the question and see if they can find some hint here. Thanks 1 - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33897389/phpmyadmin-cannot-log-in-to-the…

Testing the upcoming 4.5.2
by Marc Delisle 18 Nov '15

18 Nov '15

Hi phpMyAdmin community, Version 4.5.2 is due in one week on Nov 23 [0]. Starting from today, this version is bugfix-frozen and due to the numerous fixes it contains [0], we ask for testers. The idea is to try as many features as possible, looking for regressions compared with 4.5.1. You can directly use the git branch MAINT_4_5_2 or download a zip archive [1]. Thanks!

Hi team, As seen on Stackoverflow[1], there's a bit of a syntax problem when importing from MySQL to MariaDB in that MariaDB doesn't seem to accept \\'' Just checking, this doesn't seem to me like anything we can control nor like anything we should check for, but what do you think? ~Isaac 1 - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33742398/website-migration-phpmyadmin-ex…

Request of informations - Luca Scocchera
by Luca Scocchera 15 Nov '15

15 Nov '15

Dear Lady/Sir, I need of free informations on Your software, because I am absolutely non expert (and not very rich actually) and I did free download (GNU) of this program only for Study better php language, as indicated on a e-book (2015) with exercises. I resume what I would like to know from You : 1. I accepted the licence on line but I read only the first part.Can I have a licence in pdf format? 2. I’m very honest, but I don’t know, actually, international laws on php and similar. Can I use, after training, Your program for commercial use? 3. Can You give me a little general explanation on the system? 4. (Last, but not least) How can insert my first php script in a page; how can I create the first page? The following issues : I will study more only if I will know that it is all legal from my position. Thank’s for attention and sorry for my temporarely ignorance (also in writing You). All this system, like “open source”, is a very important action of Your Society (if I understood well). I’ll wait an answer. Best regards Luca

Thanks, Arush Goyal.

Removing plugins
by Isaac Bennetch 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

As you may recall from the last IRC meeting, I'm working on testing and documentation around issue #6137 [0] by removing some features/plugins/libraries and testing/documenting my success. So far I've had good luck with removing some things (for instance tcpdf), but I've discovered two noteworthy problems. 1) When js/jqplot/ is removed, "Status -> Query statistics" does not fail gracefully, it instead offers to submit a report to the error reporting server. 2) when libraries/gis/ is removed, "Visulize GIS data" does not fail gravefully, instead it gets stuck on saying "Loading..." In comparison, something that degrades very well is the removal of tcpdf; if the pdf library is missing the export dialog simply doesn't show PDF as an export type. So my question is what you think we should do about this -- this is clearly beyond the scope of what is normally expected; it's not normal for a user to remove libraries and code, but in order for this feature request to be improved I think the code should handle this better. Should we spend time on this? 0 - https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/issues/6137
