Hello developers,
first of all, I want to excuse my English. I'm from Germany and English is not my first language.
I'm running a Minecraft-Server with MySQL. It's already configured and I'm using it. Now I want to install phpmyadmin on my server, but I don't know if the installation will delete my databases.
And that's my question. Will the installation delete my databases in MySQL?
Best regards, SeeZzer
Hi SeeZzer,
Guten Tag. Your English is fine, I was perfectly able to understand you.
Installing phpMyAdmin doesn't do anything to your existing databases (unless you install with a package manager like Debian/Ubuntu's apt tools, which can install an extra database for you to use the phpMyAdmin advanced features). If you use a pre-packaged kit like XAMPP or WAMP, they usually install the complete stack of applications and will install their own MySQL server, which probably won't remove yours but would cause conflict. So don't use XAMPP or WAMP at this point for that reason. It's never a bad idea to do a database backup before performing new tasks like installing new software, but there's nothing about the phpMyAdmin installation that should remove any existing databases.
Cheers, Isaac
