WampServer

I have just started using WAMP5 version 1.6.6 today because I am taking over a project that a previous employee was working on. I can connect to the server via [localhost]. The problem I am having however is that if I try to go to phpmyadmin i get a 403 Forbidden error. Any ideas what could be causing this?

By default, phpmyadmin and sqlitemanager are blocked from outside, so if you access them either from LAN or global, you will be blocked

hi

what can i do for unblocke phpmyadmin from outside
thanks a lot
quequeprocto

I dont really know how it works with 1.6.6 but this will work with 1.7.x and 2.0 :

Edit the file phpmyadmin.conf which contains infos for the alias of phpmyadmin
(path in wamp 2.0 is : \wamp\alias\phpmyadmin.conf)

And read it carefully:

----phpmyadmin.conf----
Alias /phpmyadmin "D:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin2.11.1/"

# to give access to phpmyadmin from outside
# replace the lines
#
# Order Deny,Allow
# Deny from all
# Allow from 127.0.0.1
#
# by
#
# Order Allow,Deny
# Allow from all
#

<Directory "D:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin2.11.1/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride all
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>
----end of file phpmyadmin.conf----

Do what is written in it. Hope it will works.

If you unlock them, make sure you have proper security or anyone, even a six-year-old kid, can messes up your db server

You can allow another unique ip in the rules an ip of your lan :

if your LAN ips are like 192.168.1.10, 192.168.1.11 .... 192.168.1.x and you want to allow the computer with the ip 192.168.1.34 to access PMA, Just edit the existing file like this :

Edit /alias/phpmyadmin.conf and :
below the line :
Allow from 127.0.0.1
add a new line :
Allow from 192.168.1.34

It worked for me and i think its protected coz only 2 ips can access it (127.0.0.1/localhost and 192.168.1.34/the computer ip you want to give rights)

I Hope i'm right !

Yep, your syntax is right but it's only for your LAN ip; you can replace it w/ web ip, but it's where the problem comes from; since most people have dynamic ip, so today 123.234.345.456 is your friend, but tomorrow it might be someone else
