Quick question guys,

I am trying to add a user to MySQL using PHPMyAdmin.

I created the database. Created the user and pointed to the host, lets say www.test.com. I also tried using a static IP address. But when ever the user goes to www.test.com/phpmyadmin he can not login for the life of him.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

What type of authentication is phpMyAdmin set up to use? If using a .htaccess file, is the file set up correctly? (there was a recent "bug" introduced with an Apache upgrade for the 550 - requires some jiggling in the httpd.conf file to sort it all out).

Is there a /phpmyadmin directory for www.test.com? (i.e., does /home/sites/www.test.com/web/phpmyadmin/ exist?)

What's the login problem?

There is not a phpmyadmin directory. But you can still go to www.test.com/phpmyadmin and get the login. Just after typing in the user name and password it fails.

I am not sure what type of access it set to use. I had a company that I purchased the RAQ from set it up.

Thanks for any and all help!

The reason I asked is that the verification routine is different if it's supposed to allow anyone with a valid account on the RaQ to have access vs. using a .htaccess file with specific username/password combinations in the directory where phpMyAdmin is actually located.

Without knowing which authentication scheme you're using, it's hard to diagnose what the problem may be.
