Sounds like you have something strange[tm] in /etc/phpMyAdmin/ ...
Maybe
To find out if it is something in your config or a general problem, can you please - revert the change in the apache config
done
- restart apache
done, now it doesn't work as expected
- rename /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php to "config.inc.php_MY"
done, now it works...
- reinstall phpMyAdmin (might need --force if you try to install the same version again) - afterwards, you should have a /etc/phpMyAdmin /config.inc.php again
done, but can't reinstall 3.4.3.1-15.1 because in the repositories now the existing version is 3.4.3.1-13.1. the --force option was needed to downgrade.
- check if phpMyAdmin works with the fresh config.inc.php
Yes it does!
- if yes: run "diff -u config.inc.php config.inc.php_MY" and paste or upload the result to bugzilla (edit out any passwords if needed)

As user do rpm -qa | grep phpMyAdmin and post the version. All my system have failed while having the 3.4.3.1-15.1 (fifteen) version installed. Then this version was downgraded to the 3.4.3.1-13.1 and the weird behavior desapeared. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

And ther e is no change in rev hist. There was update from 3.4.2 to 3.4.3.1 and then no changes. And this is last build 3.4.3.1-13.1. And I am installing and testing anytime I do updates. I'm not saying I am perfect, but I did not investigate problems with this build. https://build.opensuse.org/package/rdiff?commit=11&linkrev=base&package=phpMyAdmin&project=server%3Aphp%3Aapplications -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

However my system (just before 2011-07-13) has the missing 15.1 version. If you do a search on google (I just do it) with "phpMyAdmin 3.4.3.1-15.1" you will be surprised to see one repository that once contained this package. ¿Can the repositories be compromised? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
