Forbidden :You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin on this server

Question

Hi I have installed phpmyadmin on my centos machine and when I try to hit `phpmyadmin` through my browser I get this error : ``` Forbidden You don't have permission to access `phpmyadmin` on this server. ``` My `phpmyadmin.conf` file has following content: ``` # phpMyAdmin - Web based MySQL browser written in php # # Allows only localhost by default # # But allowing phpMyAdmin to anyone other than localhost should be considered # dangerous unless properly secured by SSL Alias /phpMyAdmin /usr/share/phpMyAdmin Alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpMyAdmin # Apache 2.4 Require ip 127.0.0.1 Require ip ::1 # Apache 2.2 Order Deny,Allow Deny from All Allow from 127.0.0.1 Allow from ::1 # Apache 2.4 Require ip 127.0.0.1 Require ip ::1

Accepted Answer

You need to follow the following steps:

Find line that read follows

```
Require ip 127.0.0.1
```

Replace with your workstation IP address:

```
Require ip 10.1.3.53
```

Again find the following line:

```
Allow from 127.0.0.1
```

Replace as follows:

```
Allow from 10.1.3.53
```

Also find `deny from all` and comment it in the entire file.

Save and close the file.`Restart Apache httpd server`:

```
# service httpd restart
```

Edit: Since this is the selected answer and gets best visibility ... please also make sure that PHP is installed, otherwise you get same `Forbidden` error.
