Many free servers doesn't have a phpMyAdmin. This is a much needed organ to handle of the database, so probably many of you will be need it.

1. Download the phpMyAdmin from here: http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php
2. Unpack it and upload to the FTP server.
3. Looking for config.inc.php and introduce some changes in it.
4. Open file config.inc.php in editor text and search section:

Kod:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']          = 'localhost'; // MySQL hostname or IP address

As you can see the settings for each option is commented. We will be interested in:

Kod:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']          = 'localhost'; // Database host $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user']          = 'root';      // Username of database $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']      = 'pass';          // Password

5. If we type these parameters correctly, we should see this message:

Directive $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] must been set in configuration file!

6. So you must return to configuration file. Looking for $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri'] and type there path to phpMyAdmin ex. http://www.forumadress.com/phpmyadmin
