How to update phpmyadmin

[mikejs]

I see there is a newer version of phpmyadmin I have tried to run update but it stays the same ? so how can we update phpmyadmin or is it something you guys do when you release an update ?

I have been using a phpmyadmin module that updates it automatically.
Once in a while you need to fix some config settings as they change them (It will show a notice box of the changes when logged into phpMyAdmin.)

First, make a backup of your /etc/sentora/etc/apps/phpmyadmin/ AND /etc/sentora/panel/modules/phpmyadmin/ just in case things go wrong!


Next, add my repo if you do not already have it:

Code:

zppy repo add zppy-repo.mach-hosting.com

Update the package list:

Code:

zppy update
zppy remove phpmyadmin
zppy install phpmyadmin

This updated module should update your phpmyadmin module to latest version at midnight.
Has been working flawlessly for me on Windows and I have made some tweaks to remove unneeded files and folders to help secure it.

  It relies on the daemon run. Be patient. It will up date it.

If it doesn't, make sure that your cron service is running.

I want to install the previous version back. How?
I think this autoupdater is constantly removing all of the phpmyadmin files located at /etc/sentora/panel/etc/apps/phpmyadmin/ leaving only the conf file there and strips it from being a symbolic link

p.s. I manually updated phpmyadmin to the latest version.
p.s.s. I tried running

Code:

php /etc/sentora/panel/modules/phpmyadmin/hooks/OnDaemonDay.hook.php

and I'm getting this:

PHP Fatal error: Class 'fs_filehandler' not found in /etc/sentora/panel/modules/phpmyadmin/hooks/OnDaemonDay.hook.php on line 83

I am planning on eventually updating the auto-update phpmyadmin module to include a backup. When? No idea   What I have been doing lately is make a backup of the phpmyadmin folder monthly so if there is any error I have a copy

I want to rollback, how?
Again, the content of this folder is getting removed every day
/etc/sentora/panel/etc/apps/phpmyadmin/

I think phpmyadmin changed their download system/repository. If you want to use the original phpmyadmin module you will need to get the files from our github and replace them inside the sentora/modules/phpmyadmin folder.

yeah, i already did that, but didnt reply yet because i wanted to confirm if the rollback fixed the problem or not, but i can now say that it's fixed because probably the daily daemon the new module has is gone which usually runs at around 18:15 for me.

removed phpmyadmin module
zppy remove phpmyadmin

took the original phpmyadmin module that is applied by sentora install (located at github)
placed it in the module folder.
changed the permissions of the folder and its content to 777

found the .sql sentora install uses, so i can determine the missing mysql entries.

and... done.
