Configuration
=============
Almost all configurable data is placed in :file:`config.inc.php`. If this file
does not exist, please refer to the :ref:`setup` section to create one. This
file only needs to contain the parameters you want to change from their
corresponding default value in :file:`libraries/config.default.php`.
If a directive is missing from your file, you can just add another line with
the file. This file is for over-writing the defaults; if you wish to use the
default value there's no need to add a line here.
The parameters which relate to design (like colors) are placed in
:file:`themes/themename/layout.inc.php`. You might also want to create
:file:`config.footer.inc.php` and :file:`config.header.inc.php` files to add
your site specific code to be included on start and end of each page.
.. note::
Some distributions (eg. Debian or Ubuntu) store :file:`config.inc.php` in
``/etc/phpmyadmin`` instead of within phpMyAdmin sources.
.. warning::
:term:`Mac` users should note that if you are on a version before
:term:`Mac OS X`, PHP does not seem to
like :term:`Mac` end of lines character (``\r``). So
ensure you choose the option that allows to use the \*nix end of line
character (``\n``) in your text editor before saving a script you have
modified.
Basic settings
--------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Sets here the complete :term:`URL` (with full path) to your phpMyAdmin
installation's directory. E.g.
``http://www.example.net/path_to_your_phpMyAdmin_directory/``. Note also
that the :term:`URL` on most of web servers are case–sensitive. Don’t
forget the trailing slash at the end.
Starting with version 2.3.0, it is advisable to try leaving this blank. In
most cases phpMyAdmin automatically detects the proper setting. Users of
port forwarding will need to set :config:option:`$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri']`
(`more info <https://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/support-requests/795/>`_).
A good test is to browse a table, edit a row and save it. There should be
an error message if phpMyAdmin is having trouble auto–detecting the correct
value. If you get an error that this must be set or if the autodetect code
fails to detect your path, please post a bug report on our bug tracker so
we can improve the code.
.. seealso:: :ref:`faq1_40`
.. config:option:: $cfg['PmaNoRelation_DisableWarning']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Starting with version 2.3.0 phpMyAdmin offers a lot of features to
work with master / foreign – tables (see :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`).
If you tried to set this
up and it does not work for you, have a look on the :guilabel:`Structure` page
of one database where you would like to use it. You will find a link
that will analyze why those features have been disabled.
If you do not want to use those features set this variable to ``true`` to
stop this message from appearing.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SuhosinDisableWarning']
:type: boolean
:default: false
A warning is displayed on the main page if Suhosin is detected.
You can set this parameter to ``true`` to stop this message from appearing.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ServerLibraryDifference_DisableWarning']
:type: boolean
:default: false
A warning is displayed on the main page if there is a difference
between the MySQL library and server version.
You can set this parameter to ``true`` to stop this message from appearing.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ReservedWordDisableWarning']
:type: boolean
:default: false
This warning is displayed on the Structure page of a table if one or more
column names match with words which are MySQL reserved.
If you want to turn off this warning, you can set it to ``true`` and
warning will no longer be displayed.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TranslationWarningThreshold']
:type: integer
:default: 80
Show warning about incomplete translations on certain threshold.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SendErrorReports']
:type: string
:default: ``'ask'``
Sets the default behavior for JavaScript error reporting.
Whenever an error is detected in the JavaScript execution, an error report
may be sent to the phpMyAdmin team if the user agrees.
The default setting of ``'ask'`` will ask the user everytime there is a new
error report. However you can set this parameter to ``'always'`` to send error
reports without asking for confirmation or you can set it to ``'never'`` to
never send error reports.
This directive is available both in the configuration file and in users
preferences. If the person in charge of a multi-user installation prefers
to disable this feature for all users, a value of ``'never'`` should be
set, and the :config:option:`$cfg['UserprefsDisallow']` directive should
contain ``'SendErrorReports'`` in one of its array values.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AllowThirdPartyFraming']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Setting this to ``true`` allows phpMyAdmin to be included inside a frame,
and is a potential security hole allowing cross-frame scripting attacks or
clickjacking.
Server connection settings
--------------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers']
:type: array
:default: one server array with settings listed bellow
Since version 1.4.2, phpMyAdmin supports the administration of multiple
MySQL servers. Therefore, a :config:option:`$cfg['Servers']`-array has been
added which contains the login information for the different servers. The
first :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']` contains the hostname of
the first server, the second :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']`
the hostname of the second server, etc. In
:file:`libraries/config.default.php`, there is only one section for server
definition, however you can put as many as you need in
:file:`config.inc.php`, copy that block or needed parts (you don't have to
define all settings, just those you need to change).
.. note::
The :config:option:`$cfg['Servers']` array starts with
$cfg['Servers'][1]. Do not use $cfg['Servers'][0]. If you want more
than one server, just copy following section (including $i
incrementation) serveral times. There is no need to define full server
array, just define values you need to change.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']
:type: string
:default: ``'localhost'``
The hostname or :term:`IP` address of your $i-th MySQL-server. E.g.
``localhost``.
Possible values are:
* hostname, e.g., ``'localhost'`` or ``'mydb.example.org'``
* IP address, e.g., ``'127.0.0.1'`` or ``'192.168.10.1'``
* dot - ``'.'``, i.e., use named pipes on windows systems
* empty - ``''``, disables this server
.. note::
phpMyAdmin supports connecting to MySQL servers reachable via IPv6 only.
To connect to an IPv6 MySQL server, enter its IPv6 address in this field.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['port']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The port-number of your $i-th MySQL-server. Default is 3306 (leave
blank).
.. note::
If you use ``localhost`` as the hostname, MySQL ignores this port number
and connects with the socket, so if you want to connect to a port
different from the default port, use ``127.0.0.1`` or the real hostname
in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The path to the socket to use. Leave blank for default. To determine
the correct socket, check your MySQL configuration or, using the
:command:`mysql` command–line client, issue the ``status`` command. Among the
resulting information displayed will be the socket used.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Whether to enable SSL for the connection between phpMyAdmin and the MySQL server.
When using the ``'mysql'`` extension,
none of the remaining ``'ssl...'`` configuration options apply.
We strongly recommend the ``'mysqli'`` extension when using this option.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key']
:type: string
:default: NULL
Path to the key file when using SSL for connecting to the MySQL server.
For example:
.. code-block:: php
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_key'] = '/etc/mysql/server-key.pem';
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_cert']
:type: string
:default: NULL
Path to the cert file when using SSL for connecting to the MySQL server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca']
:type: string
:default: NULL
Path to the CA file when using SSL for connecting to the MySQL server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ca_path']
:type: string
:default: NULL
Directory containing trusted SSL CA certificates in PEM format.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_ciphers']
:type: string
:default: NULL
List of allowable ciphers for SSL connections to the MySQL server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type']
:type: string
:default: ``'tcp'``
What type connection to use with the MySQL server. Your options are
``'socket'`` and ``'tcp'``. It defaults to tcp as that is nearly guaranteed
to be available on all MySQL servers, while sockets are not supported on
some platforms. To use the socket mode, your MySQL server must be on the
same machine as the Web server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['compress']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Whether to use a compressed protocol for the MySQL server connection
or not (experimental).
.. _controlhost:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlhost']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Permits to use an alternate host to hold the configuration storage
data.
.. _controlport:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlport']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Permits to use an alternate port to connect to the host that
holds the configuration storage.
.. _controluser:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
This special account is used for 2 distinct purposes: to make possible all
relational features (see :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`).
.. versionchanged:: 2.2.5
those were called ``stduser`` and ``stdpass``
.. seealso:: :ref:`setup`, :ref:`authentication_modes`, :ref:`linked-tables`
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']
:type: string
:default: ``'cookie'``
Whether config or cookie or :term:`HTTP` or signon authentication should be
used for this server.
* 'config' authentication (``$auth_type = 'config'``) is the plain old
way: username and password are stored in :file:`config.inc.php`.
* 'cookie' authentication mode (``$auth_type = 'cookie'``) as
introduced in 2.2.3 allows you to log in as any valid MySQL user with
the help of cookies. Username and password are stored in cookies
during the session and password is deleted when it ends. This can also
allow you to log in in arbitrary server if :config:option:`$cfg['AllowArbitraryServer']` enabled.
* 'http' authentication (was
called 'advanced' in previous versions and can be written also as
'http') (``$auth_type = 'http';'``) as introduced in 1.3.0 allows you to log in as any
valid MySQL user via HTTP-Auth.
* 'signon' authentication mode (``$auth_type = 'signon'``) as
introduced in 2.10.0 allows you to log in from prepared PHP session
data or using supplied PHP script. This is useful for implementing
single signon from another application. Sample way how to seed session
is in signon example: :file:`examples/signon.php`. There is also
alternative example using OpenID - :file:`examples/openid.php` and example
for scripts based solution - :file:`examples/signon-script.php`. You need
to configure :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonSession']` or
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonScript']` and
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonURL']` to use this authentication
method.
.. seealso:: :ref:`authentication_modes`
.. _servers_auth_http_realm:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_http_realm']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
When using auth\_type = ``http``, this field allows to define a custom
:term:`HTTP` Basic Auth Realm which will be displayed to the user. If not
explicitly specified in your configuration, a string combined of
"phpMyAdmin " and either :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose']` or
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host']` will be used.
.. _servers_auth_swekey_config:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_swekey_config']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The name of the file containing :ref:`swekey` ids and login names for hardware
authentication. Leave empty to deactivate this feature.
.. _servers_user:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['user']
:type: string
:default: ``'root'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['password']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
When using :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type']` set to
'config', this is the user/password-pair which phpMyAdmin will use to
connect to the MySQL server. This user/password pair is not needed when
:term:`HTTP` or cookie authentication is used
and should be empty.
.. _servers_nopassword:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['nopassword']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Allow attempt to log in without password when a login with password
fails. This can be used together with http authentication, when
authentication is done some other way and phpMyAdmin gets user name
from auth and uses empty password for connecting to MySQL. Password
login is still tried first, but as fallback, no password method is
tried.
.. _servers_only_db:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db']
:type: string or array
:default: ``''``
If set to a (an array of) database name(s), only this (these)
database(s) will be shown to the user. Since phpMyAdmin 2.2.1,
this/these database(s) name(s) may contain MySQL wildcards characters
("\_" and "%"): if you want to use literal instances of these
characters, escape them (I.E. use ``'my\_db'`` and not ``'my_db'``).
This setting is an efficient way to lower the server load since the
latter does not need to send MySQL requests to build the available
database list. But **it does not replace the privileges rules of the
MySQL database server**. If set, it just means only these databases
will be displayed but **not that all other databases can't be used.**
An example of using more that one database:
.. code-block:: php
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['only_db'] = array('db1', 'db2');
.. versionchanged:: 4.0.0
Previous versions permitted to specify the display order of
the database names via this directive.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Regular expression for hiding some databases from unprivileged users.
This only hides them from listing, but a user is still able to access
them (using, for example, the SQL query area). To limit access, use
the MySQL privilege system. For example, to hide all databases
starting with the letter "a", use
.. code-block:: php
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db'] = '^a';
and to hide both "db1" and "db2" use
.. code-block:: php
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['hide_db'] = '^(db1|db2)$';
More information on regular expressions can be found in the `PCRE
pattern syntax
<http://php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.syntax.php>`_ portion
of the PHP reference manual.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Only useful when using phpMyAdmin with multiple server entries. If
set, this string will be displayed instead of the hostname in the
pull-down menu on the main page. This can be useful if you want to
show only certain databases on your system, for example. For HTTP
auth, all non-US-ASCII characters will be stripped.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The name of the database containing the phpMyAdmin configuration
storage.
See the :ref:`linked-tables` section in this document to see the benefits of
this feature, and for a quick way of creating this database and the needed
tables.
If you are the only user of this phpMyAdmin installation, you can use your
current database to store those special tables; in this case, just put your
current database name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`. For a
multi-user installation, set this parameter to the name of your central
database containing the phpMyAdmin configuration storage.
.. _bookmark:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['bookmarktable']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 2.2.0 phpMyAdmin allows users to bookmark queries. This
can be useful for queries you often run. To allow the usage of this
functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* enter the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['bookmarktable']`
.. _relation:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['relation']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 2.2.4 you can describe, in a special 'relation' table,
which column is a key in another table (a foreign key). phpMyAdmin
currently uses this to:
* make clickable, when you browse the master table, the data values that
point to the foreign table;
* display in an optional tool-tip the "display column" when browsing the
master table, if you move the mouse to a column containing a foreign
key (use also the 'table\_info' table); (see :ref:`faqdisplay`)
* in edit/insert mode, display a drop-down list of possible foreign keys
(key value and "display column" are shown) (see :ref:`faq6_21`)
* display links on the table properties page, to check referential
integrity (display missing foreign keys) for each described key;
* in query-by-example, create automatic joins (see :ref:`faq6_6`)
* enable you to get a :term:`PDF` schema of
your database (also uses the table\_coords table).
The keys can be numeric or character.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the relation table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['relation']`
* now as normal user open phpMyAdmin and for each one of your tables
where you want to use this feature, click :guilabel:`Structure/Relation view/`
and choose foreign columns.
.. note::
In the current version, ``master_db`` must be the same as ``foreign_db``.
Those columns have been put in future development of the cross-db
relations.
.. _table_info:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_info']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 2.3.0 you can describe, in a special 'table\_info'
table, which column is to be displayed as a tool-tip when moving the
cursor over the corresponding key. This configuration variable will
hold the name of this special table. To allow the usage of this
functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table\_info']` (e.g.
``pma__table_info``)
* then for each table where you want to use this feature, click
"Structure/Relation view/Choose column to display" to choose the
column.
.. seealso:: :ref:`faqdisplay`
.. _table_coords:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_coords']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['pdf_pages']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 2.3.0 you can have phpMyAdmin create :term:`PDF` pages
showing the relations between your tables. To do this it needs two tables
"pdf\_pages" (storing information about the available :term:`PDF` pages)
and "table\_coords" (storing coordinates where each table will be placed on
a :term:`PDF` schema output). You must be using the "relation" feature.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the correct table names in
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table\_coords']` and
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pdf\_pages']`
.. seealso:: :ref:`faqpdf`.
.. _col_com:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['column_info']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
This part requires a content update! Since release 2.3.0 you can
store comments to describe each column for each table. These will then
be shown on the "printview".
Starting with release 2.5.0, comments are consequently used on the table
property pages and table browse view, showing up as tool-tips above the
column name (properties page) or embedded within the header of table in
browse view. They can also be shown in a table dump. Please see the
relevant configuration directives later on.
Also new in release 2.5.0 is a MIME- transformation system which is also
based on the following table structure. See :ref:`transformations` for
further information. To use the MIME- transformation system, your
column\_info table has to have the three new columns 'mimetype',
'transformation', 'transformation\_options'.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column\_info']` (e.g.
``pma__column_info``)
* to update your PRE-2.5.0 Column\_comments Table use this: and
remember that the Variable in :file:`config.inc.php` has been renamed from
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column\_comments']` to
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column\_info']`
.. code-block:: mysql
ALTER TABLE `pma__column_comments`
ADD `mimetype` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL,
ADD `transformation` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL,
ADD `transformation_options` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL;
.. _history:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['history']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 2.5.0 you can store your :term:`SQL` history, which means all
queries you entered manually into the phpMyAdmin interface. If you don't
want to use a table-based history, you can use the JavaScript-based
history.
Using that, all your history items are deleted when closing the window.
Using :config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryMax']` you can specify an amount of
history items you want to have on hold. On every login, this list gets cut
to the maximum amount.
The query history is only available if JavaScript is enabled in
your browser.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['history']` (e.g.
``pma__history``)
.. _recent:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['recent']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 3.5.0 you can show recently used tables in the
navigation panel. It helps you to jump across table directly, without
the need to select the database, and then select the table. Using
:config:option:`$cfg['NumRecentTables']` you can configure the maximum number
of recent tables shown. When you select a table from the list, it will jump to
the page specified in :config:option:`$cfg['NavigationTreeDefaultTabTable']`.
Without configuring the storage, you can still access the recently used tables,
but it will disappear after you logout.
To allow the usage of this functionality persistently:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['recent']` (e.g.
``pma__recent``)
.. _table_uiprefs:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 3.5.0 phpMyAdmin can be configured to remember several
things (sorted column :config:option:`$cfg['RememberSorting']`, column order,
and column visibility from a database table) for browsing tables. Without
configuring the storage, these features still can be used, but the values will
disappear after you logout.
To allow the usage of these functionality persistently:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table\_uiprefs']` (e.g.
``pma__table_uiprefs``)
.. _configurablemenus:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['users']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['usergroups']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 4.1.0 you can create different user groups with menu items
attached to them. Users can be assigned to these groups and the logged in
user would only see menu items configured to the usergroup he is assigned to.
To do this it needs two tables "usergroups" (storing allowed menu items for each
user group) and "users" (storing users and their assignments to user groups).
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the correct table names in
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['users']` (e.g. ``pma__users``) and
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['usergroups']` (e.g. ``pma__usergroups``)
.. _navigationhiding:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['navigationhiding']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 4.1.0 you can hide/show items in the navigation tree.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['navigationhiding']` (e.g.
``pma__navigationhiding``)
.. _savedsearches:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['savedsearches']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 4.2.0 you can save and load query-by-example searches from the Database > Query panel.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['savedsearches']` (e.g.
``pma__savedsearches``)
.. _tracking:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 3.3.x a tracking mechanism is available. It helps you to
track every :term:`SQL` command which is
executed by phpMyAdmin. The mechanism supports logging of data
manipulation and data definition statements. After enabling it you can
create versions of tables.
The creation of a version has two effects:
* phpMyAdmin saves a snapshot of the table, including structure and
indexes.
* phpMyAdmin logs all commands which change the structure and/or data of
the table and links these commands with the version number.
Of course you can view the tracked changes. On the :guilabel:`Tracking`
page a complete report is available for every version. For the report you
can use filters, for example you can get a list of statements within a date
range. When you want to filter usernames you can enter \* for all names or
you enter a list of names separated by ','. In addition you can export the
(filtered) report to a file or to a temporary database.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking']` (e.g.
``pma__tracking``)
.. _tracking2:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_version_auto_create']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Whether the tracking mechanism creates versions for tables and views
automatically.
If this is set to true and you create a table or view with
* CREATE TABLE ...
* CREATE VIEW ...
and no version exists for it, the mechanism will create a version for
you automatically.
.. _tracking3:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_default_statements']
:type: string
:default: ``'CREATE TABLE,ALTER TABLE,DROP TABLE,RENAME TABLE,CREATE INDEX,DROP INDEX,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,TRUNCATE,REPLACE,CREATE VIEW,ALTER VIEW,DROP VIEW,CREATE DATABASE,ALTER DATABASE,DROP DATABASE'``
Defines the list of statements the auto-creation uses for new
versions.
.. _tracking4:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_add_drop_view']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether a DROP VIEW IF EXISTS statement will be added as first line to
the log when creating a view.
.. _tracking5:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_add_drop_table']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether a DROP TABLE IF EXISTS statement will be added as first line
to the log when creating a table.
.. _tracking6:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking_add_drop_database']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether a DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS statement will be added as first
line to the log when creating a database.
.. _userconfig:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['userconfig']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 3.4.x phpMyAdmin allows users to set most preferences by
themselves and store them in the database.
If you don't allow for storing preferences in
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']`, users can still personalize
phpMyAdmin, but settings will be saved in browser's local storage, or, it
is is unavailable, until the end of session.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['userconfig']`
.. _designer_coords:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer_coords']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Since release 2.10.0 a Designer interface is available; it permits to
visually manage the relations.
To allow the usage of this functionality:
* set up :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']` and the phpMyAdmin configuration storage
* put the table name in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer\_coords']`
(e.g. ``pma__designer_coords``)
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['MaxTableUiprefs']
:type: integer
:default: 100
Maximum number of rows saved in
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']` table.
When tables are dropped or renamed,
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']` may contain invalid data
(referring to tables which no longer exist). We only keep this number of newest
rows in :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_uiprefs']` and automatically
delete older rows.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowRoot']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether to allow root access. This is just a shortcut for the
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules']` below.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Whether to allow logins without a password. The default value of
``false`` for this parameter prevents unintended access to a MySQL
server with was left with an empty password for root or on which an
anonymous (blank) user is defined.
.. _servers_allowdeny_order:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
If your rule order is empty, then :term:`IP`
authorization is disabled.
If your rule order is set to
``'deny,allow'`` then the system applies all deny rules followed by
allow rules. Access is allowed by default. Any client which does not
match a Deny command or does match an Allow command will be allowed
access to the server.
If your rule order is set to ``'allow,deny'``
then the system applies all allow rules followed by deny rules. Access
is denied by default. Any client which does not match an Allow
directive or does match a Deny directive will be denied access to the
server.
If your rule order is set to ``'explicit'``, authorization is
performed in a similar fashion to rule order 'deny,allow', with the
added restriction that your host/username combination **must** be
listed in the *allow* rules, and not listed in the *deny* rules. This
is the **most** secure means of using Allow/Deny rules, and was
available in Apache by specifying allow and deny rules without setting
any order.
Please also see :config:option:`$cfg['TrustedProxies']` for
detecting IP address behind proxies.
.. _servers_allowdeny_rules:
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules']
:type: array of strings
:default: array()
The general format for the rules is as such:
.. code-block:: none
<'allow' | 'deny'> <username> [from] <ipmask>
If you wish to match all users, it is possible to use a ``'%'`` as a
wildcard in the *username* field.
There are a few shortcuts you can
use in the *ipmask* field as well (please note that those containing
SERVER\_ADDRESS might not be available on all webservers):
.. code-block:: none
'all' -> 0.0.0.0/0
'localhost' -> 127.0.0.1/8
'localnetA' -> SERVER_ADDRESS/8
'localnetB' -> SERVER_ADDRESS/16
'localnetC' -> SERVER_ADDRESS/24
Having an empty rule list is equivalent to either using ``'allow %
from all'`` if your rule order is set to ``'deny,allow'`` or ``'deny %
from all'`` if your rule order is set to ``'allow,deny'`` or
``'explicit'``.
For the :term:`IP address` matching
system, the following work:
* ``xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx`` (an exact :term:`IP address`)
* ``xxx.xxx.xxx.[yyy-zzz]`` (an :term:`IP address` range)
* ``xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/nn`` (CIDR, Classless Inter-Domain Routing type :term:`IP` addresses)
But the following does not work:
* ``xxx.xxx.xxx.xx[yyy-zzz]`` (partial :term:`IP` address range)
For :term:`IPv6` addresses, the following work:
* ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx`` (an exact :term:`IPv6` address)
* ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:[yyyy-zzzz]`` (an :term:`IPv6` address range)
* ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/nn`` (CIDR, Classless Inter-Domain Routing type :term:`IPv6` addresses)
But the following does not work:
* ``xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xx[yyy-zzz]`` (partial :term:`IPv6` address range)
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonScript']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Name of PHP script to be sourced and executed to obtain login
credentials. This is alternative approach to session based single
signon. The script needs to provide function
``get_login_credentials`` which returns list of username and
password, accepting single parameter of existing username (can be
empty). See :file:`examples/signon-script.php` for an example.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonSession']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Name of session which will be used for signon authentication method.
You should use something different than ``phpMyAdmin``, because this
is session which phpMyAdmin uses internally. Takes effect only if
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonScript']` is not configured.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['SignonURL']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
:term:`URL` where user will be redirected
to log in for signon authentication method. Should be absolute
including protocol.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['LogoutURL']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
:term:`URL` where user will be redirected
after logout (doesn't affect config authentication method). Should be
absolute including protocol.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['StatusCacheDatabases']
:type: array of strings
:default: array()
Enables caching of ``TABLE STATUS`` outputs for specific databases on
this server (in some cases ``TABLE STATUS`` can be very slow, so you
may want to cache it). APC is used (if the PHP extension is available,
if not, this setting is ignored silently). You have to provide
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['StatusCacheLifetime']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Servers'][$i]['StatusCacheLifetime']
:type: integer
:default: 0
Lifetime in seconds of the ``TABLE STATUS`` cache if
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['StatusCacheDatabases']` is used.
Generic settings
----------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['ServerDefault']
:type: integer
:default: 1
If you have more than one server configured, you can set
:config:option:`$cfg['ServerDefault']` to any one of them to autoconnect to that
server when phpMyAdmin is started, or set it to 0 to be given a list
of servers without logging in.
If you have only one server configured,
:config:option:`$cfg['ServerDefault']` MUST be set to that server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['VersionCheck']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Enables check for latest versions using javascript on main phpMyAdmin
page.
.. note::
This setting can be adjusted by your vendor.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ProxyUrl']
:type: string
:default: ""
The url of the proxy to be used when phpmyadmin needs to access the outside
intenet such as when retrieving the latest version info or submitting error
reports. You need this if the server where phpMyAdmin is installed does not
have direct access to the internet.
The format is: "hostname:portnumber"
.. config:option:: $cfg['ProxyUser']
:type: string
:default: ""
The username for authenticating with the proxy. By default, no
authentication is performed. If a username is supplied, Basic
Authentication will be performed. No other types of authentication
are currently supported.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ProxyPass']
:type: string
:default: ""
The password for authenticating with the proxy.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxDbList']
:type: integer
:default: 100
The maximum number of database names to be displayed in the main panel's
database list.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxTableList']
:type: integer
:default: 250
The maximum number of table names to be displayed in the main panel's
list (except on the Export page). This limit is also enforced in the
navigation panel when in Light mode.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowHint']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether or not to show hints (for example, hints when hovering over
table headers).
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxCharactersInDisplayedSQL']
:type: integer
:default: 1000
The maximum number of characters when a :term:`SQL` query is displayed. The
default limit of 1000 should be correct to avoid the display of tons of
hexadecimal codes that represent BLOBs, but some users have real
:term:`SQL` queries that are longer than 1000 characters. Also, if a
query's length exceeds this limit, this query is not saved in the history.
.. config:option:: $cfg['PersistentConnections']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Whether `persistent connections <http://php.net/manual/en/features
.persistent-connections.php>`_ should be used or not. Works with
following extensions:
* mysql (`mysql\_pconnect <http://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-
pconnect.php>`_),
* mysqli (requires PHP 5.3.0 or newer, `more information
<http://php.net/manual/en/mysqli.persistconns.php>`_).
.. config:option:: $cfg['ForceSSL']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Whether to force using https while accessing phpMyAdmin.
.. note::
In some setups (like separate SSL proxy or load balancer) you might
have to set :config:option:`$cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri']` for correct
redirection.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ExecTimeLimit']
:type: integer [number of seconds]
:default: 300
Set the number of seconds a script is allowed to run. If seconds is
set to zero, no time limit is imposed. This setting is used while
importing/exporting dump files but has
no effect when PHP is running in safe mode.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SessionSavePath']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Path for storing session data (`session\_save\_path PHP parameter
<http://php.net/session_save_path>`_).
.. config:option:: $cfg['MemoryLimit']
:type: string [number of bytes]
:default: ``'-1'``
Set the number of bytes a script is allowed to allocate. If set to
``'-1'``, no limit is imposed.
This setting is used while importing/exporting dump files and at some other
places in phpMyAdmin so you definitely don't want to put here a too low
value. It has no effect when PHP is running in safe mode.
You can also use any string as in :file:`php.ini`, eg. '16M'. Ensure you
don't omit the suffix (16 means 16 bytes!)
.. config:option:: $cfg['SkipLockedTables']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Mark used tables and make it possible to show databases with locked
tables (since MySQL 3.23.30).
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowSQL']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether :term:`SQL` queries
generated by phpMyAdmin should be displayed or not.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RetainQueryBox']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Defines whether the :term:`SQL` query box
should be kept displayed after its submission.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CodemirrorEnable']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether to use a Javascript code editor for SQL query boxes.
CodeMirror provides syntax highlighting and line numbers. However,
middle-clicking for pasting the clipboard contents in some Linux
distributions (such as Ubuntu) is not supported by all browsers.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AllowUserDropDatabase']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Defines whether normal users (non-administrator) are allowed to delete
their own database or not. If set as false, the link :guilabel:`Drop
Database` will not be shown, and even a ``DROP DATABASE mydatabase`` will
be rejected. Quite practical for :term:`ISP` 's with many customers.
.. note::
This limitation of :term:`SQL` queries is not
as strict as when using MySQL privileges. This is due to nature of
:term:`SQL` queries which might be quite
complicated. So this choice should be viewed as help to avoid accidental
dropping rather than strict privilege limitation.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Confirm']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether a warning ("Are your really sure...") should be displayed when
you're about to lose data.
.. config:option:: $cfg['UseDbSearch']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Define whether the "search string inside database" is enabled or not.
.. config:option:: $cfg['IgnoreMultiSubmitErrors']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Define whether phpMyAdmin will continue executing a multi-query
statement if one of the queries fails. Default is to abort execution.
Cookie authentication options
-----------------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['blowfish_secret']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The "cookie" auth\_type uses blowfish algorithm to encrypt the
password. If you are using the "cookie" auth\_type, enter here a
random passphrase of your choice. It will be used internally by the
blowfish algorithm: you won’t be prompted for this passphrase. There
is no maximum length for this secret.
.. versionchanged:: 3.1.0
Since version 3.1.0 phpMyAdmin can generate this on the fly, but it
makes a bit weaker security as this generated secret is stored in
session and furthermore it makes impossible to recall user name from
cookie.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieRecall']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Define whether the previous login should be recalled or not in cookie
authentication mode.
This is automatically disabled if you do not have
configured :config:option:`$cfg['blowfish_secret']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieValidity']
:type: integer [number of seconds]
:default: 1440
Define how long a login cookie is valid. Please note that php
configuration option `session.gc\_maxlifetime
<http://php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.gc-
maxlifetime>`_ might limit session validity and if the session is lost,
the login cookie is also invalidated. So it is a good idea to set
``session.gc_maxlifetime`` at least to the same value of
:config:option:`$cfg['LoginCookieValidity']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieStore']
:type: integer [number of seconds]
:default: 0
Define how long login cookie should be stored in browser. Default 0
means that it will be kept for existing session. This is recommended
for not trusted environments.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LoginCookieDeleteAll']
:type: boolean
:default: true
If enabled (default), logout deletes cookies for all servers,
otherwise only for current one. Setting this to false makes it easy to
forget to log out from other server, when you are using more of them.
.. _AllowArbitraryServer:
.. config:option:: $cfg['AllowArbitraryServer']
:type: boolean
:default: false
If enabled, allows you to log in to arbitrary servers using cookie
authentication.
.. note::
Please use this carefully, as this may allow users access to MySQL servers
behind the firewall where your :term:`HTTP`
server is placed.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaLoginPublicKey']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The public key for the reCaptcha service that can be obtain from
http://www.google.com/recaptcha.
reCaptcha will be then used in :ref:`cookie`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['CaptchaLoginPrivateKey']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The private key for the reCaptcha service that can be obtain from
http://www.google.com/recaptcha.
reCaptcha will be then used in :ref:`cookie`.
Navigation panel setup
----------------------

:type: integer
:default: 250
The number of first level databases that can be displayed on each page
of navigation tree.

page of the navigation tree.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeEnableGrouping']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether to group the databases based on a common prefix
in their name :config:option:`$cfg['NavigationTreeDbSeparator']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDbSeparator']
:type: string or array
:default: ``'_'``
The string used to separate the parts of the database name when
showing them in a tree. Alternatively you can specify more strings in
an array and all of them will be used as a separator.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeTableSeparator']
:type: string or array
:default: ``'__'``
Defines a string to be used to nest table spaces. This means if you have
tables like ``first__second__third`` this will be shown as a three-level
hierarchy like: first > second > third. If set to false or empty, the
feature is disabled. NOTE: You should not use this separator at the
beginning or end of a table name or multiple times after another without
any other characters in between.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeTableLevel']
:type: integer
:default: 1
Defines how many sublevels should be displayed when splitting up
tables by the above separator.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NumRecentTables']
:type: integer
:default: 10
The maximum number of recently used tables shown in the navigation
panel. Set this to 0 (zero) to disable the listing of recent tables.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationDisplayLogo']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether or not to display the phpMyAdmin logo at the top of
the navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationLogoLink']
:type: string

navigation panel will point to. For use especially with self made
theme which changes this.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationLogoLinkWindow']
:type: string
:default: ``'main'``
Whether to open the linked page in the main window (``main``) or in a
new one (``new``). Note: use ``new`` if you are linking to
``phpmyadmin.net``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDisplayItemFilterMinimum']
:type: integer
:default: 30
Defines the minimum number of items (tables, views, routines and
events) to display a JavaScript filter box above the list of items in
the navigation tree.
To disable the filter completely some high number can be used (e.g. 9999)
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDisplayDbFilterMinimum']
:type: integer
:default: 30
Defines the minimum number of databases to display a JavaScript filter
box above the list of databases in the navigation tree.
To disable the filter completely some high number can be used
(e.g. 9999)
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationDisplayServers']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether or not to display a server choice at the top of the
navigation panel.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DisplayServersList']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Defines whether to display this server choice as links instead of in a
drop-down.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreeDefaultTabTable']
:type: string
:default: ``'tbl_structure.php'``
Defines the tab displayed by default when clicking the small icon next
to each table name in the navigation panel. Possible values:
* ``tbl_structure.php``
* ``tbl_sql.php``

Main panel
----------
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowStats']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether or not to display space usage and statistics about
databases and tables. Note that statistics requires at least MySQL
3.23.3 and that, at this date, MySQL doesn't return such information
for Berkeley DB tables.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowServerInfo']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether to display detailed server information on main page.
You can additionally hide more information by using
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowPhpInfo']
:type: boolean
:default: false
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowChgPassword']
:type: boolean
:default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowCreateDb']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether to display the :guilabel:`PHP information` and
:guilabel:`Change password` links and form for creating database or not at
the starting main (right) frame. This setting does not check MySQL commands
entered directly.
Please note that to block the usage of ``phpinfo()`` in scripts, you have to
put this in your :file:`php.ini`:
.. code-block:: ini
disable_functions = phpinfo()
Also note that enabling the :guilabel:`Change password` link has no effect
with config authentication mode: because of the hard coded password value
in the configuration file, end users can't be allowed to change their
passwords.
Database structure
------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowDbStructureCreation']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Defines whether the database structure page (tables list) has a
"Creation" column that displays when each table was created.

or ``'both'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowAll']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Defines whether a user should be displayed a "Show all" button in browse
mode or not in all cases. By default it is shown only on small tables (less
than 500 rows) to avoid performance issues while getting too many rows.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxRows']
:type: integer
:default: 25
Number of rows displayed when browsing a result set and no LIMIT
clause is used. If the result set contains more rows, "Previous" and
"Next" links will be shown. Possible values: 25,50,100,250,500.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Order']
:type: string
:default: ``'SMART'``
Defines whether columns are displayed in ascending (``ASC``) order, in
descending (``DESC``) order or in a "smart" (``SMART``) order - I.E.

:default: ``'blob'``
Defines whether ``BLOB`` or ``BINARY`` columns are protected from
editing when browsing a table's content. Valid values are:
* ``false`` to allow editing of all columns;
* ``'blob'`` to allow editing of all columns except ``BLOBS``;
* ``'noblob'`` to disallow editing of all columns except ``BLOBS`` (the
opposite of ``'blob'``);
* ``'all'`` to disallow editing of all ``BINARY`` or ``BLOB`` columns.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowFunctionFields']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether or not MySQL functions fields should be initially
displayed in edit/insert mode. Since version 2.10, the user can toggle
this setting from the interface.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowFieldTypesInDataEditView']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether or not type fields should be initially displayed in
edit/insert mode. The user can toggle this setting from the interface.

For the foreign key drop-down fields, there are several methods of
display, offering both the key and value data. The contents of the
array should be one or both of the following strings: ``content-id``,
``id-content``.
Export and import settings
--------------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['ZipDump']
:type: boolean
:default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['GZipDump']
:type: boolean
:default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['BZipDump']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether to allow the use of zip/GZip/BZip2 compression when
creating a dump file
.. config:option:: $cfg['CompressOnFly']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether to allow on the fly compression for GZip/BZip2
compressed exports. This doesn't affect smaller dumps and allows users
to create larger dumps that won't otherwise fit in memory due to php
memory limit. Produced files contain more GZip/BZip2 headers, but all
normal programs handle this correctly.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']
:type: array
:default: array(...)
In this array are defined default parameters for export, names of
items are similar to texts seen on export page, so you can easily
identify what they mean.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Export']['method']
:type: string
:default: ``'quick'``
Defines how the export form is displayed when it loads. Valid values
are:
* ``quick`` to display the minimum number of options to configure

:type: string
:default: ``'both'``
Defines whether the menu tabs contain ``'icons'``, ``'text'`` or ``'both'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ActionLinksMode']
:type: string
:default: ``'both'``
If set to ``icons``, will display icons instead of text for db and table
properties links (like :guilabel:`Browse`, :guilabel:`Select`,
:guilabel:`Insert`, ...). Can be set to ``'both'``
if you want icons AND text. When set to ``text``, will only show text.
.. config:option:: $cfg['PropertiesNumColumns']
:type: integer
:default: 1
How many columns will be utilized to display the tables on the database
property view? When setting this to a value larger than 1, the type of the
database will be omitted for more display space.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultTabServer']
:type: string
:default: ``'index.php'``
Defines the tab displayed by default on server view. Possible values:
* ``main.php`` (recommended for multi-user setups)
* ``server_databases.php``,
* ``server_status.php``
* ``server_variables.php``
* ``server_privileges.php``
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultTabDatabase']
:type: string
:default: ``'db_structure.php'``
Defines the tab displayed by default on database view. Possible
values:
* ``db_structure.php``
* ``db_sql.php``
* ``db_search.php``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultTabTable']
:type: string
:default: ``'sql.php'``
Defines the tab displayed by default on table view. Possible values:
* ``tbl_structure.php``
* ``tbl_sql.php``
* ``tbl_select.php``
* ``tbl_change.php``
* ``sql.php``
PDF Options
-----------
.. config:option:: $cfg['PDFPageSizes']
:type: array
:default: ``array('A3', 'A4', 'A5', 'letter', 'legal')``
Array of possible paper sizes for creating PDF pages.
You should never need to change this.
.. config:option:: $cfg['PDFDefaultPageSize']
:type: string
:default: ``'A4'``
Default page size to use when creating PDF pages. Valid values are any
listed in :config:option:`$cfg['PDFPageSizes']`.
Languages
---------
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultLang']
:type: string
:default: ``'en'``
Defines the default language to use, if not browser-defined or user-
defined. The corresponding language file needs to be in
locale/*code*/LC\_MESSAGES/phpmyadmin.mo.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultConnectionCollation']
:type: string
:default: ``'utf8_general_ci'``
Defines the default connection collation to use, if not user-defined.
See the `MySQL documentation <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en
/charset-charsets.html>`_ for list of possible values. This setting is
ignored when connected to Drizzle server.
.. config:option:: $cfg['Lang']
:type: string
:default: not set
Force language to use. The corresponding language file needs to be in
locale/*code*/LC\_MESSAGES/phpmyadmin.mo.
.. config:option:: $cfg['FilterLanguages']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Limit list of available languages to those matching the given regular
expression. For example if you want only Czech and English, you should
set filter to ``'^(cs|en)'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RecodingEngine']
:type: string
:default: ``'auto'``
You can select here which functions will be used for character set
conversion. Possible values are:
* auto - automatically use available one (first is tested iconv, then
recode)
* iconv - use iconv or libiconv functions
* recode - use recode\_string function
* mb - use mbstring extension
* none - disable encoding conversion
Enabled charset conversion activates a pull-down menu in the Export
and Import pages, to choose the character set when exporting a file.
The default value in this menu comes from
:config:option:`$cfg['Export']['charset']` and :config:option:`$cfg['Import']['charset']`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['IconvExtraParams']
:type: string
:default: ``'//TRANSLIT'``
Specify some parameters for iconv used in charset conversion. See
`iconv documentation <http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/documentati
on/libiconv/iconv_open.3.html>`_ for details. By default
``//TRANSLIT`` is used, so that invalid characters will be
transliterated.
.. config:option:: $cfg['AvailableCharsets']
:type: array
:default: array(..._
Available character sets for MySQL conversion. You can add your own
(any of supported by recode/iconv) or remove these which you don't
use. Character sets will be shown in same order as here listed, so if
you frequently use some of these move them to the top.
Web server settings
-------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['OBGzip']
:type: string/boolean
:default: ``'auto'``
Defines whether to use GZip output buffering for increased speed in
:term:`HTTP` transfers. Set to
true/false for enabling/disabling. When set to 'auto' (string),
phpMyAdmin tries to enable output buffering and will automatically
disable it if your browser has some problems with buffering. IE6 with
a certain patch is known to cause data corruption when having enabled
buffering.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TrustedProxies']
:type: array
:default: array()
Lists proxies and HTTP headers which are trusted for
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['order']`. This list is by
default empty, you need to fill in some trusted proxy servers if you
want to use rules for IP addresses behind proxy.
The following example specifies that phpMyAdmin should trust a
HTTP\_X\_FORWARDED\_FOR (``X -Forwarded-For``) header coming from the proxy
1.2.3.4:
.. code-block:: php
$cfg['TrustedProxies'] = array('1.2.3.4' => 'HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR');
The :config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowDeny']['rules']` directive uses the
client's IP address as usual.
.. config:option:: $cfg['GD2Available']
:type: string
:default: ``'auto'``
Specifies whether GD >= 2 is available. If yes it can be used for MIME
transformations. Possible values are:
* auto - automatically detect
* yes - GD 2 functions can be used
* no - GD 2 function cannot be used
.. config:option:: $cfg['CheckConfigurationPermissions']
:type: boolean
:default: true
We normally check the permissions on the configuration file to ensure
it's not world writable. However, phpMyAdmin could be installed on a
NTFS filesystem mounted on a non-Windows server, in which case the
permissions seems wrong but in fact cannot be detected. In this case a
sysadmin would set this parameter to ``false``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LinkLengthLimit']
:type: integer
:default: 1000
Limit for length of :term:`URL` in links. When length would be above this
limit, it is replaced by form with button. This is required as some web
servers (:term:`IIS`) have problems with long :term:`URL` .
.. config:option:: $cfg['CSPAllow']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Additional string to include in allowed script and image sources in Content
Security Policy header.
This can be useful when you want to include some external javascript files
in :file:`config.footer.inc.php` or :file:`config.header.inc.php`, which
would be normally not allowed by Content Security Policy.
To allow some sites, just list them within the string:
.. code-block:: php
$cfg['CSPAllow'] = 'example.com example.net';
.. versionadded:: 4.0.4
.. config:option:: $cfg['DisableMultiTableMaintenance']
:type: boolean
:default: false
In the database Structure page, it's possible to mark some tables then
choose an operation like optimizing for many tables. This can slow
down a server; therefore, setting this to ``true`` prevents this kind
of multiple maintenance operation.
Theme settings
--------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['NaviWidth']
:type: integer
:default:
Navigation panel width in pixels. See
:file:`themes/themename/layout.inc.php`.

:file:`themes/themename/layout.inc.php`.
.. _cfg_BgcolorTwo:
.. config:option:: $cfg['BgTwo']
:type: string [CSS color]
:default:
The color (HTML) #2 for table rows. See
:file:`themes/themename/layout.inc.php`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowsePointerBackground']
:type: string [CSS color]
:default:
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowsePointerColor']
:type: string [CSS color]
:default:
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowseMarkerBackground']
:type: string [CSS color]
:default:
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowseMarkerColor']
:type: string [CSS color]
:default:
The colors (HTML) uses for the pointer and the marker in browse mode.
The former feature highlights the row over which your mouse is passing
and the latter lets you visually mark/unmark rows by clicking on the
corresponding checkbox. Highlighting / marking a column is done by
hovering over / clicking the column's header (outside of the text).
See :file:`themes/themename/layout.inc.php`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['FontFamily']
:type: string
:default:
You put here a valid CSS font family value, for example ``arial, sans-
serif``. See :file:`themes/themename/layout.inc.php`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['FontFamilyFixed']
:type: string
:default:
You put here a valid CSS font family value, for example ``monospace``.
This one is used in textarea. See :file:`themes/themename/layout.inc.php`.
Design customization
--------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['NavigationTreePointerEnable']
:type: boolean
:default: true
A value of ``true`` activates the navi pointer.
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowsePointerEnable']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether to activate the browse pointer or not.
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowseMarkerEnable']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether to activate the browse marker or not.
.. config:option:: $cfg['LimitChars']
:type: integer
:default: 50
Maximum number of characters shown in any non-numeric field on browse
view. Can be turned off by a toggle button on the browse page.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RowActionLinks']
:type: string
:default: ``'left'``
Defines the place where table row links (Edit, Copy, Delete) would be
put when tables contents are displayed (you may have them displayed at
the left side, right side, both sides or nowhere). "left" and "right"
are parsed as "top" and "bottom" with vertical display mode.
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultDisplay']
:type: string
:default: ``'horizonta'``
There are 3 display modes: horizontal, horizontalflipped and vertical.
Define which one is displayed by default. The first mode displays each
row on a horizontal line, the second rotates the headers by 90
degrees, so you can use descriptive headers even though columns only
contain small values and still print them out. The vertical mode sorts
each row on a vertical lineup.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RememberSorting']
:type: boolean
:default: true
If enabled, remember the sorting of each table when browsing them.
.. config:option:: $cfg['HeaderFlipType']
:type: string
:default: ``'auto'``
The HeaderFlipType can be set to 'auto', 'css' or 'fake'. When using
'css' the rotation of the header for horizontalflipped is done via
CSS. The CSS transformation currently works only in Internet
Explorer.If set to 'fake' PHP does the transformation for you, but of
course this does not look as good as CSS. The 'auto' option enables
CSS transformation when browser supports it and use PHP based one
otherwise.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowBrowseComments']
:type: boolean
:default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowPropertyComments']
:type: boolean
:default: true
By setting the corresponding variable to ``true`` you can enable the
display of column comments in Browse or Property display. In browse
mode, the comments are shown inside the header. In property mode,
comments are displayed using a CSS-formatted dashed-line below the
name of the column. The comment is shown as a tool-tip for that
column.
Text fields
-----------
.. config:option:: $cfg['CharEditing']
:type: string
:default: ``'input'``
Defines which type of editing controls should be used for CHAR and
VARCHAR columns. Applies to data editing and also to the default values
in structure editing. Possible values are:
* input - this allows to limit size of text to size of columns in MySQL,
but has problems with newlines in columns
* textarea - no problems with newlines in columns, but also no length
limitations
.. config:option:: $cfg['MinSizeForInputField']
:type: integer
:default: 4
Defines the minimum size for input fields generated for CHAR and
VARCHAR columns.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxSizeForInputField']
:type: integer
:default: 60
Defines the maximum size for input fields generated for CHAR and
VARCHAR columns.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TextareaCols']
:type: integer
:default: 40
.. config:option:: $cfg['TextareaRows']
:type: integer
:default: 15
.. config:option:: $cfg['CharTextareaCols']
:type: integer
:default: 40
.. config:option:: $cfg['CharTextareaRows']
:type: integer
:default: 2
Number of columns and rows for the textareas. This value will be
emphasized (\*2) for :term:`SQL` query
textareas and (\*1.25) for :term:`SQL`
textareas inside the query window.
The Char\* values are used for CHAR
and VARCHAR editing (if configured via :config:option:`$cfg['CharEditing']`).
.. config:option:: $cfg['LongtextDoubleTextarea']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Defines whether textarea for LONGTEXT columns should have double size.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TextareaAutoSelect']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Defines if the whole textarea of the query box will be selected on
click.
SQL query box settings
----------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['Edit']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether to display an edit link to change a query in any SQL Query
box.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['Explain']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether to display a link to explain a SELECT query in any SQL Query
box.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['ShowAsPHP']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether to display a link to wrap a query in PHP code in any SQL Query
box.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SQLQuery']['Refresh']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Whether to display a link to refresh a query in any SQL Query box.
Web server upload/save/import directories
-----------------------------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['UploadDir']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The name of the directory where :term:`SQL` files have been uploaded by
other means than phpMyAdmin (for example, ftp). Those files are available
under a drop-down box when you click the database or table name, then the
Import tab.
If
you want different directory for each user, %u will be replaced with
username.
Please note that the file names must have the suffix ".sql"
(or ".sql.bz2" or ".sql.gz" if support for compressed formats is
enabled).
This feature is useful when your file is too big to be
uploaded via :term:`HTTP`, or when file
uploads are disabled in PHP.
.. note::
If PHP is running in safe mode, this directory must be owned by the same
user as the owner of the phpMyAdmin scripts. See also :ref:`faq1_16` for
alternatives.
.. config:option:: $cfg['SaveDir']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The name of the directory where dumps can be saved.
If you want different directory for each user, %u will be replaced with
username.
Please note that the directory must exist and has to be writable for
the user running webserver.
.. note::
If PHP is running in safe mode, this directory must be owned by the same
user as the owner of the phpMyAdmin scripts.
.. config:option:: $cfg['TempDir']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
The name of the directory where temporary files can be stored.
This is needed for importing ESRI Shapefiles, see :ref:`faq6_30` and to
work around limitations of ``open_basedir`` for uploaded files, see
:ref:`faq1_11`.
If the directory where phpMyAdmin is installed is
subject to an ``open_basedir`` restriction, you need to create a
temporary directory in some directory accessible by the web server.
However for security reasons, this directory should be outside the
tree published by webserver. If you cannot avoid having this directory
published by webserver, place at least an empty :file:`index.html` file
there, so that directory listing is not possible.
This directory should have as strict permissions as possible as the only
user required to access this directory is the one who runs the webserver.
If you have root privileges, simply make this user owner of this directory
and make it accessible only by it:
.. code-block:: sh
chown www-data:www-data tmp
chmod 700 tmp
If you cannot change owner of the directory, you can achieve a similar
setup using :term:`ACL`:
.. code-block:: sh
chmod 700 tmp
setfacl -m "g:www-data:rwx" tmp
setfacl -d -m "g:www-data:rwx" tmp
If neither of above works for you, you can still make the directory
:command:`chmod 777`, but it might impose risk of other users on system
reading and writing data in this directory.
Various display setting
-----------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['ShowDisplayDirection']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Defines whether or not type display direction option is shown when
browsing a table.
.. config:option:: $cfg['RepeatCells']
:type: integer
:default: 100
Repeat the headers every X cells, or 0 to deactivate.
.. config:option:: $cfg['EditInWindow']
:type: boolean
:default: true
.. config:option:: $cfg['QueryWindowWidth']
:type: integer
:default: 550
.. config:option:: $cfg['QueryWindowHeight']
:type: integer
:default: 310
.. config:option:: $cfg['QueryHistoryDB']
:type: boolean
:default: false
.. config:option:: $cfg['QueryWindowDefTab']
:type: string
:default: ``'sql'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['QueryHistoryMax']
:type: integer
:default: 25
All those variables affect the query window feature. A :term:`SQL` link or
icon is always displayed in the navigation panel. If JavaScript is enabled
in your browser, a click on this opens a distinct query window, which is a
direct interface to enter :term:`SQL` queries. Otherwise, the right panel
changes to display a query box.
The size of this query window can be customized with
:config:option:`$cfg['QueryWindowWidth']` and
:config:option:`$cfg['QueryWindowHeight']` - both integers for the size in
pixels. Note that normally, those parameters will be modified in
:file:`layout.inc.php`` for the theme you are using.
If :config:option:`$cfg['EditInWindow']` is set to true, a click on [Edit]
from the results page (in the :guilabel:`Showing Rows` section) opens the
query window and puts the current query inside it. If set to false,
clicking on the link puts the :term:`SQL` query
in the right panel's query box.
If :config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryDB']` is set to ``true``, all your
Queries are logged to a table, which has to be created by you (see
:config:option:`$cfg['Servers'][$i]['history']`). If set to false, all your
queries will be appended to the form, but only as long as your window is
opened they remain saved.
When using the JavaScript based query window, it will always get updated
when you click on a new table/db to browse and will focus if you click on
:guilabel:`Edit SQL` after using a query. You can suppress updating the
query window by checking the box :guilabel:`Do not overwrite this query
from outside the window` below the query textarea. Then you can browse
tables/databases in the background without losing the contents of the
textarea, so this is especially useful when composing a query with tables
you first have to look in. The checkbox will get automatically checked
whenever you change the contents of the textarea. Please uncheck the button
whenever you definitely want the query window to get updated even though
you have made alterations.
If :config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryDB']` is set to ``true`` you can
specify the amount of saved history items using
:config:option:`$cfg['QueryHistoryMax']`.
The query window also has a custom tabbed look to group the features.
Using the variable :config:option:`$cfg['QueryWindowDefTab']` you can
specify the default tab to be used when opening the query window. It can be
set to either ``sql``, ``files``, ``history`` or ``full``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['BrowseMIME']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Enable :ref:`transformations`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxExactCount']
:type: integer
:default: 500000
For InnoDB tables, determines for how large tables phpMyAdmin should
get the exact row count using ``SELECT COUNT``. If the approximate row
count as returned by ``SHOW TABLE STATUS`` is smaller than this value,
``SELECT COUNT`` will be used, otherwise the approximate count will be
used.
.. config:option:: $cfg['MaxExactCountViews']
:type: integer
:default: 0
For VIEWs, since obtaining the exact count could have an impact on
performance, this value is the maximum to be displayed, using a
``SELECT COUNT ... LIMIT``. Setting this to 0 bypasses any row
counting.
.. config:option:: $cfg['NaturalOrder']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Sorts database and table names according to natural order (for
example, t1, t2, t10). Currently implemented in the navigation panel
and in Database view, for the table list.
.. config:option:: $cfg['InitialSlidersState']
:type: string
:default: ``'closed'``
If set to ``'closed'``, the visual sliders are initially in a closed
state. A value of ``'open'`` does the reverse. To completely disable
all visual sliders, use ``'disabled'``.
.. config:option:: $cfg['UserprefsDisallow']
:type: array
:default: array()
Contains names of configuration options (keys in ``$cfg`` array) that
users can't set through user preferences. For possible values, refer
to :file:`libraries/config/user_preferences.forms.php`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['UserprefsDeveloperTab']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Activates in the user preferences a tab containing options for
developers of phpMyAdmin.
Page titles
-----------
.. config:option:: $cfg['TitleTable']
:type: string
:default: ``'@HTTP_HOST@ / @VSERVER@ / @DATABASE@ / @TABLE@ | @PHPMYADMIN@'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['TitleDatabase']
:type: string
:default: ``'@HTTP_HOST@ / @VSERVER@ / @DATABASE@ | @PHPMYADMIN@'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['TitleServer']
:type: string
:default: ``'@HTTP_HOST@ / @VSERVER@ | @PHPMYADMIN@'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['TitleDefault']
:type: string
:default: ``'@HTTP_HOST@ | @PHPMYADMIN@'``
Allows you to specify window's title bar. You can use :ref:`faq6_27`.
Theme manager settings
----------------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['ThemePath']
:type: string
:default: ``'./themes'``
If theme manager is active, use this as the path of the subdirectory
containing all the themes.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ThemeManager']
:type: boolean
:default: true
Enables user-selectable themes. See :ref:`faqthemes`.
.. config:option:: $cfg['ThemeDefault']
:type: string
:default: ``'pmahomme'``
The default theme (a subdirectory under :config:option:`$cfg['ThemePath']`).
.. config:option:: $cfg['ThemePerServer']
:type: boolean
:default: false
Whether to allow different theme for each server.
Default queries
---------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultQueryTable']
:type: string
:default: ``'SELECT * FROM @TABLE@ WHERE 1'``
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultQueryDatabase']
:type: string
:default: ``''``
Default queries that will be displayed in query boxes when user didn't
specify any. You can use standard :ref:`faq6_27`.
MySQL settings
--------------
.. config:option:: $cfg['DefaultFunctions']
:type: array
:default: array(...)
Functions selected by default when inserting/changing row, Functions
are defined for meta types as (FUNC\_NUMBER, FUNC\_DATE, FUNC\_CHAR,
FUNC\_SPATIAL, FUNC\_UUID) and for ``first_timestamp``, which is used
for first timestamp column in table.
