PHPMyAdmin error :

Do you ever come across the following error when you access PHPMyAdmin from cPanel.

“Access Denied Unable to establish a PHP session. If you believe that this is in error or inadvertent, contact your system administrator and ask them to review your server settings.”

Normally, you will get this error when the permission or ownership of the tmp folder for this user is wrong. That is, make sure the ownership of /home/$username/tmp folder has ownership set to $user and permission as 755. If it is not, you will face the same problem.

Solution :

Step 1 : Login to the server via SSH as root.

Step 2 : Check the permission and ownership of /home/$user/tmp folder.

Step 3 : Set ownership as $user by using following command

# chown $user. /home/$user/tmp

Step 4 : Set permission of the tmp folder to 755 by using following command

#chmod 755 /home/$user/tmp

That’s it!!!

$user can be replaced with your respective username.

phpMyAdmin makes the task of managing your MySQL databases easier and more efficient, and it allows you to manage those available databases from anywhere. With phpMyAdmin, you can create, edit, back up, Import, export, and delete databases, as well as manage database tables. When you export a database, you are creating a backup file of the database. This backup file is usually a .sql file (a text file), and can be used to copy and import the database onto another server. 

Export Database using PHPMyAdmin

1) Log into phpMyAdmin

2) Click the database you are working with.

3) Click Export Button

4) Under the Export heading, Selected SQL option

5) Under the Options heading, ensure that you have selected, Add DROP TABLE / VIEW / PROCEDURE / FUNCTION

6) Ensure the Save as file option is checked.

7)  Click Go Button

8) You will be prompted to either open or save the file. Select the option to save the file and then save the somewhere you’ll remember.
