Description claire robinson 2012-05-31 11:27:03 CEST 
Installed phpmyadmin as part of task-lamp

Installed php-mysqli to workaround bug 6187

It also complains..

The phpMyAdmin configuration storage is not completely configured, some extended features have been deactivated. To find out why click here.

When I click the 'click here' it shows a page of errors and some action which should be taken to correct them..

Quick steps to setup advanced features:

    Create the needed tables with the examples/create_tables.sql. Documentation
    Create a pma user and give access to these tables. Documentation
    Enable advanced features in configuration file (config.inc.php), for example by starting from config.sample.inc.php. Documentation
    Re-login to phpMyAdmin to load the updated configuration file.

Comment 1 José Jorge 2012-06-25 15:19:18 CEST 
As this is not enabled in a default phpMyAdmin install, I think our package should not enable it.

This is for advanced users, who should enable it themselves as it will create mariadb tables that can be confusing.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID

Comment 2 claire robinson 2012-06-25 16:09:36 CEST 
Could it be that it is enabled but not configured. It currently gives a warning message at the bottom of each page.

Resolution: INVALID => WONTFIX
