I have phpmyadmin running on a remote VPS. It has been working fine for months. Today I tried to import a new table but it hung up with a message saying the file is being processed – please be patient. After an hour of being patient I closed phpmyadmin. Now when I try to access it the browser just hangs their trying to connect. The table that I was importing was just an empty structure with no data, i.e. small file. I have done this many times in the past with no issues.
The website is still working fine and is able to access the mysql database. I can log on to mysql remotely through SSH and it appears to be working OK. I am sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but can anyone suggest the best way to diagnose this and connect to phpmyadmin again?
Have you tried restarting Apache, MySQL, or the entire server?
service ___ restartor
/etc/init.d/___ restartWhere _: apache2, httpd, and/or mysqld, depending on your setup.
