I just set up phpMyAdmin3 with Nginx, and php-fcgi on PHP 5.3.8. Everything works

  • 0

I just set up phpMyAdmin3 with Nginx, and php-fcgi on PHP 5.3.8. Everything works perfectly when I rename php.ini to php.ini.disabled.

I get a generic error that says “Cannot start session without errors, please check errors given in your PHP and/or webserver log file and configure your PHP installation properly.” when I run phpMyAdmin while php.ini is in tact.

When I run phpMyAdmin’s index.php from the command line, it gives me the expected response: an html page saying “Wrong username/password. Access denied.”

Can anyone point me in the right direction of where to look or what configuration option would probably be messed up in php.ini?

    Have you made any changes to php.ini? Check your settings with a test php file with the following code

    <?php phpinfo(); ?>

    If nothing jumps out at you, try resetting the file. This php.ini might work.

    If your really having trouble, consider reinstalling everything (assuming your not on a public server). A clean install of PHP and phpMyAdmin should fix any problems you may have.
