How do I access PHPMyAdmin after install in Ubuntu?

Question

I installed Apache and then PHPMyAdmin on my Ubuntu server, but I have not been able to access PHPMyAdmin at http://localhost/phpmyadmin/. http://localhost is working however.

Answer 1

What errors did the error logs (access and or error logs)? That would help determining the issue. Could be a socket issue, but could be a url issue too. I assume PHP is installed too?

Did you install MySQL?
