Solved 404 Error - Phpmyadmin - Ubuntu

[Extrodus]

So I finished installing Ubuntu today, was following the tutorials here - and did everything according to plan. Website is online now - but when I go to localhost/phpmyadmin it brings up "404 - Not Found". Doing my normal google searches, there is no help for lighttpd. Most threads say to enter a command line for apache, even testing that code it returns "apache is not installed, so not edited" or something along those lines.

So kind of frusterating, so I followed reinstall/reconfigure package tutorials and made sure everything is set up the way it should be and I can't stop any errors - so hopefully theres a kind soul here that has delt with this.

Thanks in advance,
Extrodus

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow phpmyadmin
sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin
sudo /etc/init.d/lighttpd restart

Now I'm getting a 403 - Forbidden, we are clearly getting somewhere though!

You sir have been a major help, first link didn't do anything but the second link (adding text to config) worked for me. Nows its up and running and I am ready to start adding my server and testing it on ubuntu! Thank you.
