(First question is your mysql root password, leave the second black to make a random PMA password, and in the list remember to select "lighttpd").

I only down with keyboard and press enter, so when i try to enter in phpmyadmin apeear

404 - Not Found

... how can i fix that?

I tried to remove phpmyadmin and install again, but didnt ask to choose between lighttpd or apache2, so, continue without lighttpd selected, and phpmyadmin 404 - Not Found



Edit:

Solved: Ok I used:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin

and it fixed the 404 error but caused problem 2 below.


Problem 2:

you were supposed to add an alias to lighttpd conf, not create symbolic link

alias.url = ( "/phpmyadmin/" => "/usr/share/phpmyadmin/")

if it still throws 403, check permissions of /usr/share/phpmyadmin (maybe lighttpd user has no permission to access this dir?)

Solved:

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

When i try to enter localhost/phpmyadmin i get this error "403 - Forbidden"... How to solve this cyko?

you need read and execute permissions (write is optional) on the folder, or index.php is missing, or there's no PHP handler in configuration

also set correct owner for the www folder, typically user www-data

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www

if you installed phpmyadmin via apt-get, it's in /usr/share/phpmyadmin as mentioned above
