Configuring phpmyadmin with nginx
Install the php dependencies
apt-get install phpmyadmin php5-fpm
Modify /etc/nginx/sites-available/default and add the following at the end of the server section
location ^~ /phpmyadmin {
alias /usr/share/phpmyadmin/;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
To restrict access to a certain IP, add the following just below the index line that you have just added…
allow 127.0.0.1; allow 1.2.3.4; deny all;
enable mcrypt extension
php5enmod mcrypt
restart nginx & php5
service restart nginx
service restart php5-fpm
