Thanks for your reply.
Composer is installed. I get:
$ apt-file search Composer/CaBundle/autoload.php
php-composer-ca-bundle: /usr/share/php/Composer/CaBundle/autoload.php
I tried to install it and reinstall it. It's there and has been reinstalled. It is not chanigng the outcome.
I guess it has to be permissions.
The script I am mentioning is:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow phpmyadmin
This comes right from /usr/share/doc/phpmyadmin/README.Debian
The -plow switch is not listed in the help page when I run it with -h and no target. I suspect it is just doing -p.
It re sets up the database for phpmyadmin... I guess given that numerous programs that may use a database there is now a method for configuring permissions for each application installed that uses it. This makes sense. It is a function of dpkg that can be accessed through apt-get etc. as far as I understand.
I have come across this pma-configure command and I wonder if reinstalls are not working because the existing system is preventing updating of configuration files...
IDK
It is either a configuration file based permission or a file based persmission I think.
I just am not sure if the error is coming from apache2 or php via phpmyadmin via apache2 to the log... It seems to me that it is PHP throwing the error.
I originally followed a online guide to install it shortly after Bookworm was released but with no dice. It seems like this magic key phrase is no longer used:
$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'My_Secret_Passphras3!';
The original online tutorial used a passphrase generated with key generator.
The /usr/share/doc/phpmyadmin/README.Debian
states:
SECURITY
The default configuration for Debian has enabled cookie based authentication.
You should *not* put your passwords into /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php file.
This file has to be readable by www-data user, so it can be read by anyone
who can run his own CGI script!
So I wonder if I have reminantes of my key_phrase installation attempt.... Maybe I need to use pma-configure or kill the phpmyadmin daemon before running the reinstall?
This is such a bummer that this is not working for me. I will try the pma-configure thing and then reinstall and I will shut it down with systemctl and try and reinstall too. Other than that I feel like I have to literally start to figure out where in the chain of the page request things go wrong... I did not want to have to figure out the finer details of how this worked to be able to use it.
I greatly appreciate your suggestions and exact requests of what to try.
