PhpMyAdmin BlowFish

Problem: When i log into PhpMyadmin it throws me the error below.
Code: Select all
The configuration file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret).
1. I already checked other threads suggesting to chmod 777 to /var/lib/php/session it's already chmod to 777.
2. I also verfied that blowfish secret key is present , yes there are random numbers in the config files.
What else can i do to fix this problem?
OS: Centos 6.7 fresh install vesta cp.
Thank You

The VestaCP PhpMyAdmin doesn't include the file config.inc.php. Even the sample file does not exist. How do I create one?

Ok I found it. The owner of the phpmyadmin is root. I try to fix the blowfish part, but it failed to remove the message:
"The configuration file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret)."
What I did is, I change the owner of the PhpMyAdmin to the 'admin' username at /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php. Then the message dissapear. I guess I need to change everything to 'admin' ..
Thanks.

You use generator for key? -
http://www.question-defense.com/tools/p ... -generator
Code: Select all
ls -la /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5156 Apr 24 2013 /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
