Yeah, already have fresh ideas, but we need time to gerenerate those ;-)

/usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.sample.inc.php - check this file, rename file, check blowfish inside and check your phpmyadmin.

Try to add config there and check again, please.

Hi again,

Here's what i did i made a copy of my config file from /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php then paste it to /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/

i tried to refresh still the same , even rebooted my server.

Update: After reading some tutorials online is it possible i have to do this too ?

After the packages had been installed you need to enable some PHP extensions (mysqli.so, mcrypt.so – for internal authentication) and you can, also, enable other modules for needed for future CMS platforms like openssl.so, imap.so or iconv.so etc.

$ sudo nano /etc/php/php.ini
Locate and uncomment the above extensions.

extension=mcrypt.so
extension=mssql.so
extension=mysqli.so
extension=openssl.so
extension=iconv.so
extension=imap.so
extension=zip.so
extension=bz2.so

Also, on same file, search and locate open_basedir statement and add PhpMyAdmin system path (/etc/webapps/ and /usr/share/webapps/) to make sure PHP can access and read files under those directories (If you, also, change Virtual Hosts DocumentRoot path from /srv/http/ to another location you need to append the new path here too).

The one in bold, i checked my php.ini so far when i search my server there are 3 php.ini

find / -name php.ini
/usr/local/vesta/php/lib/php.ini
/usr/local/vesta/src/rpm/conf/php.ini
/etc/php.ini

i checked the line with open base dir as suggested above: mine is empty

; open_basedir, if set, limits all file operations to the defined directory
; and below. This directive makes most sense if used in a per-directory
; or per-virtualhost web server configuration file. This directive is
; *NOT* affected by whether Safe Mode is turned On or Off.
; http://php.net/open-basedir
;open_basedir =

Do i need to alter the open_basedir=?

Another clue: Anything that i add at my config file doesnt take effect, example i add : $cfg['ForceSSL'] = true; it doesnt work. IT seems like its not being able to read it at all.

I got rid of the blowfish message by running this command (Centos 6.7)

chown -R admin phpMyAdmin

in the directory

/etc/

This is the type of stuff that needs to be fixed in VestaCp to make it a real contender.

Just an update re Blowfish. Seems the latest Vesta install on CentOS 6.x is generating the "blowfish password is too short". If you see that then:

Log in to SSH

cd /etc/phpMyAdmin

vi config.inc.php

Locate following line: $cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'xxxxxxxx' (where xxxxxx is a random set of characters). You need to create a bunch of 32 random characters or use the below website to randomly generate it for you:
http://www.passwordtool.hu/blowfish-pas ... -generator

Press "INS" key to allow modification to the file and position your cursor over the existing characters and now enter your 32 random characters over the existing characters.

Press "ESC" key twice. Press ":" now enter "x" and press enter. You have now saved your file and you should now refresh the www.myserver.com/phpmyadmin website and login without the blowfish error message.
