phpMyAdmin Linode
The free open source web application phpMyAdmin offers a GUI for managing MySQL databases, giving you a useful and efficient alternative to using the MySQL command line client. Although phpmyadmin is not pre-configured on Linodes, we can still install it by using a command that looks like one of the following in the package manager of the distribution:
sudo apt -y install phpmyadmin #Debian/Ubuntu systems
sudo yum -y install phpmyadmin #RedHat/CentOS systemsBy going to Linode’s IP address and then typing /phpmyadmin, we can access the phpMyAdmin dashboard after the installation is complete.
The phpMyAdmin login information should never be entered over an HTTP connection. Therefore, we must make the phpMyAdmin dashboard accessible via HTTPS.
