[phpmyadmin] Access to the requested object is only available from the local network phpmyadmin

I just installed xampp 1.8.0 for linux and when I opened phpmyadmin I got this error Access Forbidden!!

New XAMPP security concept:

Access to the requested object is only available from the local network.

This setting can be configured in the file "httpd-xampp.conf".

I tried this post but with no luck. please help. I am opening it from my own PC not from any other network.

Don't forget to restart your XAMPP Server

Update the accepted answer :

now you need to comment Require local

#
# New XAMPP security concept
#
<LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
        #Require local
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var

I newer version of xampp you may use another method first open your httpd-xampp.conf file and find the string "phpmyadmin" using ctrl+F command (Windows). and then replace this code

Alias /phpmyadmin "D:/server/phpMyAdmin/"
<Directory "D:/server/phpMyAdmin">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Require local
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</Directory>

with this

Alias /phpmyadmin "D:/server/phpMyAdmin/"
<Directory "D:/server/phpMyAdmin">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Require all granted
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</Directory>

Don't Forget to Restart your Xampp.

Nothing worked for me but following thing was awesome:

1) Open

httpd-xampp.conf

which is at

/opt/lampp/etc/extra/

2) Find <Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin">

3) Now just add Require all granted before

4) So the code will look like this
<Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin"> AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit Order allow,deny Allow from all Require all granted </Directory>

5) Now finally Restart the xampp with this command /opt/lampp/lampp restart

That's it and you are Done!

It also work with xampp. :)

On Xampp 5.6.3 Windows Path C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf comment in this: #Require local

New XAMPP security concept ... #Require local ...

If you see below error message, when try into phpyAdmin:

New XAMPP security concept:
Access to the requested directory is only available from the local network.
This setting can be configured in the file "httpd-xampp.conf".

You can do next (for XAMPP, deployed on the UNIX-system): You can try change configuration for <Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin">

# vi /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf

and change security settings to

#LoadModule perl_module        modules/mod_perl.so

<Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Require all granted
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</Directory>

First - comment pl module, second - change config for node Directory. After it, you should restart httpd daemon

# /opt/lampp/xampp restart

Now you can access http://[server_ip]/phpmyadmin/

Hey, use these section of code.

Path for xampp is: apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf

 <LocationMatch "^/(?i:(?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))">
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
        #Allow from ::1 127.0.0.0/8 \
             #      fc00::/7 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16 \
               #    fe80::/10 169.254.0.0/16

        ErrorDocument 403 /error/HTTP_XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
    </LocationMatch>

Not need to change all config in file /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf. The only thing you need to change is the Require local It's kinda obvious what Require local means so just change to Require all granted Require all granted

Solution

from Require local to Require all granted

on osx log into your terminal and execute

sudo nano /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf

and replace

<Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
    Require local
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</Directory>

with this

<Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Require all granted
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
</Directory>

and then restart apache and mysql

or use this command

 /opt/lampp/xampp restart

after putting "Allow from all", you need to restart your xampp to apply the setting. thanks
