I had the same problem for days until I noticed (how could I look at it and not read the code :-(..) that config.inc.php is calling config-db.php

** MySql Server version: 5.7.5-m15
** Apache/2.4.10 (Ubuntu)
** phpMyAdmin 4.2.9.1deb0.1

/etc/phpmyadmin/config-db.php:

$dbuser='yourDBUserName';
$dbpass='';
$basepath='';
$dbname='phpMyAdminDBName';
$dbserver='';
$dbport='';
$dbtype='mysql';

Here you need to define your username, password, dbname and others that are showing empty' use default unless you changed their configuration. That solved the issue for me.
U hope it helps you.

I found that the new version of PhpMyAdmin put the  config inc php  files in   var lib phpmyadmin   I spend much time in the wrong dir   usr share  as this is where all the files also is located  but changes are not reflected   After putting my settings in    var lib phpmyadmin config inc php   They worked

Have a look at config sample inc php  you will find examples of the configuration directives that you should copy to your config inc php  copy the missing ones   Then  have a look at examples create tables sql which will help you create the missing tables   The complete documentation for this is available at http   docs phpmyadmin net en latest setup html phpmyadmin-configuration-storage
