    Can't get phpMyAdmin to work on Server 2008 R2

    I just installed Windows Server 2008 R2 and got IIS fully installed.  I installed the following:

    • MySQL 5.1.40 (community)
    • PHP 5.3.0
    • phpMyAdmin 3.2.3

    I created the phpMyAdmin config.inc.php as described on my blog (which I've used on several occasions):

    http://dpotter.net/Technical/2009/03/installing-phpmyadmin-on-windows-and-iis-60/

    I am able to navigate to my phpmyadmin URL and I get the login page.  However, after waiting about 30 seconds, the following page is displayed:

     

    Internet Information Services 7.5

    Error Summary

    HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error

    The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.

    Detailed Error Information
    Module FastCgiModule
    Notification ExecuteRequestHandler
    Handler PHP_via_FastCGI
    Error Code 0x00000000
    Requested URL http://localhost:80/phpmyadmin/index.php
    Physical Path C:\inetpub\wwwroot\phpMyAdmin\index.php
    Logon Method Anonymous
    Logon User Anonymous
    Most likely causes:
    • IIS received the request; however, an internal error occurred during the processing of the request. The root cause of this error depends on which module handles the request and what was happening in the worker process when this error occurred.
    • IIS was not able to access the web.config file for the Web site or application. This can occur if the NTFS permissions are set incorrectly.
    • IIS was not able to process configuration for the Web site or application.
    • The authenticated user does not have permission to use this DLL.
    • The request is mapped to a managed handler but the .NET Extensibility Feature is not installed.
    Things you can try:
    • Ensure that the NTFS permissions for the web.config file are correct and allow access to the Web server's machine account.
    • Check the event logs to see if any additional information was logged.
    • Verify the permissions for the DLL.
    • Install the .NET Extensibility feature if the request is mapped to a managed handler.
    • Create a tracing rule to track failed requests for this HTTP status code. For more information about creating a tracing rule for failed requests, click here.
    Links and More InformationThis error means that there was a problem while processing the request. The request was received by the Web server, but during processing a fatal error occurred, causing the 500 error.

    Hi,

    I used below configuration:

    • MYSQL 5.1.39 (community version and Essential)
    • phpMyAdmin 3.2.3
    • PHP 5.2.11
    • Windows 2k8 R2

    I was able to install phpMyAdmin properly and the site is running well. I can login with my MySQL credentials and can manage all the database. I also tried with PHP 5.3 and it worked with that too.

    I am not sure why you are getting into this. Can you tell more please.

    Thanks,

    Don.

    BTW, I tried exactly similar configuration with PHP 5.2.11 on Vista SP2 too. And it works there too.

    Thanks,

    Don.

    Re: Can't get phpMyAdmin to work on Server 2008 R2

    This problem turned out to be that I had not enabled TCP networking on MySQL as a security measure.  I uninstalled and reinstalled everything, this time enabling networking and it worked.

    Thanks for the help.
