So recently, I was working over project and was customizing the drupal distribution for ERP solutions. All was going smoothly till I ran into a big trouble
My “phpmyadmin” was not working!!
I started looking for answer, which ranges from clearing my browser cache history, to restarting Apache, but none worked!!
Then finally I decided to look into the deeper aspect of the problem, and came up with this solution,
1. Open your terminal [ CTRL + ALT + T]
2. Go to the following directory
$: cd /etc/php5/apache2
3. Now open the file php.ini in your text editor, in my case it’s emacs!
$: sudo emacs -nw php.ini
4. Now edit the following line into your file, it was commented in my case
;session.save_path = “/N;PATH”
Changing it to
session.save_path = “/tmp” [uncommenting it]
5. Save the file and restart apache
AND VOILA! This successfully helped me to restart my phpmyadmin.
P.s In some cases it might still won’t work, please clear your browser’s cache after restarting your Apache server.
