Install problem with phpMyAdmin as a companion application

[LenR]

I always install phpMyAdmin on my zabbix systems as a companion app. I use some RHEL flavor and older versions had phpMyAdmin on EPEL, so install was pretty easy. That doesn't seem to be the case, so I downloaded the latest zip file and used those install procedures. I get nothing but a blank screen, code is 200, but no contents.

Environment is a VULTR Rocky Linux release 8.6 (Green Obsidian), Zabbix 6.0.6, php 7.2.24, phpMyAdmin 5.2.0 Of course the Zabbix php app is working. I put a phpinfo() file in the /usr/share/phpmyadmin directory and it loads so it's not access lists. I haven't found any related error messages in any logs.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I think I found it, it has something to do with the config.inc.php TempDir setting. I was following instructions that installed via unzip that added that option pointing to /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp, then creating that directory. I don't see a permissions error, but I wonder if it has something to do with php-fpm needing permissions or something. Changing it to just /tmp works.

Thanks

1. Try running php /phpMyAdmin_FOLDER/index.php in CLI, you'll get an error right there.
2. clear browser cache

Running php from CLI returns nothing, so I guess that is what the browser sees too.

Clearing cache didn't matter either.
