Apache Friends Support Forum

hello
It is irritating when I have to enter the password each time after a longer coffee brake.
I have looked through the forum but no solution was found.

Simply, how to extend the period and set it up to more then 1800 seconds?

I edited the phpmyadmin/config.inc but I do not have a line with a number '1800'. So, what and where shall I change?

Thanks a lot


PS
I use XAMPP for Windows Version 1.7.1

Simply add the setting:

• Open your \phpMyAdmin\config.inc.php
• Search for the blowfish_secret key line
• Below add the line

  Code: Select all

  $cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] = 3600;

• save the file
• clear your cookies
