clean install of 7.3.8 - lots of errors

Postby troypiggo » 10. August 2019 10:08

Hi there. Have done a clean install of 7.3.8 on Win10. Getting a lot of errors. Apache and MariaDB start fine, and can access the localhost/phpmyadmin page, however there's lots of red messages about
mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'pma'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
on the front page. I solved this by changing user pma to root in config.inc.php

I am also getting this error message if I try to click on the databases
#1932 - Table 'phpmyadmin.pma__tracking' doesn't exist in engine
Any ideas on solving this one?

I can confirm this.

It is recommend not to use the XAMPP versions including MariaDB 10.3 up to the point the database corruption issue is solved.
So i would recommend to use XAMPP 7.3.5 instead.

For what it is worth, phpmyadmin will not run on my clean install. The pma user is missing from mysql.

Win10 clean install of 7.3.8 (running as administrator)
Open control panel (as administrator) and started apache and mysql.
From a command log into mysql
Code: Select all
\xampp\mysql\bin\mysql.exe -u root

then checked the mysql.user table for a pma user
Code: Select all
select distinct user from mysql.user ;

The only user in there is root.
Code: Select all
+------+
| user |
+------+
| root |
+------+

1 row in set (0.000 sec)

On an older installation I have (7.1.11), there is a pma user that was set up by the intallation process.

Also confirm this occurs after a clean install of 7.3.8, without doing anything further like restoring backed up db's etc.

This is more than just the occasional errors from Mariadb that has been reported earlier. Would it not be prudent to pull the 7.3.8 release completely?

Another suggestion - could the new releases include an older (safe) version of Mariadb?
