[MYSQL] Change Database Directory for PHPMyAdmin

[skt32]

Goodmorning everyone,
I have a problem with a XAMPP's installation. I am working on a management software inside the office and then I installed XAMPP and I started working in PHP + MySQL for the creation of this management software.
However, I need to share the database we are working on with a colleague and I only have a shared folder where I would like to move the database.
We work both with different XAMPP installation
I would like to tell phpmyadmin that the two computers that have to work on the tables, go and get the database in "X" folder.

Can you help me?
I am not an administrator of the computer where I work
I have already modified the my.ini file in the etc / xampp / mysql / data path but it does not work equally:

Code: Select all

[mysqld]
datadir = MY SHARED DIRECTORY
[client]


I thank you infinitely.

PS. Sorry for my English.

phpmyadmin does not access the database by folder, it connects to it by ip and port.

That is the prefered method too if you want to share a database.
Don't share the data folder and try to manage it with two MariaDB instances.

Is not working, we have a possibility to change the path where phpmyadmin gets the db?

Phpmyadmin doesn't care about paths

No.

Tell us more precisely, what you tried and which error occurred.
