In addition to the package installation, the One-Click also:
1- Enables the UFW firewall to allow only SSH (port 22
, rate limited), HTTP (port 80
), and HTTPS (port 443
), and MySQL (3306
) access.
2- Sets the MySQL root password and runs mysql_secure_installation
.
3- Sets the phpMyAdmin admin password.
4- Sets up the debian-sys-maint
user in MySQL so the system’s init scripts for MySQL will work without requiring the MySQL root
user password.
After you create a phpMyAdmin One-Click VM:
1- You can access phpMyAdmin immediately by visiting the VM’s IP address in your browser followed by /phpmyadmin
.
2- You can log into the VM root using either the password emailed to you or with an SSH key if you added one during creation.
3- The MySQL root password and phpMyAdmin admin password are in /root/.digitalocean_password
.
4- You can get information about the PHP installation by logging into the VM and running php -i
.
