Requirements
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Web server
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Since, phpMyAdmin's interface is based entirely in your browser, you'll need a
|
|
web server (such as Apache, :term:`IIS`) to install phpMyAdmin's files into.
|
|
|
|
PHP
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
* You need PHP 5.3.0 or newer, with ``session`` support, the Standard PHP Library
|
|
(SPL) extension, JSON support, and the ``mbstring`` extension.
|
|
|
|
* To support uploading of ZIP files, you need the PHP ``zip`` extension.
|
|
|
|
* You need GD2 support in PHP to display inline thumbnails of JPEGs
|
|
("image/jpeg: inline") with their original aspect ratio.
|
|
|
|
* When using the cookie authentication (the default), the `mcrypt
|
|
<http://www.php.net/mcrypt>`_ extension is strongly suggested.
|
|
|
|
* To support upload progress bars, see :ref:`faq2_9`.
|
|
|
|
* To support XML and Open Document Spreadsheet importing, you need the
|
|
`libxml <http://www.php.net/libxml>`_ extension.
|
|
|
|
* To support reCAPTCHA on the login page, you need the
|
|
`openssl <http://www.php.net/openssl>`_ extension.
|
|
|
|
* Performance suggestion: install the ``ctype`` extension.
|
|
|
|
.. seealso:: :ref:`faq1_31`, :ref:`authentication_modes`
|
|
|
|
Database
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
phpMyAdmin supports MySQL-compatible databases.
|
|
|
|
* MySQL 5.5 or newer
|
|
* MariaDB 5.5 or newer
|
|
* Drizzle
|

|
enabled.
