Phpmyadmin isn't working?

Question

~~I installed Apache2 and PHP with success, but when I want visit http://localhost/phpmyadmin I got the following error:~~

Not Found

The requested URL /phpmyadmin was not found on this server.

Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80

How can I fix this, because I need it working before I can continue.

Edit:
Now I have a new error:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin on this server.

Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80

Does localhost work? That is, a simple php file in localhost? — Parto, Jun 01 '14 at 17:05

You're running 14.04 right? If so, try running this command: `sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/phpmyadmin` — Parto, Jun 01 '14 at 17:15
That's simple to fix - see [this question](http://askubuntu.com/questions/19898/whats-the-simplest-way-to-edit-and-add-files-to-var-www) though for your case it will be `/var/www/html` — Parto, Jun 01 '14 at 17:55

Does [Forbidden :You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin on this server](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23235363/forbidden-you-dont-have-permission-to-access-phpmyadmin-on-this-server) (on [Stack Overflow](http://stackoverflow.com)) help with this? There's also [Help with LAMP sever](http://askubuntu.com/q/64183/22949) here on Ask Ubuntu, which might be relevant. — Eliah Kagan, Jul 24 '14 at 00:02

If you used the command...

sudo apt-get install lamp-server

phpMyAdmin will not automatically install.

You need to run:

sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin

And for future reference, I install lamp servers using this command:

sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ phpmyadmin

I tried that already, but not helping. – Korkel Jun 01 '14 at 16:50
Is phpmyadmin.conf in /etc/apache2/conf-available? this might be a dumb question.. but when you go to http://localhost/ does anything come up? – Dan Jun 01 '14 at 16:51
In Localhost yes, I added already something. How do I chek? – Korkel Jun 01 '14 at 16:54
sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ phpmyadmin command solved my problem. – Kabir Hossain Jan 25 '15 at 10:43

I did the following to fix it:

sudo apt-get purge phpmyadmin -y

Followed by:

sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin -y

Now I can access http://localhost/phpmyadmin/
