hi there. i'm an ubuntu newbie. just installed it as a vm. trying to follow instructions on installing phpmyadmin. (http://www.distrogeeks.com/how-to-install-phpmyadmin-in-ubuntu-12-04/)
But when i try to go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin
it fails with:
Not Found

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


I tried to see if i have it installed by typing the command:


dpkg --get-selections | grep php

and i do see phpmyadmin in the result set.
i tried to restart apache but that didn't make a difference either. (By the way, apache is working because i made a test php page and ran it and it works just fine...)

any suggestions?

Thanks.

Try to reconfigure apache2.. make sure the astrix (*) is placed at the [ ] apache2 by pressing enter (I made that mistake myself)

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow phpmyadmin

If that doesn't work check out this (http://help.ubuntu.com/community/phpMyAdmin) website or try a complete reïnstall of LAMP.

I accidentally typed "by pressing enter" it should be "by pressing spacebar"
