Summary

phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of

MySQL over the World Wide Web. Most frequently used operations are supported

by the user interface (managing databases, tables, fields, relations, indexes,

users, permissions), while you still have the ability to directly execute any

SQL statement.

Features include an intuitive web interface, support for most MySQL features

(browse and drop databases, tables, views, fields and indexes, create, copy,

drop, rename and alter databases, tables, fields and indexes, maintenance

server, databases and tables, with proposals on server configuration, execute,

edit and bookmark any SQL-statement, even batch-queries, manage MySQL users

and privileges, manage stored procedures and triggers), import data from CSV

and SQL, export data to various formats: CSV, SQL, XML, PDF, OpenDocument Text

and Spreadsheet, Word, Excel, LATEX and others, administering multiple servers,

creating PDF graphics of your database layout, creating complex queries using

Query-by-example (QBE), searching globally in a database or a subset of it,

transforming stored data into any format using a set of predefined functions,

like displaying BLOB-data as image or download-link and much more...

Upstream announcement: **phpMyAdmin 4.9.2 is released** 2019-11-22 Welcome to

phpMyAdmin 4.9.2, a bugfix release that also contains a security fix. This

security fix is part of an ongoing effort to improve the security of the

Designer feature and is designated **PMASA-2019-5**. There is also an

improvement for how we sanitize Git version information shown on the home page,

thanks to Ali Hubail. This release includes fixes for many bugs, including: *

Fixes for the "Failed to set session cookie" error which relates to the cookie

name. In some cases, data stored in the cookie (such as the previously-used user

account) may not be loaded from a previous phpMyAdmin cookie the first time you

run version 4.9.2 * Fix for Advisor with MySQL 8.0.3 and newer * Fix PHP

deprecation errors * Fix a situation where exporting users after a delete

query could remove users * Fix incorrect "You do not have privileges to

manipulate with the users!" warning * Fix copying a database's privileges and

several other problems moving columns with MariaDB * Fix for phpMyAdmin not

selecting all the values when using shift-click to select during Export There

are many, many more bug fixes thanks to the efforts of our developers and other

contributors. The phpMyAdmin team
