I am quite new and somehow I crashed my phpMyAdmin website. It can't be displayed without errors after changing the port of it once. So does it have any effect on my databases when I reinstall my phpMyAdmin? I guess it will not change anything since it doesn't come bundled with MySQL, but I want to be sure.
Can I simply uninstall and re-install without losing any data from MySQL databases?
I use an Ubuntu 12.04 server.

There will be no impact on you running database(s) as phpMyAdmin is just a management interface.
Use:
apt-get remove phpmyadmin
Remove
/etc/phpmyadmin
config directory and check your/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
vhost files.
