Mysql – phptheadmin – Forbidden – You don’t have permission to access /phptheadmin/ on this server

apachecentosMySQLphpmyadmin

I'm aware this has been asked many times before but all of the answers seem the same and none of them work for me.

I want to access the phpmyadmin GUI from something other than the localhost.

I'm getting the error "Forbidden – You don't have permission to access /phpmyadmin/ on this server." in the browser.

I'm using CentOS7, Apache 2.4.6 and phpMyAdmin-4.4.15.10-1.el7.

I've tried this:

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/>
  Order Allow,deny
  Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/setup/>
  Order Allow,deny
  Allow from all
</Directory>

Most people seem to suggest I can just do:

<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
    # Apache 2.4
    <RequireAny>
        Require all granted
    </RequireAny>
</IfModule>

Or:

<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
    # Apache 2.4
    <RequireAny>
        Require ip 192.168.1.6
    </RequireAny>
</IfModule>

But none of that works.

This is the current state:

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/>
   AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

   <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
     # Apache 2.4
     <RequireAny>
       Require ip 192.168.1.6
       Require ip ::1
     </RequireAny>
   </IfModule>
   <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
     # Apache 2.2
     Order Allow,Deny
     Allow from All
     Allow from 127.0.0.1
     Allow from ::1
   </IfModule>
</Directory>

Still getting:

Forbidden

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

EDIT-

Just as additional information, I have disabled SELinux and made sure permissions on /usr/share/phpMyAdmin are correct.

EDIT AGAIN-

I've now tried this…

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/>
        Require all granted
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/setup/>
        Require all granted
</Directory>

Which is surely as basic as you can get and yet I still get the error?
