phpmyadmin error processing request 200

Question

I changed my Wamp's phpmyadmin config.inc.php file few days ago for auto authentication. Phpmyadmin was working fine but now whenever I click anywhere in phpmyadmin it's giving me this error in popup:

Error in processing request

Error code: 200

Error text: OK

This is my config.inc.php file:

Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

Answer 1

In my case, I used wrong url to access phpMyAdmin. I typed wrong url but it showed phpMyAdmin page.. hm..

Answer 2

Maybe it's a URL issue.
When you use this URL it may raise this issue https://localhost//phpmyadmin/

Instead try this URL to open your Mysql http://localhost/phpmyadmin/

Answer 3

I experienced the same. It turns out that I had blocked cookies in my browser. Enabling cookies worked for me.

Answer 4

setting $cfg['Lang'] = ''; in config.inc.php worked for me!

Answer 5

I had this problem, now I just run on Incognito Mode / Private Window, and it works fine.

Answer 6

my problem was solved by :- ENABLING COOKIES FOR LOCALHOST

Answer 7

Changing the following line in phpmyadmin/config.inc.php worked for me. from
//$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; to
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';

Now I have a language problem in phpmyadmin to fix.

Answer 8

Instead of checking my whole config file to check for errors, I just deleted it (backed-up first, of course) and run the /setup script to generate a new config.inc.php file.

Problem solved. None of the above answers helped me. But thanks anyway!

Answer 9

I don't know what was the problem, but I changed memory_limit to -1 in php.ini file. And now the problem is fixed :)

Answer 10

This is a working phpmyadmin.conf file. This will make phpMyAdmin throw you a login screen rather than use a hard coded userid/password

/*
 * Servers configuration
 */
$i = 0;

/*
 * First server
 */
$i++;
/* Authentication type */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'mysql wampserver';
//$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';
/* Server parameters */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'tcp';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['compress'] = false;
/* Select mysql if your server does not have mysqli */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] = 'mysqli';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;

I suggest you return the php.ini memory_limit to

memory_limit = 128M

If you actually need more memory allocated to phpMyAdmin then you should change the \wamp\alias\phpmyadmin.conf file where you will find these PHP settings that will be applied to only phpMyAdmin

  php_admin_value upload_max_filesize 128M
  php_admin_value post_max_size 128M
  php_admin_value max_execution_time 360
  php_admin_value max_input_time 360
