Ubuntu 22 - Fresh install from apt include_path problem?

[terraping]

Ubuntu 22.04.2
Apache 2.3.52
PHP 8.1.2

PHP Warning: require_once(PhpMyAdmin/MoTranslator/autoload.php): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/share/phpmyadmin/autoload.php on line 2 PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Failed opening required 'PhpMyAdmin/MoTranslator/autoload.php' (include_path='.') in /usr/share/phpmyadmin/autoload.php:2\nStack trace:\n#0 /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/common.inc.php(95): require_once()\n#1 /usr/share/phpmyadmin/index.php(15): require_once('...')\n#2 {main}\n thrown in /usr/share/phpmyadmin/autoload.php on line 2

'php -r "echo get_include_path();"
.:/usr/share/php
'

Seems like I am overlooking something simple but I have checked and rechecked everything I can find in the wiki and previous issues. Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi @terraping

That's weird but looks similar to #17957

How did you install the package ?
Only apt install ?

You should try to install the version from our PPA, it's more up to date. But the packaging it the same.

Ref: Wiki for install methods on Ubuntu/Debian

Yes from the apt install. I just tried installing manually by unzipping the latest stable release into /var/www/html and it works fine this way. Strange, but I am ok with this solution. Thanks!

Well, it looks like doing it this way did not create a database user or the phpmyadmin database, so to save work I ended up deleting that and using this method that somehow I missed before.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phpmyadmin/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin

I prefer this so that it can be automatically updated in the future. This seems to have worked perfectly other than the default user 'phpmyadmin' does not have privileges to create databases, easy enough to fix that.

Thanks for the feedback, I think we can agree it's solved

Also I would want to say that in your backtrace it said (include_path='.') and that's a different value than for the CLI.

And it's probably solved because the package has an open_basedir for PHP 8 now
But it's most probably because this fix was not present on the package you used from Ubuntu.

I think it was that 🤔

Hi @utkarsh2102
Do you think I could port into Ubuntu 22 this fix: https://salsa.debian.org/phpmyadmin-team/phpmyadmin/-/commit/094c74e2d59edd772bd1a07254c4aa7f0e1a80c8 ?
