There is no need to make the symlink in /var/www/ folder. When you install phpmyadmin just configure it to use with apache2. That is, select apache2 when it asks to configure itself during installation. It will then create a file 'phpmyadmin' in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ folder which will locate where your phpmyadmin is. And you will automatically find phpmyadmin in the location http://localhost/phpmyadmin. This is the proper way to install it. Also, the easiest and the proper way to install web server (LAMP) in Ubuntu is: Open Synaptic Package Manager. Select Edit > Mark Packages by Tasks Select LAMP server. Click OK. At last click Apply. All the required dependencies will be automatically installed. You don't have to remember which apache or php or mysql package to install. Cheers, Nasim -- M.
