How to configure AWS bitnami wordpress phpmyadmin?

PhpMyAdmin is a PHP script meant for giving users the ability to interact with their MySQL databases.

WordPress stores all of its information in the MySQL database and interacts with the database to generate information within your WordPress site.

In order to access phpMyAdmin on your AWS instance navigate to the IP of your instance and adding /phpmyadmin to the end of the URL or going to a control panel and clicking the phpMyAdmin logo.

Setup & Open SSH Tunnel

Firstly, we need to open up PuTTY and load our existing SSH configuration for connecting to our AWS instance.

We then need to go to Connection > SSH > Tunnels and enter the following into the two fields towards the bottom of the PuTTY screen:

• Source port: 8888
• Destination: localhost:80

Click Add to add it to the list of forwarded ports.

The tunnel is now prepared. Don’t forget to go back to the Session panel and save your configuration!

Once you’re ready, go ahead and click Open to establish the SSH connection with the tunnel.

Navigate to phpMyAdmin & Login

Now that we have the tunnel open via our SSH connection, all we need to do is navigate to phpMyAdmin by going to http://127.0.0.1:8888/phpmyadmin/

Finally, just login with the following details:

• Username: root
• Password: your Bitnami application password

You should now be logged in to phpMyAdmin where you’ll be able to view your databases, tables, user accounts and more!
