Question

Maybe duplicate of this or this
but I didnt get my answer there. I want to restrict access to dedicate ip addresses (like 192.168.120.138)

I newly installed wamp server 2.0c (apache 2.2.8 & php 5.2.6 & phpmyadmin 2.11.6)
It keeps on saying

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

when I try to load "localhost/phpmyadmin"

this is my http.conf

Include "c:/wamp/alias/phpmyadmin.conf"
Include "c:/wamp/alias/*"

and this is my phpmyadmin.conf

<Directory "C:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin2.11.6">
    AllowOverride all
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.120.138
</Directory>

But I still see the forbidden msg. Please help me!

Was it helpful?

Solution

You should restart your wamp server, all services for the changes to take effect.

<Directory "C:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin2.11.6">
    AllowOverride all
    Order Allow,Deny
    Allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.120
    Deny from all
</Directory>

OTHER TIPS

If you change your phpmyadmin.conf temporarily to Allow All, can you get in? Don't forget to restart Apache after you make changes to these files to see the results.
