Many operating systems already include a phpMyAdmin package and will automatically keep it updated, however these versions are sometimes slightly outdated and therefore may be missing the latest features. Additionally, the configuration process varies widely by package and may not adhere to the official phpMyAdmin documentation. That being said, it is usually the quickest way to an updated installation. Please contact your OS vendor for more information. Some additional information is also available further down on this page. If you just want to try phpMyAdmin in virtual machine, you might want to check available software appliances which provide phpMyAdmin.
If you do not have a package available or desire to install your own phpMyAdmin, you can download one of following source packages. Please note that phpMyAdmin requires at least PHP 5.2 and MySQL 5.
Released Thu, 03 May 2012 16:40:51 GMT, see release notes for details.
