phpMyAdmin 4.6.0-rc1 is released

2016-02-29

The phpMyAdmin team is pleased to announce release candidate version 4.6.0-rc1.

Notable changes since 4.6.0-alpha1 include security fixes and fixes to parsing of certain queries with the SQL parser library.

phpMyAdmin 4.6.0 will be a regular maintenance release including over 35 improvements. Please note that this release ends support for old versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer, which are no longer supported by Microsoft. There is a new configuration directive, $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify'] which is useful in some cases with self-signed certificates. The ForceSSL and PmaAbsoluteUri configuration directives have been removed (the functions of both of these should better be handled by the webserver than the application).

A complete list of new features and bugs that have been fixed is available in the ChangeLog file or changelog.php included with this release.

There are many more improvements; please refer to the ChangeLog for full details.
