PMA Database ... not OK[ Documentation ]
General relation features Disabled

When I click the "click here" button: It take me to this section in phpmyadmin:


$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb'] string
Starting with version 2.3.0 phpMyAdmin offers a lot of features to work with
master / foreign - tables. To use those as well as the bookmark feature you
need special tables with a predefined structure, which we explain below.
If you are the only user of this phpMyAdmin installation, you can use your
current database to store those special tables; in this case, just put your
current database name in $cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb'].

If you are setting up a multi-user phpMyAdmin installation, you will need to
create a new db and setup special privileges, so, as superuser:


create a new database for phpmyadmin:
CREATE DATABASE phpmyadmin;
Note that "controluser" must have SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE privileges
on this database. Here is a query to set up those privileges (using "phpmyadmin" as
the database name, and "pma" as the controluser):
GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE ON phpmyadmin.* to 'pma'@'localhost';
do not give any other user rights on this database.
enter the databasename in $cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb']



A couple of question here:

Do I need to install anything?

Does it mean I need to create a separate database? The database I have now is called pets with one table in it. I need to add more tables, but it won't accept them.

Do I need to create a database called admin?

And I want my database to allow multiple users. Does this mean I need another database for that too?

Arrrrggghhhh!

Dear Client

Thank you for contacting iPowerweb technical support.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
Please note that linked tables are considered to be too much of a resource drain
compared to simple queries, so we have disable linked tables features.
