phpMyAdmin 403 resolution
« on: January 02, 2016, 11:04:02 AM »
I see some people had 403 errors with phpMyAdmin after enabling mod_security. Thankfully you can disable it per URL with a simple config file. You'll need to create the file and restart httpd after you've created it.

Create file '/usr/local/apache/modsecurity-crs/base_rules/00_custom_exclude.conf' and put the following code in it :

Code: [Select]
<LocationMatch /phpMyAdmin/>
 <IfModule mod_security2.c>
  SecRuleEngine Off
 </IfModule>
</LocationMatch>

then do "service httpd restart" and you'll be able to use phpMyAdmin with no issues. You can add more rules here on a per folder/file, IP or domain basis by following the guide at the Atomic Secured Linux website : http://www.atomicorp.com/wiki/index.php/Mod_security

Thanks I was facing this issue since a week and I was getting nuts. Your solution worked and now phpmyadmin works flawlessly.
