How to enable phpmyadmin to connect to the database remotely

First, create a remote user (the root account only allows local connections. Considering security, a remote login account is generally set up)

Use the root account to log in to mysql

#mysql -u  root  -p root的密码
mysql> GRANT ALL ON *.* TO admin@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'admin' WITH GRANT OPTION;

The meaning of this sentence is to allow any computer with an IP address (that’s what the % above means) to access this MySQL Server using the admin account and password (admin),

Then configure phpmyadmin Configuration file

vim ./phpMyAdmin/libraries/config.default.php

# is about line 125

Change $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost'

to $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'Remote database server IP address', generally localhost can be used

Now log in to phpMyAdmin on the webpage

Enter the remote database Account and password, here are admin and admin (depending on the account and password of the remote user you created in the previous step)

Enter the database of the remote server
