Restrict phpMyAdmin access

Limit access to your database phpMyAdmin with Apache rules

Overview

If you want to limit access to the database phpMyAdmin you can use a Apache access rule.

Configuration

  1. In the Virtuozzo PaaS GUI, select “Config” on the database node.

  2. Edit the file /conf.d/phpMyAdmin-jel.conf and make sure your <Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/> looks like this. Edit the IP to the IP that should be granted access.

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/>
     SetEnvIf X-Forwarded-For ^xxx\.xxx\.xxx\.xxx env_allow_1
     Require env env_allow_1
     Require ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
     Require all denied
</Directory>

Note: Make sure to edit the IP in the example to your desired value

  1. Restart the environment or contact support and we can reload the Apache configuration for you.
