phpMyAdmin Export Problem.

phpMyAdmin-3.3.10-5.3.noarch
mysql 5.1.53
PHP 5.3.5
Apache2-2.2.17

For the last several weeks when ever I do an export of my database tables,
I get the following message:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN”

href="./Documentation.html#faqmissingparameters" target=“documentation”>
(FAQ 2.8)</a><br /></p></body></html>

My question is about the missing parameters. “What” and “export type”.
before have not changed how I do an export, they have worked for years.
The compatibility mode is “None” and Export type is “Insert”. I don’t
remember seeing these before I update to phpMyAdmin-3.3.10. I think i
started getting this error after upgrading to 3.3.10 thru YaST. I have
also tryed 3.4.x from factory but it would not start so I went back to
3.3.10. I have also noticed this version has a link from
/srv/www/htdocs/phpMyAdmin/config.sample.inc.php to
/etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php, is this correct?

I looked at the FAQ 2.8 but it was no help. I have reinstalled phpmyadmin,
but not MySQl, PHP5 or Apache2. I still have a backup of phpmyadmin 3.3.4
which I could install. Bugzilla only has two phpmyadmin bugs. Don’t appear
related.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Thanks for any pointer, help etc.

My guess is you have some file from the old version left behind and messing things up. Try deleting the package, and also manually removing everything in /srv/www/htdocs/phpMyAdmin, then reinstalling.

I reinstalled phpmyadmin (3.3.10) and upgraded PHP to 5.3.5-5, and KDE to
4.6.4 release “8”. Also updates to Qt4 (4.7), Not sure which fixed it but
things are now back to normal.
