XAMPP中的phpMyAdmin中出现错误＃1146

Question

I did something dumb. I'd imported the create tables sql file twice. That's not the worst part however. I then proceeded to trying to drop the duplicate tables from the phpMyAdmin database. This is all that loads up when I click on phpMyAdmin now:

Error

SQL query:  Edit

SELECT `tables` 
FROM `phpmyadmin`.`pma_recent` 
WHERE `username` = '[myusername]'

MySQL said: 

#1146 - Table 'phpmyadmin.pma_recent' doesn't exist

As in, just the above on an otherwise blank, white page.

EDIT Everything returns to normal when I comment out the "Advanced Features" section in the config.inc.php file (the red exclamation signs are still beside everything, but I'm starting to wonder if that's just the default icon choice for phpMyAdmin 4.0.1). Once I uncomment them, the above returns. I've also noticed that the tables seems to be empty (maybe the reason for the exclamation signs?). Does that mean anything?

Answer 1

Check whether the tables inside phpMyAdmin database have two underscores __ after the pma prefix. If that is the case, update the entries in you config.inc.php with an additional underscore.

Answer 2

It looks like you accidentally dropped one or more of your built-in databases/tables that keep phpmyadmin running. The easiest solution is probably just to re-install XAMPP so you don't leave anything bugged by trying to do patchwork.

Just back up all of your created data.

I think specifically, you dropped the table that phpmyadmin stores your username in. Now you have no usernames stored in it and therefore you can't log into phpmyadmin.

Answer 3

I had the same problem, I'm not too sure why. Commenting out the advanced parts does work. Probably not the best way to go about it, but I'm sure that works for some people.

Answer 4

I got the same issue as you but I found a way to solve it.

from the create_tables.sql you got this:

-- Table structure for table pma_recent

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS pma__recent ( username varchar(64) NOT NULL, tables text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY ( username ) ) COMMENT='Recently accessed tables' DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin;

---

the table name (pma__recent)contents two underscore characters by default, just remove one of them and recreate all the tables again by copy/paste the script into the SQL tab for phpmyadmin window. You should do the same thing for the others table name.
