localhost:8080/ works well but localhost:8080/phpmyadmin won't open

Question

I am working on Windows10 and trying to access phpmyadmin from localhost. I am using xampp. I created a index.php in htdocs/webservice. The port number for apache is 8080 and mysql is 3306.

http://localhost:8080/webservice/ works fine. but http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin doesn't.

I've tried the other stackoverflow suggestions but I can't seem to find the problem..

Below is my log

Answer 1

Goto phpMyAdmin Directory inside xampp. You will find config.inc.php file. Now change this line:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';

To

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1:8080'; 

Next you have to restart your server.
