phpmyadmin automatic logout time
Changing php.ini will change the session duration for all the websites running on the server. To change it just for PhpMyAdmin, open config.inc.php
and add:
$sessionDuration = 60*60*24*7; // 60*60*24*7 = one weekini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', $sessionDuration);$cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] = $sessionDuration;
In PHPMyAdmin 4 this no longer appears in the config.inc.php file. Instead go to PHPMyAdmin in your browser. Ensure you are at the localhost level to see the Settings link. Then set Settings > Features > Change the value of 'Login cookie validity' > Save
Create or edit your php.ini
file and set this variable value in it:
session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440
The integer is in seconds. 500000 seconds is 5.7 days. Then restart apache.
