Cannot enable mySQL in Virtual Server

Hi everyone, It has been a while since I used Webmin/Virtualmin and I finally have a chance to use it again! I've searched for this topic both in the forums and on google to no avail, I'm sorry if it has been asked before.

I have a CentOS 7.2.1511 server running up2date WM/VM 1.770 and 4.18.gpl respectively.

As I recall, when I was using VirtualMin before I could enable disable mySQL per virtual server. Now I don't see this anymore. The options in the screenshot linked below are the only ones I have.

My SQL is available and has databases. I have changed the admin passwd and connected to the cli.

I first noticed this when I tried to run the phpMyAdmin installation script and got the "virtual server does not meet its requirements : phpMyAdmin requires a MySQL database" message.

I'm sorry if I am just overlooking something silly but I appreciate any response.

Thanks, Scott

Howdy,

Yup, it should normally be there!

What user are you logging in as?

I'm curious if you see the option when logged in as root.

Hi Eric, I tried that as well, with the same results. Just to show I'm not totally loopy, here is what I see after creating a DB:

 mysql -u root -p
Enter password:

Howdy,

Oh, I meant when logging into Virtualmin... when doing that, do you then see a MySQL Database option in Edit Virtual Server -> Enabled Features?

If so, try enabling that when you're logged in as root.

Hi Eric,

I was logged into Webmin as root when I saw the missing option.

Thank you, Scott

Still cannot manage MySql even though when validating server (both validating all and selecting mysql) there are no errors reported.

Any ideas? Anyone?
