[SOLVED] phpmyadmin error: The configuration file now needs a secret

If newly installed phpMyAdmin dont working because of a blowfish error,
open file /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

nano -w /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

and add anything to this line:
$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = '';
like
$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'thing';
after saving phpMyAdmin should work.

If you dont prefer cookie auth (which I'd prefer), changing
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie'; line to $cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'http'; is probable.
