PhpMyAdmin "Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable!"

try

sudo chmod 755 /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

this command fixed the issue having on my ubuntu 14.04.

try this it will work

sudo chmod 755 /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

thanks

This is because of wrong permission of phpMyAdmin directory and the file config.inc.php

On *nix like OS set the permission of the directory and the file as follows

chmod -R 755 /path/to/phpMyAdmin
chmod 644 /path/to/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php

If like me you run a Linux Virtual Machine which mount a Windows folder where phpMyAdmin sources are located, edit config.inc.php and add this line

$cfg['CheckConfigurationPermissions'] = false;
