I'm desperately trying to get phpmyadmin access on xampp for linux 1.8.0 for ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I know this is a common problem, but I have tried many threads across the web, and I am still stuck getting it going.
Xampp seems to be running ok, localhost start page good, including link to phpmyadmin in the sidebar. When I follow that link I get a 403 error:
Access forbidden!
New XAMPP security concept:
Access to the requested directory is only available from the local network.
This setting can be configured in the file "httpd-xampp.conf".
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 403
localhost Apache/2.4.2 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.1c PHP/5.4.4
I have tried numerous things, including amending httpd-xampp.conf, the relevant bits of which now look like: http://pastebin.com/J4f4tNVs
my /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php looks like: http://pastebin.com/5PZPXK5s
Following other instructions I changed ownership of /lampp with:
chown -Rv nobody:root ./lampp/*
Please help me!
Thanks, Matt

To access phpMyAdmin from XAMPP you will need to make sure you have Apache and MySQL running in the XAMPP control panel by clicking the start buttons under the Actions column. If Apache and MySQL are green then all is well. Then you can click the “Admin” button in the MySQL row and that will launch phpMyAdmin.
So open your XAMPP folder and find a file named xampp-control.exe. right-click on this file and Select Properties a tab will open like and select Compatibility and check “Run this program as an administrator” and click on the Ok button. So, we solve XAMPP server error xampp-control.
“We are almost done to fix localhost/phpmyadmin” Step 6: Again go to config and select “Apache (httpd-sss. conf)“. Step 8: Find “” and replace this with “” and again save it. Step 9: Go to config and select “service & ports settings” and change the port to 8080 and 4433 and save it.
I've found a solution here: http://www.apachefriends.org/f/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=50902&p=196185#p196185
Edit /opt/lampp/etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf and adding Require all granted line at bottom of block <Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin"> to have the following code:
<Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin">
AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
