Configuring the database console


Most of the configuration for the database console has already been done. The one thing we need to provide is a password for the database administrator. (By default, the database administrator user name is the e-mail address you use as an AppFog user name.) Passwords are sensitive information and should never be included in application source code. Thus the console application doesn't store a password in its own files. Instead it looks for the password in an environment variable named PMA_PASSWORD. To set this variable:

  1. If your web browser isn't already showing the application control panel, go to the AppFog console and click on the application name.

  2. Click on the Env Variables button on the left side of the page.

  3. The environment variables display appears. Enter PMA_PASSWORD under Name and a password under Value.

  4. Click on Update to save the variable and restart the application.
