How to connect to phpMyAdmin for your server MySQL database: stop the server, install phpMyAdmin from the Mod Manager, get your database details, then press the phpMyAdmin button and log in.
Games with a MySQL database, such as Arma 2 DayZ Epoch, keep player and world data in it. phpMyAdmin lets you browse and edit that database straight from your browser, with no extra software on your PC.
How to connect to phpMyAdmin
- Stop your server.
- Install phpMyAdmin from Mod Manager inside the Tools section.
- Get your database details from the Server Details (*) or Database Details button.
- Press the phpMyAdmin button on your control panel and use the database details you got in the previous step.
(*) Some games don't have Server Details button support. On those games, use the Database Details button.
Make a backup before you change anything in the database, so you can go back if an edit goes wrong. See How to back up your game server.
