- Requirements
- ============
- Web server
- ----------
- Since, phpMyAdmin's interface is based entirely in your browser, you'll need a
- web server (such as Apache, :term:`IIS`) to install phpMyAdmin's files into.
- PHP
- ---
- * You need PHP 5.3.0 or newer, with ``session`` support, the Standard PHP Library
- (SPL) extension, JSON support, and the ``mbstring`` extension.
- * To support uploading of ZIP files, you need the PHP ``zip`` extension.
- * You need GD2 support in PHP to display inline thumbnails of JPEGs
- ("image/jpeg: inline") with their original aspect ratio.
- * When using the cookie authentication (the default), the `mcrypt
- <http://www.php.net/mcrypt>`_ extension is strongly suggested.
- * To support upload progress bars, see :ref:`faq2_9`.
- * To support XML and Open Document Spreadsheet importing, you need the
- `libxml <http://www.php.net/libxml>`_ extension.
- * Performance suggestion: install the ``ctype`` extension.
