phpmyadmin error during installation "Empty value for 'port' specified."
<p>I have been trying to install phpmyadmin on my digitalocean droplet using ubuntu 14.04 / mysql 5.7.12 .  I have a LAMP stack with apache as the web server.</p>

<p>During installation I keep getting the error shown here. <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ZN58X.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ZN58X.png" alt="error message"></a>
E</p>

<p>I am pretty new to phpmyadmin and wondering why I keep getting this.  Previously installing phpmyadmin with an older version of mysql was error free.  I am trying to install it as a non-root sudo user.</p>

<p>Any direction or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.</p>
