Can't Get PHPMyAdmin to recognize configuration file after update(Keep getting blowfish_secret too short error)
<p>I just updated PhpMyAdmin via the command line (i added the PPA manually). I keep getting an error that says "The secret passphrase in configuration (blowfish_secret) is too short. I have created my own config.inc.php file in /etc/phpmyadmin using the command</p>

<pre><code>sudo cp config.sample.inc.php config.inc.php
</code></pre>

<p>In this file (my config.inc.php) I have set</p>

<pre><code>$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = 'wE(G|]=VPxy}UddLC8[sC1J8y$yElEU]7#_#*1fDas;doifje'; 
</code></pre>

<p>And restarted the server with </p>

<pre><code>sudo service apache2 restart
</code></pre>

<p>I also restarted the mysql server with</p>

<pre><code>sudo service mysql restart
</code></pre>

<p>I am still getting the error telling me that the blowfish_secret key is too short. (Yes, I have tried setting the key to EXACTLY 32 characters as well. This did not work either) I have refreshed the page, cleared the cache. I even tried setting all permissions to 7 </p>

<pre><code>sudo chmod -R 777 phpmyadmin
</code></pre>

<p>(JUST TO SEE if it would work. Don't kill me for being desperate XD) Still, no avail. Any ideas?</p>
