How can phpMyAdmin (running on Ubuntu 10.04) be restarted after the /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
file was changed?

No need to restart phpMyAdmin, changes in /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
are automatically applied.
2so why when uncomment :$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = TRUE; I get still message: Login without a password is forbidden by configuration (see AllowNoPassword) – Yosef – 2010-05-21T14:43:03.370
Are you using root account without password? And which version of PMA are you using? – BloodPhilia – 2010-05-21T14:50:00.517
i am using as root and 4.3.3 – aWebDeveloper – 2010-12-15T05:39:15.207
@Yosef: been there too. There are 2 lines in config file with this setting. I'm not sure which one needs to be uncommented, but if you do just one - 50% chance is that's the wrong one unless you know exactly what you are doing. – tishma – 2012-09-29T11:20:16.103

I was in a similar situation on Ubuntu 10.10 (phpmyadmin 3.3.7deb3build0.10.10.1) and even after editing /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
I couldn't login (because of AllowNoPassword).
I had to cp /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.sample.inc.php /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
and then add the $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = TRUE;
line to it.
It is strange, but it worked.
The same issue with me. It seems that Ubuntu ignores /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
but loads /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
. Uncomment "Storage database and tables" section and "Designer" mode will be enabled. – bancer – 2012-10-14T19:02:33.970

Try and open it using:
sudo gedit /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
Uncomment it and save, but keep it open - then try opening phpMyAdmin. It should work.
I've never liked using a package manager for phpMyAdmin. I've always found it easier and faster to download directly form http://www.phpmyadmin.net/, copy the sample config file to config.inc.php, and edit that
– wag2639 – 2010-05-23T14:51:30.6671What does this have to do with the question anyway? It's about how a change in the config file gets applied. – BloodPhilia – 2010-05-23T15:43:19.853
