Introduction
phpPgAdmin is a web based PostgreSQL software management package. To use it you should install and configure PHP, Apache and postgresql, see PostgreSQL for instructions.
Installing From Package
Install phpPgAdmin from the Universe repository see InstallingSoftware for detailed instructions on using repositories and package managers. (Note, however, that installation from a package manager often does not work).
From console:
sudo apt-get install phppgadmin
For Ubuntu 14.10 edit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and add the following line to it:
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/phppgadmin
For older Ububtu releases only: to set up under Apache all you need to do is include the following line in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.
Include /etc/phppgadmin/apache.conf
Access
Once phpPgAdmin is installed point your browser to http://localhost/phppgadmin to start using it. You should be able to login using any users you've setup in PostgreSQL.
Remote access
By default you can only access phppgadmin from localhost. If you want to be able to use it remotely, do the following:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf.d/phppgadmin
or for older Ubuntu releases
sudo nano /etc/phppgadmin/apache.conf
Comment out (add # at beginning of line) "allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128" and remove # from the line below it, "allow from all".
Then restart apache
sudo service apache2 reload
