I have encountered a problem when I am trying to access my phpmyadmin, the following error came up:
Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable!
I am thinking of some access control list error. I have searched the web and found article pertaining this error. The link is not on english but you can see that config.inc.php control is set to 777 (means writable).
Since I am familiar with my host (which is Ubuntu Linux), I just apply this command:
sudo chmod 705 /var/www/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
And it works!

chmod 775 /var/www/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
Must work.
I use this command in FreeBSD.
