phpMyAdmin infinite loop when attempting to use ph

问题:

I am using a free host called ByetHost as I don't need an expensive hosting solution for the website I am building as the traffic will be low.

I am experiencing an infinite redirect loop when attempting to sign in to phpMyAdmin in my VistaPanel account. I am using a CMS and need to backup my database.

When I attempt to enter phpMyAdmin, using the URL http://www.php-myadmin.com/login.php?phpMyAdmin=HASHINHERE I just get this in my browser:

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I have cleared all cookies and cache and tried two different browsers (FF and Safari).

I have found out the way to get around this problem and I can imagine it could be an issue for other VistaPanel/cPanel users of phpMyAdmin.

I had to log into the cPanel, change my password, logout, clear all my cookies and then log back in. When I logged back in and tried to connect to phpMyAdmin I could get in fine!
