I have installed latest phpMyAdmin on Apache+php+mysql on CentOs.
But after sometime of inactivity i am getting
No activity within 1440 seconds; please log in again.
And redirected to the phpMyAdmin Log-In page.
I have Edited /etc/php.ini and set
session.gc_maxlifetime 999999
and did HTTPD restart.
But still i am getting the same error. How do i fix this ?
How do i make the phpMyAdmin session for like 20+ days, as its a production environment.
Thanks

The same problem has been annoying me for weeks, but I think that I now have the answer, at least for the latest versions of phpMyAdmin (I currently have version 4.1.14). You need to change settings->features->Login cookie validity. The way that you get to this setting is as follows:
1) Login to phpMyAdmin 2) From the home screen click on "More settings" (middle bottom of screen for me) 3) Click the "Features" tab/button towards the top of the screen. 4) For 20 days set the "Login cookie validity" setting to 1728000 5) Apply. Hope that helps?
