Forums / Setup & design / Virtual server does not give me access to shell mysql commands, only phpMyAdmin

The ensim control panel for linux does the following:
While it is reasonably simple to create a new database as a site administrator, experienced appliance administrators or root users will find that they can no longer simply create databases through the standard mysql tools. This loss of functionality occurs because the /var/lib/mysql directory is now owned by the user root, and the directory only has write permission for the root user. The mysql daemon runs as the user mysql, and thus can't write to this directory when it tries to create a database.
This affects the ability to run the eZ publish setup since the setup uses the mysql commands.
Is there a way around using mysql commands and solely use phpMyAdmin to configure ezPublish?

Hugo,
You can use phpMyAdmin to do all of this. You will find most people use phpmyadmin anyway even if they have shell access... its alot better and Version 2.5 is very good...

Very good.
Can you point me in the right direction?
I am stuck/accustomed to using the eZ publish setup wizard. If I disable the setup, how do I properly set up the database through phpMyAdmin?
