I have configed it correctly, but when I created a new database, I get this massage "db_create.php: Missing parameter: db (FAQ 2.8)"

Ive read FAQ 2.8, but I found no mistake on my phpMyAdmin.

HELP, everyone pls!

You say "when I create a DB" - so do you mean it creates the DB successfully, but then gives you an error?

Is this your own setup or is this on shared hosting? If the latter, you may not have the permissions to create a new DB. If your host uses CPanel or the like, you may need to create the DB through CPanel and then access via PhpMyAdmin after the fact (I've definitely seen that at a couple of hosts, so I think it's quite common).

Ero, thks for your help.
I run phpmyadmin on localhost as amdinistrator. I can't use any function of it! Such as: create database, view structure of database, when I start to do a action, it always says "missing parameter db"... :((

I think MySQL works well, because I can create data, table by Command Prompt.

The same problem:

Hmmm... sorry, but I just don't know much about PhpMyAdmin. It must be some configuration problem. I wonder whether it might be a password issue. Just grasping at straws here, but what version of MySQL are you using? When you look at your mysql database (that is the db that has all the user authorization information) in the Users table, what do the passwords look like?

In your configuration file you need to specify the correct address for your server. I remember having an issue before when using "localhost". I had to specificaly use an ip address for it to work correctly.

This was a few versions ago, but it does sound like a similar problem.
