sudo apt install phpmyadmin
2.Respond to requests:
Web server to reconfigure automatically:
select apache2, press Enter.
Configure database for phpMyAdmin with dbconfig-common:
Press Enter to select Yes.
MySQL application password for phpMyAdmin:
Create a password to register phpMyAdmin on the database server. Press Enter to confirm. Then re-enter the password.
3. Disenable PHP modules mcrypt and mbstring:
sudo phpenmod mcrypt
sudo phpenmod mbstring
4.Restart your web server:
sudo systemctl restart apache2
You can login to phpMyAdmin at http://IPaddress_server/phpmyadmin
Use your MySQL root username and password to log in.
IMPORTANT!
When installing LAMP in unattended mode, the MySQL root user password is not set.
To create a root password, go to MySQL management:

Run:
SET PASSWORD FOR 'root' @ 'localhost'= PASSWORD ('my_password');
To exit MySQL:
\ q.
You can also change MySQL root user password.
