phpmyadmin - count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable

I've uploaded the backup to a table, opening the table I see this:

Warning in ./libraries/sql.lib.php#601

Inside phpMyAdmin...

PHP is 7.2, the server is Ubuntu 16.04, installed yesterday.

Looking for I saw that some have this error in their code, but I did not find anyone who received it in phpMyAdmin...

What should I do? Is that my error? A phpmyadmin error? wait update ? I go back to PHP 7.1?

The Easiest Method:

Just run this below command line in terminal and come back to PhpMyAdmin.

sudo sed -i "s/|\s*\((count(\$analyzed_sql_results\['select_expr'\]\)/| (\1)/g" /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php

Manual Method:

Open sql.lib.php file

nano /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php

Find for count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'] code on file. You can get this at line ~613. You can see this below wrong code

|| (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'] == 1)

Just replace that wrong code with this below one

|| ((count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1)

Save the file and come to PhpMyAdmin.

I had this issue when using windows and the responses above solved it for me, however when i switched to linux (ubuntu 18.04 LTS) I had the same issue and couldn't figure out how to solve it because I didn't see the file '/usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php'.

This sql.lib.php file wasn't in the share folder or the phpmyadmin/libraries folder of my /opt/lampp directory - since I was using xampp on my ubuntu. Based on the update made to the xampp (because I used the latest installation as of now) setup.

The answer is still to replace: (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'] == 1)

With: (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1

However the file to look for is Sql.php found in /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin/libraries/classes/Sql.php

Future updates or if you still don't find it: use grep -r 'count($analyzed_sql_results' /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin to search for matching documents in your directory and edit accordingly

echo "Verifying broken code in $FILE"

if grep -q "$PATTERN" "$FILE"; then
  LINE_NUMBER=$(grep -n "$PATTERN" "$FILE" | cut -d : -f 1)
  echo "Broken code found on line: $LINE_NUMBER"
  BEFORE_CODE=$(sed -n "$LINE_NUMBER"p "$FILE")

  echo -e "\nCreating backup of $FILE"
  sudo cp "$FILE" "$FILE-backup-$(date +"%Y-%m-%dT%H%M%S")"
  echo "Backup created at: $FILE-backup-$(date +"%Y-%m-%dT%H%M%S")"

  echo -e "\nApplying fix"
  sudo sed -i "s/|\s*\((count(\$analyzed_sql_results\['select_expr'\]\)/| (\1)/g" $FILE
  AFTER_CODE=$(sed -n "$LINE_NUMBER"p "$FILE")

  # Trim before and after code with xargs
  echo "BEFORE: $(echo $BEFORE_CODE | xargs)"
  echo " AFTER: $(echo $AFTER_CODE | xargs)"
else
  echo "Broken code not found. Maybe it's already been patched "

phpmyadmin 4.7.4 is supposed to have "Fixed several compatibility issues with PHP 7.2"

Chances are you have an older version of phpmyadmin.

I think the best option is to update Phpmyadmin to a version which has this already fixed.

Until it is published as a deb, you could do it like in @crimson-501 answer which I will copy below:

  • Your first step is to install PMA (phpMyAdmin) from the official Ubuntu repo: apt-get install phpmyadmin.
  • Next, cd into usr/share directory: cd /usr/share.
  • Third, remove the phpmyadmin directory: rm -rf phpmyadmin.
  • Now we need to download the latest PMA version onto our system (Note that you need wget: apt-get install wget): wget -P /usr/share/ "https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.9.4/phpMyAdmin-4.9.4-english.zip" Let me explain the arguments of this command, -P defines the path and "the link.zip" is currently (7/17/18) the latest version of PMA. You can find those links HERE.
  • For this next step you need unzip (apt-get install unzip): unzip phpMyAdmin-4.9.4-english.zip. We just unzipped PMA, now we will move it to it's final home.
  • Lets use the cp (copy) command to move our files! Note that we have to add the -r argument since this is a folder. cp -r phpMyAdmin-4.9.4-english phpmyadmin.
  • Now it's time to clean up: rm -rf phpMyAdmin-4.9.4-english.

Keep Reading!

You might now notice two errors after you log into PMA.

the configuration file now needs a secret passphrase (blowfish_secret). phpmyadmin
The $cfg['TempDir'] (./tmp/) is not accessible. phpMyAdmin is not able to cache templates and will be slow because of this.

However, these issues are relatively easy to fix. For the first issue all you have to do is grab your editor of choice and edit /usr/share/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php but there's a problem, we removed it! That's ok, all you have to do is: cd /usr/share/phpmyadmin & cp config.sample.inc.php config.inc.php.

Example phpMyAdmin Blowfish Secret Variable Entry:

/*
 * This is needed for cookie based authentication to encrypt password in
 * cookie
 */
$cfg['blowfish_secret'] = '{^QP+-(3mlHy+Gd~FE3mN{gIATs^1lX+T=KVYv{ubK*U0V'; 
/* YOU MUST FILL IN THIS FOR COOKIE AUTH! */

Now save and close the file.

  • Now we will create a tmp directory for PMA: mkdir tmp & chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/share/phpmyadmin/tmp. The last command allows the Apache web server to own the tmp directory and edit it's contents.

Open the /usr/share/phpmyadmin/sql.lib.php file with elevated privileges, and edit the following in the function PMA_isRememberSortingOrder():

  1. ~ line 613 to fix the initial error:
    • Replace || count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'] == 1)
    • With || (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1)
  2. ~ line 614 to fix the 500 error that will probably follow:
    • Replace && ($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*')))
    • With && ($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*'))

Restart your Apache server: sudo service apache2 restart.

Tested on Linux Mint 19.1 based on Ubuntu 18.04, with PhpMyAdmin 4.6.6 and PHP 7.2.

Proceed following steps at ubuntu-18.04:

Step 1) locate sql.lib.php

It will show something like:

/usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php

Step 2) Open terminal (Alt t) and write:

sudo /usr/sbin/pma-configure

Step 3)sudo gedit /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php and search below function:

 

    function PMA_isRememberSortingOrder($analyzed_sql_results)
     {
        return $GLOBALS['cfg']['RememberSorting']
            && ! ($analyzed_sql_results['is_count']
                || $analyzed_sql_results['is_export']
                || $analyzed_sql_results['is_func']
                || $analyzed_sql_results['is_analyse'])
            && $analyzed_sql_results['select_from']
            && ((empty($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']))
                || (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'] == 1)
                    && ($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*')))
            && count($analyzed_sql_results['select_tables']) == 1;
     }

Step 4) Replace above function with:


     function PMA_isRememberSortingOrder($analyzed_sql_results)
     {
        return $GLOBALS['cfg']['RememberSorting']
            && ! ($analyzed_sql_results['is_count']
                || $analyzed_sql_results['is_export']
                || $analyzed_sql_results['is_func']
                || $analyzed_sql_results['is_analyse'])
            && $analyzed_sql_results['select_from']
            && ((empty($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']))
                || (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1)
                    && ($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*'))
            && count($analyzed_sql_results['select_tables']) == 1;
     }

Step 4) Save & close file and below command on terminal

sudo /usr/sbin/pma-secure

Step 5) sudo service mysql reload

Step 6) sudo service apache2 reload

It works for me.. Goodluck

This is fixed in later versions of PHPMyAdmin. The Ubuntu Software Repositories for Ubuntu 18.04.2 holds version 4.6.6.5, while they're currently at 4.9.0.1. Updating your PHPMyAdmin installation will fix this problem, but might prove to be riskier than just editing that one line of code. Here's how I did it on my Ubuntu Server. Steps are essentially the same (with a different path) for all operating systems.

  1. Download PHPMyAdmin.
wget https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.9.0.1/phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.zip
unzip phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.zip
  1. Backup your old PHPMyAdmin installation.
cp -r /usr/share/phpmyadmin ~/phpmyadmin-backup
  1. Drop your new PHPMyAdmin on your old PHPMyAdmin
cd phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages
rm -r /usr/share/phpmyadmin/doc/html
cp -R * /usr/share/phpmyadmin/

Verify that it works. If it doesn't, welll... You have a backup, so restore it and manually edit the faulty line. In my own personal experience, I discovered after doing this that version 4.6.6.5 was not only riddled with bugs, but also incredibly slow compared to the new 4.9.0.1. The speed increase was pure magic for something I though was of "WordPress" quality.

is_countable function introduced in (PHP 7 >= 7.3.0)

is_countable — Verify that the contents of a variable is a countable value.

use this function following way ::

is_countable ( $var )

It will return boolean value. For more detail please visit on http://php.net/manual/en/function.is-countable.php

I tried all of above solution but didn't work for me.

Try this:-

Install required version of PHP(in my case 7.0) and then in terminal, type

sudo update-alternatives --config php

Output will be like this :-

enter image description here

Then you can switch to any version of PHP by simply entering the selection number(in my case 1).

Hope this may help other -:)

As the error in code in conf file may vary (@Jacky Nguyen vs @ĦΔŇĐŘΔ ŇΔҜҜΔ answers),
the general solution answer would be to
a) correct the condition logic in conf file to make sense
(x)or b) install corrected/current phpmyadmin

As for a)

  1. open the file with error code
    For the terminal people: sudo nano /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php
    For the regular folks: sudo gedit /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php

  2. find the condition - basically search for $analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']

  3. now the logic should be to check whether this sub array is empty, or, whether it has just 1 element with a value "*

  4. so basically the block
    between && $analyzed_sql_results['select_from']
    and && count($analyzed_sql_results['select_tables']) == 1
    should look something like this

&& (
    empty($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) //the sub array is empty,
    || //or,
    (
        (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1) //it has just 1 element
        && //and at the same time
        ($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*') //the 1 element value is "*"
    )
)

This is a good example of why to indent and beautify your code, if it would be indeted correctly, I believe this would never happen, or at least, would be more easily found.

Find the following line(ctrl+f):

if ($options != null && count($options) > 0) {

it was on line #551 for me

and change for following:

if ($options != null && count((array)$options) > 0) {

ctrl+s for save the changes

and in terminal: ctrl+c for get back promt...

and: sudo systemctl restart apache2

Edit file /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php using this command:

sudo nano +613 /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php

On line 613 the count function always evaluates to true since there is no closing parenthesis after $analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']. Making the below replacements resolves this, then you will need to delete the last closing parenthesis on line 614, as it's now an extra parenthesis.

Replace:

((empty($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']))
    || (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'] == 1)
        && ($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*')))

With:

((empty($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']))
    || (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1)
        && ($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*'))

I see that you are all editing or updating from our files

For those who want automatic updates you can use our Ubuntu PPA

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phpmyadmin/ppa

And for Debian users you will need to wait for next version of Debian or use PPA

Ubuntu 20 has phpMyAdmin 4.9 or a later version

Debian issue on our tracker

Countable issues on our tracker

TLDR Update to latest 4.9 or 5.0 version to solve this issue.

Step 2
$ sudo apt-get --with-new-pkgs upgrade

Step 3

1.) First download latest phpMyadmin file.

2.) Delete (make a backup) all previous version file located in /usr/share/phpmyadmin directory.

3.) Uncompress to /usr/share/phpmyadmin/ directory all files of latest phpmyadmin.

4.) Modify file libraries/vendor_config.php and change line:

define('CONFIG_DIR', '');

to

define('CONFIG_DIR', '/etc/phpmyadmin/');

and

define('TEMP_DIR', './tmp/');

to

define('TEMP_DIR', '/tmp/');

5.) restart apache server and done.

Based on @jbator's answer, you can edit /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/plugin_interface.lib.php and replace this line:

if ($options != null && count($options) > 0) {

with these lines:

if ($options != null &&
   ((is_array($options) || $options instanceof Countable) && count($options) > 0) ||
   (method_exists($options, 'getProperties') && $options->getProperties() != null && (is_array($options->getProperties()) || $options->getProperties() instanceof Countable) && count($options->getProperties()) > 0)) {

In this way, we won't have empty exported file.

Take a look: https://devanswers.co/problem-php-7-2-phpmyadmin-warning-in-librariessql-count/

Firstly, backup sql.lib.php before editing. Edit sql.lib.php in nano.

$ sudo nano /usr/share/phpmyadmin/libraries/sql.lib.php

Press CTRL + W and search for (count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'] == 1)

Replace it with ((count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1)

Save file and exit. (Press CTRL + X, press Y and then press ENTER)

Replace Function:

function PMA_isRememberSortingOrder($analyzed_sql_results) {
return $GLOBALS['cfg']['RememberSorting']
    &&!(
        $analyzed_sql_results['is_count']
        || $analyzed_sql_results['is_export']
        || $analyzed_sql_results['is_func']
        || $analyzed_sql_results['is_analyse']
    )&&
    $analyzed_sql_results['select_from']&&
    (
        empty($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'])||
        count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'])==1&&
        $analyzed_sql_results['select_expr'][0] == '*'
    )
    && count($analyzed_sql_results['select_tables']) == 1;
}

|| ((count($analyzed_sql_results['select_expr']) == 1

This is what I changed in line 614 and phpmyadmin works without any error. Need one ( before count, and one ) before == . That's it.
