Access forbidden! New XAMPP security concept:Access to the requested object is only available from the local network.

This setting can be configured in the file “httpd-xampp.conf”.

Step 1 – First validate if phpmyadmin is running and accessible locally.
curl http://localhost/phpmyadmin/

Step 2 – Locate httpd-xampp.conf in your Server

root@ip-172-31-20-213:/opt/lampp# cd /opt/lampp
root@ip-172-31-20-213:/opt/lampp# find . -name httpd-xampp.conf
./phpmyadmin/httpd-xampp.conf
./etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf
Step 3 – Modify httpd-xampp.conf with required permission.

vi ./etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf

since XAMPP 1.4.3
