I'd be willing to bet that this won't fix it. I don't know what will, as I didn't have time to try anything beyond the obvious, but there was an .htaccess issue after an upgrade to phpmyadmin on Sarge. I have another Sarge installation with phpmyadmin on WMWare, but this didn't seem to have the problem. The defaults are all still in place on that version, while the document root is elsewhere on my real server. I have a feeling that is the cause of the trouble, that someone somewhere assumed /var/www. I eventually reinstalled apache after recreating the offending .htaccess files and reinstalling phpmyadmin didn't help. A nuisance, but still probably much quicker than trying to find the root cause. It worked yesterday...
