PHPMyAdmin alert box - missing value in the form - all usual fields are filled out?

Question

For some reason while using PHPMyAdmin and attempting to save a table, even though I\'ve entered all of the information I usually do I\'m getting an alert box popping up wit

Answer 1

Looks like a bug. Try going to Settings -> Features -> General tab and disable Ajax.

Then, try to create a new table and it won't use the popup.

Answer 2

Yes It's a bug. what I did is to stop xampp (or if you're using wampp), and then start them again. after that you will be able to create the table in phpMyAdmin

Answer 3

You can also try USE databasename; at the top of your query. In some versions this error seem to happen even if you did select your database, USE databasename; will fix this bug in those situations.

Answer 4

I got this problem too and I had opened same database in phpmyadmin in two separate tabs of browser . When I closed one tab and access phpmyadmin, the problem disappeared.

Answer 5

I just encountered this in 4.1.11. Seems to be a bug (again?). Disabling the popup and switching to the original theme resolved it somewhat for me, although you'll be without the popup which is a pain in the behind.

Switch back to Original theme:

Home > Theme: "Original"

Disable the popup:

Home > More settings > SQL queries > Disable: "Edit in window"

Answer 6

Just to let you know folks. Turning off my AdBlock Plus finally solved it for me. No more Missing value in the form! pop-ups when trying to submit something. Whitelist phpMyAdmin domain in any style or script altering add-on you might use.
