PhpMyAdmin login page - Object Not Found

I am posting this solution for anyone else who may have had a similar problem. I had problems loading the "Welcome to phpMyAdmin" login page.
I expected it to be displayed when I pointed my browser to
Code: Select all
 http://localhost/myphpadmin

That page should display when the config.inc.php file has auth-type = cookie

I was getting an error that said "Object not found" or "Access denied per /etc/httpd/conf/webapps.d/phpmyadmin.conf"

I had the same versions of Apache, MariaDB , php and PhpMyAdmin on another machine and it worked properly and I could not find any differences when I compared the config files for Apache, php and PhpMyAdmin
MariaDB worked from the command line.
Code: Select all
http://localhost
showed the default web page.
Code: Select all
http://localhost/phpinfo.php
showed the PHP info page

I compared installed packages on both machines and found that Mageia has many Apache modules in separate packages and one of them is apache-mod-usedir for user specific directories.
that was installed on the good machine and not on the one with problems displaying the login page.

When I installed that package login worked as expected right away, I did not even have to restart Apache.
