Edit panel.ini, adding these lines to it
[databaseManagement]
features.phpMyAdmin.loginForm.enabled = on -
Log in to phpMyAdmin with the database credentials at https://example.com:8443/phpmyadmin

Copy the original template
# cp /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/panel.ini.sample /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/panel.ini

With a custom URL, the configuration works well... until the login page.
The page displays fine, but when you validate the login form, you get a 404 error.
In short, it's impossible to use a custom URL, only the server URL with /phpmyadmin at the end works.
