Should be apt-get update & apt-get upgrade NOT apt-get update & apt-get upgarde
GregRickson

Another spelling mistake !!
http://ip/phomyadmin or http://host/phpmyadmin should be
http://ip/phpmyadmin or http://host/phpmyadmin

Or if you would like to do it all in one shot. just use the command
sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ (Yes you need the caret^ at the end.

If you get Not Found when trying to start phpmyadmin, then this will fix it ..

sudo ln -s /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf
