Issue raised their concluded the problem likely resided in PHP somewhere (https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/issues/13117). Was using stock php package from ubuntu ppa (ver 7.0.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.4) so I raised a launchpad bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php7.0/+bug/1675117) which progressed to providing me with a ppa to test php 7.0.17. Testing still has the same errors when using the test script. Test script: --------------- Script is included in my bug submission here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php7.0/+bug/1675117 Actual result: -------------- Two errors return, excerpt below... kelvin@xxx-server:~$ php php_test.php PHP Warning: mysqli_fetch_array(): Malformed server packet.
