We can verify this fact by opening our browser and visiting http://www.mydomain.

Probably reason of this is, that you did not create configuration file. You might
want to use setup script to create one.
At this point we have two choices:
Use the web-based setup script to generate a config.inc.php file
Manually create a config.inc.php file
These options are presented in the following sections. We should note that even
if we use the web-based setup script, we should familiarize ourselves with the
config.inc.php file format, because the setup script does not cover all the possible
configuration options.
Web-Based Setup Script
The web-based setup mechanism is strongly recommended in order to avoid syntax
errors that could result from the manual creation of the configuration file. Indeed,
since this file must respect PHP's syntax, it's common for new users to experience
problems in this phase of the installation.
