Install XAMPP in Ubuntu

First, download the latest XAMPP version from www.xampp.org. Then, the Installation File Server knows/OPT and decompress it. If your computer does not have the/OPT directory, run the mkdir/OPT command as a super user to create the directory. If the computer does not have the sudo command, use the su command and enter the Super User Password to switch to the Super User.

Run the following command to copy the file to/OPT:
$ Sudo CP xampp-linux-x.x.tar.gz/OPT

Run the following command to enter the OPT/directory and decompress the file:
$ CD/OPT
$ Sudo tarzxvf xampp-linux-x.x-x.tar.gz/OPT

If you want normal users to write the htdocs directory, clear the permission to modify the directory.

$ Sudo chmod-r a + RW/opt/lampp/htdocs

XAMPP: couldn't start MySQL! Solution (MySQL service cannot be started)

$ Sudo chmod 777-r/opt/lampp/var

How to control user connection failures defined in the configuration file

1. Find config in the root directory where phpMyAdmin is installed. inc. PHP configuration file (or config. sample. inc. PHP, first rename it as config. inc. PHP) and open it with notepad.

2. In the Open configuration file, find $ cfg ['servers'] [$ I] ['controlpass'] = '*******'; * is your password. It is blank by default. Change it to the password you modified on phpMyAdmin.

3. If your user name has been modified, find $ cfg ['servers'] [$ I] ['controluser'] = 'root, here, "root" is your user name, and it is changed to your modified user name.

Existing configuration file (./config. Inc. php) is not readable.

$ Sudo chmod 644 config. Inc. php

Start or stop XAMPP:
$ Sudo/opt/lampp start & stop
