What's the meaning of the error messages I see when starting XAMPP?

Lampp-apache is already running. An Apache daemon is already running.

The Lampp startup script did not start Xampp-apache because there are an Apache instance already running. To the start XAMPP properly, first you has to stop the This daemon.

Lampp-mysql is already running. A MySQL Daemon is already running.

Mostly due to the same reasons as the above error, the Lampp startup script found a MySQL daemon already running on your s Ystem. To the start lampp properly, you has to stop this daemon first.

The file/opt/lampp/backup/xampp-backup-22-01-14.sh (in the example above) contains your backup data. Store this file with a safe place.
The new machine is need the same version of XAMPP as on your original/source machine.
