Installing MySQL, Apache, PHP, and Perl on Linux Using the XAMPP
Integrated Package
To install XAMPP on your Linux system, first visit the XAMPP homepage (http://www
.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html), follow the link to XAMPP for Linux, and download the gzipped tar package. Switch to the superuser account su -
and create the directory /opt:
# mkdir -parents /opt
We’re using the parents option hereto tell Linux not to complain if the directory already exists.
Now change to this directory and extract the files from the package cd /opt
# tar --gunzip -extract --file
adam/xampp-linux-1.5.3a.tar.gz
Here, we’ve assumed that the downloaded file is in
adam
‘s home directory (
adam
); use the appropriate location on your system.
You can now start XAMPP by typing /opt/lampp/lampp start

If there is already a running MySQL or Apache server running on your system, XAMPP
may complain during startup. If this happens, shut these down before trying to start
XAMPP again. Stop any existing MySQL or Apache server before starting XAMPP.
Now that the server’s running, tighten up the security settings by typing /opt/lampp/lampp security
