Would that be php 5.1 and mysql 5.1 or php 5.0 and mysql 5.0?
Does XAMPP install php/mysql from the repositories or from inside the XAMPP package?
Does phpmyadmin need to be installed separately?

Very nice. I got a lamp development server up and running in about an hour. Download time was most of that. It took most of the day when I put a dev server of fendora 5. Now I would like to add the "sweet gtk/python control panel" to a menu. but I guess i will just use the command line till I get that one figured out. It all works Apache, mysql, php, phpmyadmin. You get a from me.

Crazy huge bold text.
I updated the XAMPP Control Panel section to hopefully make it easier.

This is what the XAMPP package contains: (Version 1.5.3a)
From XAMPP website:
It installs each one of these into /opt. Nothing is taken from the repos, and nothing in the XAMPP package needs anything outside of the XAMPP package to run. It is a self contained, presetup LAMP stack that just works.

PHP 5.1.4 and 4.4.2
Inside the package.Does XAMPP install php/mysql from the repositories or from inside the XAMPP package?
No. It is installed and ready to run.Does phpmyadmin need to be installed separately?

I install this, and nothing happens when I go to http://localhost
I get this error
Code:The connection has timed out The server at 127.0.0.1 is taking too long to respond. * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
When I do a ps -ef I get this, so I see httpd is running

Try restarting XAMPP first:
Other then that, there is a Apache Friends forum:Code:sudo /opt/lampp/lampp restart
http://www.apachefriends.org/f/viewf...984ccbbe4184c7
XAMPP Linux FAQ:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/faq-xampp-linux.html
I'll try to help, but I really don't know much.
Oh, do you have some form of firewall running? That may be blocking local http. (Port 80)

I have a question about this. I have a fat32 partition that I would like to have my development websites on. Is this possible to do? I tried creating a soft link in /opt/lampp/htdocs to a folder on the fat32 partition, but it does not seem to do anything...In the directory listing for localhost/ there is only one html file that I put there. (I took out the default files)
I don't think it is possible to create a soft link to a fat32 drive. I'm pretty sure its a ext2/3 only thing and cannot span different filesystems.
What you can do is change the "DocumentRoot" in the httpd.conf file for XAMPP.
Open a terminal:
Now Scroll down to the line:Code:sudo cp /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf.backup sudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf
and change it to point to your fat32 drive. (? "/media/fat32/" ?)Code:DocumentRoot "/opt/lampp/htdocs"
I'd suggest to point it only to a web subdirectory on the drive as serving up the root of the drive will put all of the files on it onto the webserver and allowing anyone to view them.
Changing this will make the fancy http://localhost/xampp test stuff stop working. (It is installed into /opt/lampp/htdocs/) Everything else should work.
Hope that helps.

Nice.
Has anyone tried to add new users to mysql through phpmyadmin? Are you able to easily add new users for each database you've
created?
Can the XAMPP /opt directories be zipped up whole, and redeployed after a meltdown?
From phpmyadmin.net site:
Features of phpmyadmin:
manage MySQL users and privileges
So I'm assuming yes. I haven't tried it, but I'm sure you can do everything with phpmyadmin as it is the best web interface for mysql.
Backup:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/faq-...ux.html#backup
(The site's a little screwed up, just ignore the "XAMPP runs, but none of the images are shown?" section there, the backup how-to is right after it.)
According to the above guide all you have to do is keep the original tar.gz XAMPP archive and the xampp-backup-DD-MM-YY.sh file and you should be good. Just reinstall XAMPP and run the sh script to restore the backup.
