    Nov 16th 22 byAdmin inUnuntu

    Open terminal and execute following commands

    for 32 bit wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp/files/XAMPP%20Linux/1.8.3/xampp-linux-1.8.3-2-installer.run/download

    for 64 bit wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp/files/XAMPP%20Linux/1.8.3/xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-2-installer.run/download

    Then, executing the following commands will open the installer wizard

    sudo chmod +x xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-2-installer.run sudo ./xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-2-installer.run

    Then to start with the projects, you have to change the permission for htdocs folder by

    sudo chmod 777 -R /opt/lampp/htdocs

    To Start and Stop Xampp, sudo /opt/lampp/lampp stop sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start

    To get the GUI control panel of Xampp,

    sudo /opt/lampp/share/xampp-control-panel/xampp-control-panel.py (make sure you have installed python in your computer to use this)

    To Uninstall Xampp, use sudo -i cd /opt/lampp ./uninstall exit

    Does this approach also work for larger datasets? Our team is dealing with something similar at scale.
