I've installed Xampp, and used phpMyadmin to create a database, I want now to use that with a Page made by Joomla,so I installed it with bitnami package, but I can't activate both, Xampp servers and Joomla at the same time, so when I try to log in phpMyAdmin of Joomla it doesn't recognise my admin and pasword of xampp. Any idea of how to solve the problem?
EDIT: I'm using Linux
TIP: Don't use bitnami. Use Joomla as it is instead.
It will be much better for you on the long run.
So:
Uninstall Bitnami
Restart Apache & MySQL
Example:
Create a database in phpMYAdmin
Example:
Download Joomla
Extract Joomla's ZIP file into C:\xampp\htdocs in Windows or /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs on OSX.
I would recommend creating a folder inside "htdocs" like "mysite" so you can add multiple sites in the future inside different folder's
Navigate to either http://localhost/ or http://localhost/mysite and follow the Joomla Installation Process
It is simple to solve your problem.
Uninstall the bitnami package
Start your Xampp Apache and MySQL Server
Create a Database over phpMyAdmin
Download: https://www.joomla.org/download.html
Extract the files in the ZIP to your xampp installation in the folder htdocs. When you used the standard installation it isC:\xampp\htdocs
Open your browser on http://localhost and follow the installation instructions of Joomla

I know that I'm missing something obvious here. I installed XAMPP on my Mac to develop a Joomla site locally. Everything has gone fine and I'm now ready to migrate to my site to my external server, but I can't find it...
The Joomla documentation says that the local directory using XAMPP should be at xampp/www/directory, but there is no "www" folder anywhere in Applications/XAMPP and I can't find any other xampp folders anywhere on my hard drive. Where do I find the files I need to FTP to the server??
All help very appreciated!
You can use the find command to fine php files for your joomla installation :) Eg:
find / -name index.php
No more cowboy coding! I'm trying to develop on my local machine, but I'm no Ubuntu expert!
I've got it to the point where when I browse to "localhost" in my browser, it pulls up my Wordpress install and runs the site. It's trying to update, and showing this prompt:
So it's trying to run FTP as what? I'm new to Ubuntu, on my shared Bluehost server space Wordpress has no trouble FTPing out. How do I configure this on my local Ubuntu machine so that Wordpress can update. It's a fresh Ubuntu install from ISO disk. Do I need to configure FTP somehow? This is probably a very basic question - I think I'm looking for a few shell commands as the answer.
Here is a way in which you can disable the FTP Credentials for installing Plugins and Themes from backend
Just Add the following Code in wp-config.php
define('FS_METHOD','direct');
I have created one project in Php/Mysql .Now i want to create .exe file for this project.So that if anyone runs this exe file automatically mysql/php/apache get installed in other word he don't need to install anything.Is this Possible?
Thanks
You need to learn to use the setup creators.. The WAMP does the same by installing mysql and apache on the target computer. So your installer will be similar to WAMP that will silently install the apache and mysql and copy your files to www directory and create the database using some sql script.
I have this problem getting my newly created php project on Netbeans work on Ubuntu.
I've tried to place the source folder of the project in the /lampp/htdocs folder or selected the copy location option on the 3rd step of creating the project, yet none of them worked.
Here the version of the softwares I'm using:
Netbeans 7.1
LAMPP (newly download)
Ubuntu 11.10 (up-to-date)
I would be thankful if steps can be provided.
Ok I'll give you everything I usually do From the moment I download a new version of Ubuntu.
After installing Ubuntu I download XAMPP for Linux and follow their installation guide. Pay extra care to the permission when extracting XAMPP. Be sure you extracted it in the correct folder /opt.
You must start XAMPP manually by using the command /opt/lampp/lampp start. You will need root access for that. If everthing was started normally you will get the following message in the terminal:
Starting XAMPP 1.7.7...
LAMPP: Starting Apache...
LAMPP: Starting MySQL...
LAMPP started.
Navigate to http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 you should see the following screen.
(source: techblissonline.com)
Select your favorite language then voila your installation is complete.
create a new Netbeans project and call it test for example inside /opt/lampp/htdocs/.
Create an index.php file inside /opt/lampp/htdocs/test/ and put echo phpinfo() inside it.
Navigate to http://localhost/test/index.php and you should get the page you just wrote.
Notes:
Make sure all php extensions that you need are already installed by checking the phpinfo() page in XAMPP.
You would probably want to start XAMPP each time you start your PC instead of doing it manually every time. There are several ways to do that if you google it.
Have you tried all these steps and still can't get your project running ?
i have pre developed site ( using joomla )
i should make some editing to the database using xampp server
should i install joomla ?
and when i enter
localhost/project/index.php
i get this message
You may not be able to visit this page because of:

I think you don't need install it again. You did it before, just you need to install Xampp to run Apache and MySQL. Then copy your files in its htdocs folder in a certain folder (Like joomla). But pay attention that you must have a backup from your previous database. Otherwise, you need to install joomla again to create database and its tables.
I used AMPPS to do the same. You can import your current installation of Joomla in Softaculous provided by AMPPS. AMPPS is also a WAMP Stack with auto-installation of more than 230 open-source scripts. All the site installed by AMPPS and imported manual installations will be managed by AMPPS.
(Note : Your config file of Joomla should be proper. Take bakup before importing)
If nothing works you can still install Joomla again as it is easy using AMPPS. Hope this helps. :)
