00:01 Hello everyone. Welcome to this tutorial on XAMPP Installation on Linux.
00:08 In this tutorial, we will learn:

How to install XAMPP on Linux How to create & run a php file.

00:18 To record this tutorial, I am using:

Ubuntu Linux OS 14.04 FireFox Web Browser and Gedit Text editor.

00:32 To install XAMPP, you should have-

A working Internet connection and Admin access to your computer.

00:41 You should also have basic knowledge of Linux commands. If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website.
00:52 XAMPP is a free and Open source web server package.
00:58 XAMPP consists of: Apache HTTP Server, MySQL database, Interpreters for scripts written in PHP and Perl.
01:12 XAMPP is easy to install. It is available for GNU/Linux, Mac, Windows and Solaris operating systems.
01:23 Let's download XAMPP for Linux.
01:27 Open the web browser on your machine.
01:31 In the Address bar, type: https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html and press Enter.
01:44 Scroll down the page.
01:47 Here XAMPP is available to download for all operating systems.
01:53 Visit XAMPP for Linux section. You can see the recent version of Xampp.
02:01 My system is a 64bit OS. So under version 5.5.19 / PHP 5.5.19,
02:11 I will select Download (64 bit).
02:15 The download will start.
02:18 I have already downloaded this file in my Downloads folder.
02:24 So, I will skip downloading step.
02:28 Now open the terminal.
02:31 On the terminal, type the command cd space Downloads and press Enter.
02:40 This will change the current working directory to Downloads.
02:46 Now, type the command ls and press Enter.
02:51 This will display the contents of the Downloads folder.
02:56 Here is our XAMPP installation file.
03:00 Let's give executable permission to the file
03:04 so that we can run this file. Type: chmod space +x space filename and press Enter.
03:18 Now to run the file, type: sudo space dot slash (./) filename and press Enter.
03:29 Enter the admin password if required.
03:34 Setup wizard dialog box opens.
03:38 Click on Next button whenever required and follow the installation steps as shown.
03:46 Uncheck Learn more about Bitnami for XAMPP check box.
03:52 Click on Next.
03:54 Once the installation is done, uncheck Launch XAMPP check box and click on Finish.
04:04 This installation will create lampp folder in the system's opt folder.
04:12 Let's go there and have a look.
04:15 From the launcher on the left, click on Files folder icon.
04:21 On the left panel, under Devices section, click on Computer.
04:29 You can see the system files. Double-click on opt folder to open it.
04:38 Here it is- the lampp folder. Open this folder.
04:44 Here we can see several sub-folders.
04:48 Locate the folder named htdocs.
04:53 This is our Web server Appache's root directory.
04:58 We have to save our PHP code file inside this folder to run it.
05:05 The Apache's root directory will be /opt/lampp/htdocs or /var/www, based on your installation process.
05:24 To make htdocs folder writable, we have to change the permission.
05:30 So, on the terminal, type: sudo chmod 777 -R /opt/lampp/htdocs and press Enter.
05:56 Enter the admin password if required.
06:00 Now let's check whether Xampp is running or not.
06:04 Open the web browser. In the Address bar, type localhost and press Enter.
06:15 It shows message “Unable to connect”.
06:20 It seems Xampp services are not running.
06:23 To start the services, type on the terminal: sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start and press Enter.
06:40 Enter admin password if required.
06:44 This will start all the Xampp services.
06:47 Go back to the web browser and refresh the page.
06:52 Here it is! The welcome screen of Xampp.
06:56 It will ask us to choose the default language. I will select English.
07:03 Xampp is running perfectly now.
07:06 Let's write a sample php code and run it.
07:11 In htdocs, let's create a folder named phpacademy.
07:16 In future, I will save all my php files in this folder.
07:23 This is to ensure that my files don't get over-written by someone else.
07:30 Open the phpacademy folder. Let us create a php file.
07:37 Right-click and select New Document and Empty document. Name it as demo.php.
07:48 Open the demo.php in Gedit text editor.
07:53 You can use any editor of your choice.
07:59 Type: less than question mark php enter echo space in double quotes "Hello India” semicolon enter question mark greater than
08:20 To save the file, press Ctrl and S keys simultaneously.
08:27 Go back to the web browser.
08:29 In the address bar, type: localhost/phpacademy and press Enter.
08:40 This will display the list of files inside the phpacademy folder.
08:47 Here is our file demo.php; click on it.
