Installing XAMPP error
I followed How to install XAMPP 1-8-3 for Linux in Ubuntu Desktop
I already installed lampp under /opt.
I am using the command sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start, I have seen XAMPP four of them the first one is starting Apache fail, second and third is already running, and last one is starting MySQl
When I try to open xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-4-installer.run on my desktop, I get this error:
there has been an error this installer requires root privileges. please become superuser before executing the installer.

Have you tried executingsudo ~/Desktop/xampp-linux-x64-1.8.3-4-installer.run? This will execute the file as the root user (superuser/su).
