I have a running XAMPP(lampp) in the /opt/lampp/htdocs/xampp directory.
I have downloaded xampp 1.8.2-4 from here
I start xampp by sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start/stop so whenever I hit localhost it redirects me to localhost/xampp
Now the problem is when I hit localhost/xampp its showing
Not Found
The requested URL /xampp/ was not found on this server.
Apache/2.4.6 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80
the problem is my localhost is now pointing to /var/www/index.html not to /opt directory
Apache is starting when I type in the terminal:
$ service apache2 start
* Starting web server apache2
Now, after stopping XAMPP by
sudo /opt/lampp/lampp stop
when i hit localhost its fetching index.html from var/www directory with a message
It works!
This is the default web page for this server.
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.
How can I make my XAMPP responds with
sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
How it can be resolved?
i have a linux hosting working with cakephp.some sites got intrusion/hacked.i used nmap to see the open ports.
i found 21/tcp open ftp is the port which should be restricted and not accessible via public.
also i am thinking to restrict /app/config from 777 to 755 and also change databse.php file 'login' => 'root', to user.
can i restrict ftp port 21 to set priviledge if yes, what effect it will have.
how to set priviledge on ftp port 21 of a host.
other ideas regarding security is also welcomed.
I was a MySQL query browser user in Windows. I switched to Ubuntu 13.10 and now I can't get MySQL query browser so I tried TORA referenced from MySQL GUI Tools
Now I could not get any option in connection provider: it's like disabled not showing MySQL db
When I hit New Connection it says
no available connection provider
How to get connection provider in TORA?
am trying to get info of host run in linux about open/closed port
the host is attacked randomly by hackers changing the content of the page.deleting files,homepage content changed.
how can it be stopped?
i scan ports using nmap i found it normal to have ports open like 3306 for mysql 80 for apache and other like mail server pop3 the list of open ports are:
21/tcp ftp
22/tcp ssh
53/tcp domain
80/tcp http
110/tcp pop3
143/tcp imap
443/tcp https
587/tcp submission
993/tcp imaps
995/tcp pop3s
3306/tcp mysql
when i use scan firewall protected for a Network
# nmap -sA 192.168.1.77
You requested a scan type which requires root privileges.
QUITTING!
what tools to be used rather than nmap to take control over hacking?
any ideas or concept how to stop this nuisance
referring to here for using nmap
I am trying to write a script that will enable xampp start and xampp stop with the same script without having to write in the terminal everytime.

How to make a script executable which allows xampp to start and stop simultaneously when double clicked ? Any idea is always welcomed.

I have installed Ubuntu 13.04 and now fully dependent on it.
I have worked on mysql query browser in windows to run queries and procedures and programmers ,i could not find any other alternatives in Ubuntu 13.04 which is fast,lightweight,and simple.
I had a look on mysql workbench but forums didn't gave any positive feedbacks regarding workbench as it freezes and complicated to use and run simple procedures. what to use that is similar to query browser in Ubuntu.
i have installed Xampp(LAMPP) in Ubuntu 13.04 . i have secured the xampp phpmyadmin Mysql FTP. status showing ACTIVATED.now, i have installed mysql server.in terminal write mysql -u root -p and then password and i connect with my mysql commandline. now SHOW DATABASES; i can only see information_chema,performance_schema and test mysql and also showing db(abc) the created databases from the terminal command line. i can drop this 'abc' database from terminal but abc is not showing in phpmyadmin.and databse created in phpmyadmin not showing in terminal with show databses;.
also could not drop databases from phpmyadmin drop database statements are disabled allowing me to create only.
thnks for any help.
As i have learnt that being a super-user in linux/ubuntu we can unlock those task which is being hide out from other user so to avoid messing with the files and directories.Now i want to know upto which extent does superuser work with files.now that i have got my phpmyadmin files in /opt/lampp/phpmyadmin i want to configure my config.inc.php i found that with a superuser i cant edit and save the changes permission deinied. so far i have done is sudo passwd root then typed in my user pass and then password for unix and confirm. now i logged in as root by su and then password. i could not edit the changes.i found with sudo nautilus i could do the task and also copy and paste files from my home directory to other partition which i created that could not be done with a SU. and 1 more thing idk but can a normal user easily change root password as its only need to type in user password.
i was wondering about how to start xampp in my ubuntu 13.04 just with a script, i end up with a script that will start xampp after i start my machine automatically. what i did is : sudo gedit /etc/init.d/lampp
a lampp file open with gedit. then
#!/bin/bash
/opt/lampp/lampp start
paste it in lampp
to make it executable
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/lampp
run following command to install init scripts to all runlevel
sudo update-rc.d lampp defaults
i got success after i rebooted and xampp starts automatically but when rebooting a script is running in a black background which i think is initialising the xampp and starting it.
now i want to remove it as its forcing xampp to start with bootloader.so for that i opened lamp file again in gedit and removed the lines #!/bin/bash
/opt/lampp/lampp start . my xampp is not starting after a reboot but the script is initialising with bootloader before login screen come. is there a way to rever that update command or stop it by default?
and also after that i am facing a serious screen resolution problem where my screen comes to type laptop and 640 reso before i was running in 1024*768 with 75hz . i have configured it with monitors.xml file located in home/config/monitors.xml i have updated my nvidia drivers with sudo apt-get install nvidia-current.and i could not configure nvidia drivers by typing gksu nvidia-xconfig its asking for admin password when i enter it exiting. the admin password i guess i am giving wrong putting my username password
thnks for the help in adv.

Now I have opened terminal and selected BASH(default) by typing echo $SHELL to write a script I found that a editor is the choise like vi or vim.

I have dual-booted Ubuntu using Wubi from win7 in a separate G: drive. Now where can I find my NVIDIA control panel that is installed in Windows 7?
Or do I have to install it again in Ubuntu? If yes, how do I do that?
I am using NVIDIA Geforce 9600GT
As I have installed Ubuntu from Wubi, does it means that I am using Windows 7 with an Ubuntu interface, so if Windows crashes the Ubuntu install will not work either? please help with the logic to clear my views with Wubi and a normal Ubuntu install via USB/DVD.
am new to linux/ubuntu. mayb finding it difficult to access all the features . i have dual booted ubuntu 12.04 along with windows 7 using WUBI.the installation is done in separate drive G: where the windiws is in Drive C: i started ubuntu 12.04 after reboot everythng works fine and showing all the drives alongwith Drive G .after i unmounted the drive from the desktop panel to get rid of the unneccesary drive list . now i could not find it in HOME FOLDER drive list. showing all the drives after unmounting but the Drive G is not found.tried to look into some tutorials but no success.and 1 more thing i can see the config files of windows like desktop.ini in all the drives which i think is hidden from using windows. what happen if i delete the file from ubuntu desktop.ini. will it affect windows later? thnx
