it fails also in the other direction.
If I understand you correctly you are using the Windows Installer version of OTRS and trying to overwrite the XAMPP files with the OTRS files.
This will never work!!!

..but not if XAMPP is also installed on the notebook, correct?
I found this doing a Google for
otrs xampp:
http://doc.otrs.org/1.3/en/html/install-win32.htmlStep-by-Step: The Manual InstallationIt looks like this old version was built using XAMPP so the link may hold some installation clues for the newer versions.
http://doc.otrs.org/2.3/en/html/x284.htmlYou need to have XAMPP installed and working by being able to go to
http://localhost and have the XAMPP Welcome Page served and all the demos in the left hand menu working.
You will also have to download and install the
XAMPP Perl Addon 5.10.0-2.2.9 from SourceForgeThen you will need to download the perl packages OTRS::ITSM - read
Download OTRS::ITSM 1.2 on the download page.
Then and only then can you add OTRS but
not using the Windows Installer version but by downloading the zip source file and unpacking to a folder in the htdocs of XAMPP - then following the documentation with regard to configuring Apache, MySQL (database) and lots more. You need to read the documentation in detail to get a handle on what you have to do, it's all there if you take the time to read it.
Read and use the Mailing lists where the community can help you better.
http://doc.otrs.org/2.3/en/html/x2637.htmlI really don't think that it is as simple as you might think to install, after reading the documentation and the info on the download page it is quite a complex script to install if you are not using the Installer but trying to have it work with an XAMPP type component system - you also need to understand how the XAMPP components are interlinked.
I hope this helps you to look into how you approach the installation using XAMPP and UTRS - there is not much else I can suggest...
...but I am going to download the zip file and have a go at installing it, when I have some spare time.
