I have XAMPP running on port 8080, however if I select the admin button opposite MySQL on the console it goes looking for port 80 so does not find phpmyadmin, If I enter the url http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin/ it logs in asking for pwd etc, I would assume that you can change the settings for the button on the console so it will goto phpmyadmin through 8080?

If so could someone advise me in which file as I am unable to locate anything for this setting.

Thanks

What I want to be able to do if possible is when I press the Admin button is for it to locate the localhost/phpmyadmin rather than at the moment because it is searching using 80 is saying broken link

At the moment, the Control Panel (and thus XAMPP for Windows) is in a hiatus. This is due to internal issues in the XAMPP Project.

The source code for the Control Panel is not available for inspection, so it has to be reverse-engineeered/deconstructed. BigWetDog made some progress, ND I believe he concluded that many of the functions are hard-coded. (So I think the answer is no)

Either search on Members for BigWetDog and/or Search this forum for 'XAMPP Control Panel'.

this is specific to your interest:

Good Luck

Thanks JonB

dashby,
JonB is spot on.
Earlier on in the second link he posted, check out the info on xampp.ini

Just change the value for apache in the [ports] section.

The next release of the control panel will likely retain support for xampp.ini but no gaurantee
