I downloaded XAMPP 5.6.19.
After the installation was completed successfully, I was able to start both Apache and MySQL/MariaDB. I even installed the services.
Getting to the http://127.0.0.1/ is no problem.
However the wheels come off when you want to secure the system by attending to the following:
The MySQL administrator (root) has no password.
The MySQL daemon is accessible via network.
PhpMyAdmin is accessible via network.
The XAMPP demopage is accessible via network.
Error 404! Object not found error is raised when you want to navigate to http://localhost/security.
Your advice and comments will be valued in the resolution of this issue.
Thanks in advance,
