Hi,

When I download xampp for linux and put the tar file in /opt open terminal and type:
tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.6.6.tar.gz -C /opt
I get the following error message:

tar: xampp-linux-1.6.6.tar.gz: Functie open() is mislukt: file or directory does not exist
tar: Fout is niet herstelbaar -- tar sluit nu af.
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Uitgestelde afbreking na eerdere fouten

Did I do something wrong?
And what might that be then?

Thanks in advance for answering and kind regards,

You downloaded the wrong language version.

Else you have to open the terminal in the directory where the xampp. gz is located, OR in a terminal, cd into the directory where xampp is located.
