Hi! I'm using the chrome linux feature and am trying to install Xampp. I have got to the installation wizard (finally). However, when I run it I am faced with the error that says: error creating directory /opt/lamp

Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it? Thanks.

p.s. i'm pretty inexperienced with this stuff.

I have attached a video of what happens at the link below (its google drive link and you don't download it plays in the browser.

Please follow the FAQ for Xampp Linux https://www.apachefriends.org/faq_linux.html

You cannot install Xampp by simply clicking the installer. Read the the very first advice "How do I install Xampp?"

Thank you so much man. I really should start to read directions better hahah!
