I'm really a beginner with this software.
My goal is not to try a website under development, I'm just trying to learn PHP.
When I look at the tutorials on Youtube, everything looks really easy. They create .php documents, place them in a htdocs folder on their desktop or in their /home and with one click, they open their favorite browser which displays the .php page.
Personally, I installed the software and launched it with the terminal :
- Code: Select all
sudo /opt/lampp/lampp satart
who shows me:
- Code: Select all
Starting XAMPP for Linux 7.4.13-0...
XAMPP: Starting Apache...already running.
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...already running.
XAMPP: Starting ProFTPD...already running.
When I launch the command :
- Code: Select all
sudo /opt/lampp/manager-linux-x64.run
the mistletoe window is displayed. But if I click on "Go to Application", the terminal returns the mistletoe window is displayed. But if I click on "Go to Application" the terminal returns "the menu, applications, Faqs, How To Guides, PHPInfo, phpMyAdmin and Welcome to XAMPP plus all descriptions.
I found the htdocs folder in /opt/lampp which contains several files including a file named index.php.
So I tried this file : 127.0.0.1/opt/lampp/htdocs/index.php in the browser bar which sends me back to http://localhost/dashboard/ with the usual page.
So that's where I am. I don't understand much about it.
I looked on the Net, tried to follow your faq, but no order is validated by Manjaro.
Can someone help me?
Thank you very much.
