Problem starting XAMPP in Open Suse

Hi everyone,

I've installed XAMPP on Open Suse Leap and I get this error message when I attempt to start in the terminal (I sanitized my name by using mmmmmmmmmm:

The error message about netstat occurs because openSUSE has removed it from the net-tools package. It should go away if you install the package net-tools-deprecated.
