Im trying to install xampp and I cant I got this message

@penguin:/opt/lampp$ sudo ./manager-linux-x64.run

The Xampp FAQ recommends to start Xampp via Shellscript:

Code: Select all

sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start

The "manager-gui" does not run properly on many linux distributions. Not recommended. Your problem is a well known linux Xauth problem of the X Server running different User in your own Userspace. You have to know Linux properly to solve it.
