Mysql not starting

Problems with the Linux version of XAMPP, questions, comments, and anything related.

Mysql not starting

Postby gerbreown » 07. November 2013 13:23

I have upgraded my OS to Ubuntu 13.10 and now my XAMPP for Linux 1.8.3.1 mysql will not start. When I do a "sudo /opt/lampp/lampp restart" it says mysql is not running and then it says start OK. If I run the command again I get the same results.

On the http://localhost/xampp/index.php page for status it shows mysql as being "deactivated"

Any ideas on how I can get mysql running???

Thanks.

Try uninstall XAMPP
Code: Select all
sudo rm -rf /opt/lampp

After it, uninstall Apache2, MySQL, PHP5
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove apache2

Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove mysql-server

Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove php5 libapache2-mod-php5


RE-Install XAMPP

Worked for me :D
