I get this same error, I followed the instructions (tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.5.3a.tar.gz -C /opt), but when I enter:
/opt/lampp/lampp start
It just keeps saying:
Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.5.3a
lampp: line 110 lampp: command not found
lampp: line 111 lampp: command not found
lampp: line 112 lampp: command not found
XAMPP for Linux started.
I looked in the lampp file and the code that apply to those line numbers are:
$0 startapache %
$0 startmysql %
$0 startftp %
Can anyone help me with this... I've tried it on MandrivaOne and after not being able to get it to work I uninstalled it and replaced it with Xandros 3 but I still get the same error.
