I am using Ubuntu 11.04. I am also using xampp 1.7.4.It always says it needs to be run as root, however some people have mentioned that it poses a great security risk.So how do i run xampp without being root?
View 2 RepliesNot sure why, but the last couple of tiems I have started xampp from root terminal, I have got this message after each program start.
Warning a bogus unix line
Since that last time it was not there, other that add sweb spahes etc., I have only tried to unpack the Control Panel which was unsuccesfull anyway saying I needed some other programs.
i installed xampp using a tutorial posted here, but now the issue is i dont have priviledge to that directory. currently the xampp folder is located in /opt/
and i cant seem to fig out how i can get privil to that folder. (my user is "nate" not root
i was trying to move xampp's root directory from /opt/lampp/htdocs to /home/private/htdocs (in order to use Ubuntu One) but when i restarted apache i got "permission denied" when i tried to load the index page.so i said to my self...hey..let's chmod
i entered this three commands in terminal:
Code:
sudo chmod -R 755 /home/private/htdocs
sudo chmod 755 /home/private
sudo chmod 755 /home
('private' is my username)
after a couple of seconds everything begun to disapper, shortcuts on my desktop, my wallpaper...all.i even tried to execute another command with sudo but i got a nice error message that said i don't have permissions to execute bla bla.now i can't even log into my user.

We have installed apache 2.2.15 webserver on A rhel 5 Linux 64 box using the user wwwadm group www
We can start the webserver using root and it works fine but we dont have root access forever so we want the wwwadm user to have all the rights and we can start/stop/restart the Apache server using this wwwadm user.
I have written a simple perl program to add a command to iptables. Here is my code :
Code:
#! /usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html
";
system("iptables -A FORWARD -s 192.168.0.2 -j DROP");
I put this file in cgi-bin folder of Apache server. Here is my problem : when I run this file with shell as root user it makes change to iptables, but when I use my browser to run this file, it doesn't make any change. I'm sure this is because Apache doesn't have permission to manipulate iptables. How can I start Apache as a user with root privileges ?
I am looking for Windows Search equivalent looking for file name patterns (not file contents but file names)....
I am aware of "globbing" and wildcard recursive search functionality in ls but I am still not capable of finding files under directories.
for example: I want to find all files starting with a string lsnr* under root directory / and any sub-directories.....
ie I want to look for files like lsnr*.* anywhere under / and any sub-directories under / such as /dir1/dir2/dir4 and dir1/other/dir/someotherdir/sub-dir etc.
so if I have /dir1/lsnrcontrol and also have /dir1/dir/2/dir3/lsnr-tinit.dat then I want to list the files names etc.
how to do this using ls -R and wildcards.
I recently "upgraded" to the latest skype and now every time I open an interactive root shell, up pops skype. I can close skype then control-C in the terminal window to get the shell I want, but this is annoying to say the least. Maybe my google-foo is off, but all I can find is articles on how to run skype as root, which is no use. I've tried searching the startup files for "skype" (case independant), but so far all I can find is "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ /usr/bin/skype" in the root .bashrc which shouldn't be starting the app.
what could be causing this?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am a new user to the linux world. I am trying to put together a working configuration of Ubuntu 10.04 with XAMPP 1.7.1. (final goal is working kalturaCE application). Anyway, I've gone through all the installation guidelines that I could find and was able to get ubuntu installed (very easy) along with the other two apps. I can successfully browse to the kaltura app from the local network but I cannot get to it from the outside world (cannot get to kaltura or the base XAMPP file)? Is there a configuration where I could have possibly only told apache to respond to localhost and local lan?

I'm using ubuntu 9.10 64bit and I'want to configure php mysql and lampp. Also the package mysql-ser is already installed, so if I install MYSQL GUI tools(Administrator, query browser..) from my synaptic package manager will it detect the mysql already installed ? Also tried configuring lampp by extracting it in my /opt directory and i started the server, which MySQL ll it detect the one which was previously installed otr the oin that in gui tools ?
Also think the current ubuntu repository does't have latest build of mysql GUI tools, so how the above mentioned things ll change if I try to download the individual package.
Oveall what I want is to configure Mysql GUI tools, Mysql workbench, xampp and php(For this I'm using Bluefish and Komposer). Please help me out so that I can leave windows for my Web-projects.
I'm trying to run Xampp so that I can test Drupal out. I'm running Lucid Lynx Beta. I'm having a lot of trouble getting Xampp to run. I downloaded Xampp version 1.7.3a and installed it but when I type http://localhost in Firefox to see if Xampp is working it just says:

This is the default web page for this server. The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.
I have an Ubuntu latest box that runs as a server for my xampp. And then an old windows laptop to connect with, this is for web development purposes. When I boot up windows I try and access the local ip of the server = it works. But after awhile.. maybe a few mins or an hour windows cannot connect anymore of Ubuntu, I always get "Internet explorer cannot display the webpage" error. I tried ping and it would not work, I'm quite sure the IP did not change at all. I reboot and try again, it works. I reboot again to test, it doesn't work.
I don't get it, =/ Ubuntu doesn't have any form of firewall, just the default settings. Both could use the internet but oftentimes fail for local networking...

View 2 Replies View Relatedi would like to know how many connections per sec/min/hour, xampp can handle. I'm going to run SMF forum on my box, because i'm not ready yet with real server solution. System stats are: G31M-S2C; 2x2GB Kingston@920Mhz; E5200@3500Mhz; 500GB@7200 Seagate, all powered by Lucid x64. In a time i will migrate to a quad, mobo with raid support, etc. but at that point i'm want to know how much connections can xampp handle. Because of the forum nature, i think of auto deleting topics witn no new replys in 5 days for saving place (there will be minimum 1 and maybe max 5 photos per thread, maximum size 2Mb for each).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have recently set up my web server using the LAMPP package for Ubuntu. Now I'm running Ubuntu Server 10 so my machine boots into the console and not gdm. Also I have my machine autologin as root so I can simply turn my server on and not mess around with logins. Now I created a simple shellscript for starting lampp and then I put it into etc/init.d/, chmod -x file.sh to give it executable permissions, then I update-rc.d file.sh defaults but nothing happens on startup. It simple takes me to the console and nothing more happens. I have to manually start lampp on every bootup.

I can access my local html websites via localhost - but my Drupal sites ( I don't have any other dynamic sites so I don't know if it's Drupal related or database related exactly) only show front page, but incomplete, and all links go to 404s.

XAMPP: Couldn't start MySQL! I have Ubuntu 11.4. After downloading XAMPP, I went to my Downloads. I then went to the Folder (xampp-linux-1.7.4.tar.gz) and right clicked on it. The options window opened, and I selected "Extract Here"! after doing so a Folder called lampp appeared. The next step I did was open my Terminal and typed ( sudo nautilus / ). I pressed Enter and a window with a bunch Folders opened up. I selected, and opened the opt Folder. I then dragged the lampp Folder to the opt Folder.
The lampp Folder is now in the opt Folder. I right clicked on the lampp Folder and selected Properties, and then the Permissions tap. I set all 3 Folder access: -to- Create delete files and all 3 File access: -to- Read and write. I checked Allow executing file as program, and Apply Permissions to Enclosed Files button, then closed. I went back to Terminal and typed (sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start) and pressed Enter. Everything is working fine execpt MySQL!
