Since the original package from Apache and friends is bigger... I just wonder what made it smaller... Is it compression or removal of something?

Actually I posted a question about the xampp and shrinking the size and was told to ask you Waton:-)

thank you

I created this sfs using xz compression and block size 512k. I stole it from slax :D

Code: Select all

$MKSQUASHFS $SRC $SFS -comp xz -noappend -b 512k

thank you !

#2002 - No such file or directory when trying to get to phpmyadmin panel.
MySQL servise cannnot be launched from "xampp control panel"
OS puppyrus PR13.05. What possible causes may be? How to solve?
Well. Unpacked your sfs-file. Changed strings in file my.cnf: socket = /tmp/mysql.sock ; & in php.ini: mysql.default_socket = /tmp/mysql.sock. Packed. Loaded. apache2 works, mysql's not:

Code: Select all

# /mnt/.xampp-1.8.1.pfs/opt/lampp/mysql start
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...
XAMPP: Couldn't start MySQL!
#
don't mention, /mnt/.file.pfs is our package system.

Well. command "strace" says:

Code: Select all

open("/lib/tls/i686/sse2/libncurses.so.5", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
do I understand it right?: my task is to create/put that library on that path? or should I better compile xammp from scratch?
Is your pet from arch?

Just installed this on upup raring 3.9.9.2. All I can say is "wow" an entire LAMP(P) stack downloaded, installed and started in about 30 seconds from beginning to end. And that on an 8 year old laptop. The mini gui control console doesn't seem to be able to start everything up (as mentioned in the post above) but the normal "/opt/lampp/lampp start" (See http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html ) worked fine.

Slight niggle in that phpMyAdmin came up in German but the option to switch to English is on the MyAdmin home screen

Thanks to the uploader. If you see this any plans to make an SFS of XAMPP 1.83?

this worked for me

I had a similar problem with everything apart from mysql installing smoothly on slacko puppy v.5.4 or 5.5.

the process was easy: downloaded xampp 1.8.2 for linux and changed its permissions (the .run script)

Code: Select all

# chmod 755 xampp-.....run
But it would result in few errors along the way:
error running useradd -r mysql : /bin/sh: useradd: command not found

problem running post-install step.
installation may not complete correctly
error running chown -R root:mysql /opt/lampp/var/mysql :
chown: unknown user/group root:mysql
So I added manually the user and group mysql

Code: Select all

# addgroup mysql
# adduser -G mysql mysql
it was recommended on a site to run at /opt/lampp:

Code: Select all

# chown -R root . 
# chown -R mysql /opt/lampp/var
# chgrp -R mysql .
# chown -R root:mysql /opt/lampp/var/mysql
after these I installed the ./xampp.....run script again. Yeah - a bit lazy.. no deleting files or anything..

The problem seemed to be, in my opinion, that the xampp installer tries to use useradd - which doesn't exist in puppy (at least slacko). In Slacko puppy it's adduser.

mysql can be started with /opt/lampp/lampp startmysql
or /opt/lampp/lampp restart

hopefully that is of help for someone.

Then download the latest, directly from the xampp site, and follow the install instructions.
There will be problems, but these can be sorted, see rojun's post above.
I did this a while ago, so can't remember the exact commands I used.
I did it a bit different from rojun, because all the files in the lampp directory are owned by "nobody:nobody" in my install. So I might have changed both apache and mysql configs so they run as "nobody".
I currently running xampp 5.6.15-1.

Hi Gyro... thanks for the tips...

I made a spinnoff based on Super Lucid Puppy the Lupu 004.

The customization that is made is that its tanked up with:

Xampp PHP7(2-3 times faster than PHP5.X they say)
Joomla 3.5Beta6 with PHP7 support(installed, but untouched)
Wlanmaker 1.2 that uses hostadp to create a AP of you wifichip(if supported)

Desktop icons to start and stop xampp. Also to start and stop the AP function.

Note that the desktop icon for start/stop AP goes missing after install. Just drag it out of its folder /root/scripts/ to have it back on desktop.

This is made for those that like to experiment a little and that wants the latest and greatest here and now:-)

SULU004(5.2.8.7)

http://www.mediafire.com/download/l183o ... -puppy.iso

UPDATE...

LUPU 5.2.8.7 also ready

http://www.mediafire.com/download/31pgt ... Joomla.iso

PS... If you got a 64 bits computer there is another version available based on fatdog, but its not a iso, but rather two compressed files that needs grub4dos to get it into the game. That one has some more things done with Joomla whereas one can upload and download files to the server.
Has also wlanmaker etc.

I just discovered XAMPP and decided to dabble with PHP for a bit, which was very interesting. I really like this package, and I really appreciate the work you put into it.

I was wondering though, for those of us who have a frugal install and depend on keeping our savefile nice and trim, would it at all be possible to have a setup in which the server would run outside the savefile?

You could create a website without having to worry about any size constraints.

Or is there a very easy way to configure the current XAMPP package to achieve this?

Got some good news for you there Solo...

And it all depends on what puppy your using.

The different puppies have different savefile names, so even with all the variants Rerwin have made out of 5.2.8.7, you can have several of them at the same partition without that crashing with savefiles.

So what puppy are you using?

Right now the offering is Lupu5.2.8.7, Sulu004(5.2.8.7) and FatDog.

The two next is Tahrpup with PAE and then something for the oldies(486)

I'm quite firmly stuck in the 'oldies' camp, running Puppy Precise 5.7.1.

There's no hurry though. My knowledge of webdesign comes from an era when framesets were still the fashion, so let's just say I won't be rolling out any fancy web applications any time soon.

I'm slowly but faithfully typing my way through beginners tutorials at this point.
