How to Install XAMPP on Windows,Mac,Linux

 

Hi guys How are you all ? hope you all are well. Today i have an new topic Yes that was Installtion Of XAMPP on windows,Mac, & linux. First let me tell you what was XAMPP ? Manny you know this very well and for some user's it was new so i ex plane little bit information about XAMPP.

 XAMPP

XAMPP is a free and open source cross-platform web server solution stack package, consisting mainly of the Apache HTTP Server, MySQL database, and interpreters for scripts written in the PHP and Perl programming languages.Officially, XAMPP's designers intended it for use only as a development tool, to allow website designers and programmers to test their work on their own computers without any access to the Internet. To make this as easy as possible, many important security features are disabled by default. In practice, however, XAMPP is sometimes used to actually serve web pages on the World Wide Web A special tool is provided to password-protect the most important parts of the package.


XAMPP also provides support for creating and manipulating databases in MySQL and SQLite among others.

Once XAMPP is installed, it is possible to treat a localhost like a remote host by connecting using an FTP client. Using a program like FileZilla has many advantages when installing a content management system (CMS) like Joomla. It is also possible to connect to localhost via FTP with a HTML editor.

The default FTP user is "newuser", the default FTP password is "wampp".
The default MySQL user is "root" while there is no default MySQL password.

Installing XAMPP on Windows

1. Download the software For Windows from: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#641
   Download the software For Linux From : SourceForge.
   Download The Software For Mac From : here
   
   
   
   Ans Follw these step's for all os first select the Installer option under the Basic Package. You may be taken to a page that presents you with a bunch of different download locations. Just click one of the download buttons, and then save the file to your desktop. Once downloaded, the installer works like most Windows installers.
   
   
   In Internet Explorer, you may get a warning about downloading the file. Click the yellow information bar that appears above the Web page in IE, and choose Download File… 
    
2. Double-click the .exe file you downloaded.
   A window opens, asking you to select the language you’d like to use.
   
   If a warning dialog appears click the "Allow" option to install XAMPP.
    
3. Choose a language from the menu, and then click OK.
   A Setup Wizard window appears, ready to step you through the setup process.
   
   In Vista you may see a message warning you that XAMPP may not work when installed in the C:\Program Files directory. The default installation is in C:\XAMPP so you don’t have to worry about this problem.
    
4. Click the Next button.
   The installer suggests putting the application on your main drive at C:\XAMPP. You can pretty much install it anywhere, but with the Vista operating system you may encounter problems if you install it in C:\Program Files.
   
   
5. Click the Next button once again.
   The XAMPP Options window appears (see below). In most cases, it’s fine to leave all the window’s checkboxes just as you see; see the note below for details.
   
   
   
   If you plan on doing a lot of development, day in and day out, you might want to turn on the “Install Apache as service” and “Install MySQL as service” checkboxes. A service starts up every time you turn on your computer, so Apache, PHP, and MySQL are always running. However, if you won’t be building database sites frequently, or you don’t have a lot of RAM in your computer, don’t turn on these boxes (you’ll just have to manually start the servers when you wish to build dynamic pages, using the XAMPP control panel described on the next page).
   
   
6. Click Install.
   The installer places all the files onto your system. This process takes a while, since a lot of programs and files are being installed.
   
   
7. Finally, click the Finish button.
   A window appears “congratulating” you (way to double-click the installer program!), and asking whether you wish to start the XAMPP Control panel.
   
   
8. Click Yes, to open the XAMPP Control Panel (see screenshot below).
   The XAMPP Control Panel lets you start and stop the Apache Web server and MySQL database server.
   
   
   
   In this figure, both Apache and MySQL are currently NOT running, as indicated by the word Start to the right of their names. Click the Start buttons to turn the servers on. You can open the Control Panel by clicking the XAMPP Control Panel shortcut on your desktop.
   
   
9. If the buttons to the right of Apache and MySQL say Start, click them to start the Web server and the MySQL database server.
   You probably get a Windows security alert about both MySQL and Apache: Click the Unblock button in both cases. This action allows the two servers to run, and tells the Windows firewall protection service that everything is OK.If Apache and MySQL are already running, these buttons say Stop. (Clicking them turns off the Web server and MySQL.) Whenever you start Apache, PHP automatically starts as well. At this point, you should have a complete testing server running on your machine. You just need to make sure it’s working.
   
   
10. To do so, launch a Web browser, and, in the Location bar, type http://localhost/.
    You encounter a page that lists a bunch of languages; click the language you prefer, and you’re taken to a kind of Web-based control panel for XAMPP (see screenshot below).
    
    
    
    Once installed, you can view your XAMPP home page from http://localhost/xampp/. From the left-hand list of links, you can access helpful programs and information, such as phpMyAdmin (for working with the MySQL database) and phpinfo() for finding out more about the server setup.
    

Once you’ve installed XAMPP, you’ll see a shortcut called XAMPP Control Panel on your desktop. Double-click this icon to control the servers you’ve just installed—you can turn the servers off and on, as well as turn them into services (which launch each time you start up your computer).

To uninstall XAMPP, just go to the location where you installed XAMPP (like C:\XAMPP\) and run the program named Uninstall.exe. This action, however, deletes any databases you created, and destroys any Web pages that you placed on the server. To prevent this process, just follow these steps: First, use phpMyAdmin to export any database you wish to save (you can find instructions at http://php.about.com/od/learnmysql/ss/mysql_backup_3.htm), and then make a copy of your Web pages which are located in the C:\XAMPP\htdocs folder.

How you Can Make An Operating System Like Lunix

Hello everyone today i gonna tell you a new thing how you can make your own operating system almost like lunix. guys if you ever heard about luinx then you will know that there was over 1,000 different lunix operating systems. and you don't have time to see & check them all. so it a chance to possible that your operating system will match one of them but you quiet happy because you make an operating system by your own.Creating your own operating system is very difficult task because you have to know about C++/C,Visual basis, And Manny other programming languages and many more things ...but i have an easy way.

So lets start making a new lunix based operating system first you need to go http://www.susestudio.com and take a look for yourself.


The whole concept of SUSE Studio is quite simple. I’m very impressed with SUSE Studio. It allows you to completely customise a Linux distribution and actually try it out (in the browser!) before you download it. This is, in my opinion, a pretty novel concept. At least at this scale.

Being able to have this control before you download the distribution obviously saves you from downloading a load of components that you don’t want. But the benefits don’t stop there:

• Performing the administrative tasks of setting up the system can be performed before installation. This means a system can be deployed many times with minimum effort. Products like Xen and VMware provide cost-effective ways to host several different systems together and keep them isolated from each other. If one of your applications breaks, the others are (potentially) isolated from the problem.

• Applications can be deployed and run in a pre-specified environment. This means their behaviour will be more predictable, and it will be easier to provide support for them. If a client is reporting problems, it will be much easier to replicate them yourself in a test environment.

Now back to the topic Once you're signed in, head to your "Home" screen and click the "Create new appliance" link in the upper-right. SUSE Studio calls each bootable system you create an "appliance" throughout the process. You'll be asked to choose your "base template," which includes the GNOME and KDE desktops, a Just Enough OS (jeOS) option, and server or command-line-only choices. Most folks will want to lean toward GNOME or KDE setups, as they're the most familiar graphical environments. If you're familiar with Linux enough to know how to build a login manager and desktop from a command line system, though, go ahead and play around—you can't really hurt anything.

Now Choose your software

This is the real meat and potatoes of creating a system. Click the "Software" tab and check out the packages already going into your system.



Based on your selection of a GNOME desktop, and SUSE Studio assuming you want the Linux basics needed to boot, a few packages and repositories are already installed for you. They're based on a basic installation of OpenSUSE, but you could wipe the slate clean and start over with another RPM-based repository, if you so chose.



If you wanted to add Firefox to your system, simply search for it in the search bar farther down the page. Results from the repositories you've chosen appear, and you can click "Add+" to load them into your system, with dependencies and other needed packages automatically included. What if you don't see something you know runs on Linux—like, say, Google Chrome? Find an RPM-formatted package, like those I found at Ben Kevan's blog, or add in a repository URL that carries regular updates. Generally, a good Google search for the name of your program and "OpenSUSE" should yield fruit. Hit the "Upload and Manage RPMs" link near the top of the Software page, and you'll be able to upload from your computer, or point to a file on the web. What's really neat is, once you upload your RPM files, you'll have a special repository created for you that can be loaded into any system you build with SUSE Studio.

And Most Important Change the look and feel

Once you're done tinkering with your apps, head over to the Configuration tab to mess with your eye candy and determine how your system will boot up. Start at the "General" sub-section, making sure to change the user name at bottom to something other than "Tux" and change the password away from the standard "linux." You can set how you want your system to find a network connection (anything other than the manual or no-network options should be fine), and whether to enable a firewall.



The Personalize section only has two parameters, but who doesn't like to see their own logos and backgrounds stamped on a system? Next over, make sure the "Startup" section has you set to boot into a graphical login. Under "Desktop," you can set the OS to automatically boot to a desktop for faster start-up times, and the "Configuration" field lets those planning to install to a disk or USB drive, or run in a virtual machine, fine-tune their memory and disk use settings. "Overlay files" and "Scripts" can mostly be skipped, unless you've got documents you need to have in your test system or already work at a high level of Linux knowledge.

Finally Its Time to Grab and boot your Operating System

The "Build" section is where you get the good stuff. Pick the format you'd like to download, whether an ISO for creating a CD/DVD, a disk image for hard disk or USB transfer, or a ready-made virtual machine file for VirtualBox or VMWare. Choose your format, set a version number, and that build will always be available for downloading or "cloning."

So guys hope you enjoy this post very well and now it's your time to build your own operating system ...
