This is how I did it:

1. Download the installer from Apache Friend: XAMPP for Linux v5.6.8 (PHP 5.6.8)

2. Assuming you have downloaded into your 'Downloads' folder. Open a terminal:

Code: Select all

cd Downloasds

Code: Select all

chmod 755 xampp-linux-*-installer.run

Code: Select all

sudo ./xampp-linux-*-installer.run

Your htdocs folder is located in: /opt/lampp/htdocs

Code: Select all

sudo /opt/lampp/lampp security

Thank you so much. I used your tips (with some additional sleuthing) to acquire and install a newer version of the XAMPP package on Linux Mint 17.2.
