i've tried to download XAMPP, untar it in /opt/lampp and launch

sudo ./lamp start

but i get this output:

Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.7.7...

XAMPP: Another web server daemon is already running.

XAMPP: Starting MySQL...

XAMPP: Couldn't start MySQL!

XAMPP: XAMPP-ProFTPD is already running.

XAMPP for Linux started.

so i opened synaptic and i have installed mysql server.

now i have 2 problems, if i restart my ubuntu 10.10:

every time i restart my ubuntu i have to retype

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop

if after stop mysql daemon i relaunch lampp i get same message: XAMPP: Couldn't start MySQL!

/var/log/mysql.err and /var/log/mysql.log are empty..

I've resolved in this way:

sudo chmod -R 777 /opt/lampp

sudo chown -hR nobody /opt/lampp

sudo chmod -R 755 /opt/lampp

then I noticed that I have another mysqld instance running and stoped it with:

sudo service mysql stop
