Change XAMPP's Htdocs Web Root Folder To Another One
Answer :
Open /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf
change nobody and nogroup
<IfModule unixd_module> # # If you wish httpd to run as a different user or group, you must run # httpd as root initially and it will switch. # # User/Group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run httpd as. # It is usually good practice to create a dedicated user and group for # running httpd, as with most system services. # User nobody Group nogroup </IfModule>
to your username and your group
Had the same issue and here is what i did:
Run this command to stop xampp:
sudo /opt/lampp/lampp stop
Open /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf
Change your_folder to the folder you wanna use
DocumentRoot "/home/username/your_folder" <Directory "/home/username/your_folder">
Change User
& Group
value from daemon
to:
User nobody Group nogroup
set chmod to your_folder with this command
sudo chmod 777 /home/username/your_folder
Save the file and start xampp with this command:
sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
Open your browser and enter this url:
http://localhost/your_folder/
Done, hope this helps.
