I have recently installed xampp using the following commands:

$ wget https://www.apachefriends.org/xampp-files/5.6.20/xampp-linux-x64-5.6.20-0-installer.run
$ chmod +x xampp-linux-x64-5.6.20-0-installer.run
$ sudo ./xampp-linux-x64-5.6.20-0-installer.run

After setting up xampp the other two server are running but MySQl server is not running after starting it

XAMPP

What is the problem and how can I fix it?I am using ubuntu 16.04

It's because the mysql installed in ubuntu takes over the port which will inturn block the mysql of xampp. try removing mysql completely from ubuntu and try again. use following commands to uninstall mysql

sudo apt-get purge mysql*

sudo apt-get autoremove

sudo apt-get autoclean

and now start your xampp.It worked for me.
