I have just reinstalled LAMPP. When I try starting LAMPP using /opt/lampp/lampp start, it says another ftp and mysql daemon is already running along with another web server. I deleted the old instance of LAMPP without stopping all the services. When I use service --status-all these services aren't listed.

Is there any way I can stop it now?

Yes, with this : pkill -f apache; pkill -f httpd

You can run that on each service you want to stop.

To test if it's still running, try pgrep -fl <APP_NAME>.

If it's the case, consider using pkill -1 -f <APP_NAME> and if still present pkill -9 -f <APP_NAME>. -9 is the higher signal. Don't use -9 by default, you will facing problems with not well closed applications (file descriptors and other system stuff)

see man 7 signal.
