Whenever I check the status for XAMPP with

sudo /opt/lampp/lampp status

I get that everything is running at the moment. But when I use this command:

sudo service apache2 status

Get this output:

 apache2.service - The Apache HTTP Server
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/apache2.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

Why is this happening and how to solve it?

  • You will need to check the `error.log` in order to get a complete error report. However, looking at the messages, it seems another application is already listening to the ports that your XAMPP installation is trying to grab. Does your system have nginx or Apache installed (not as part of XAMPP)? – matigo Dec 20 '21 at 04:52
