[ubuntu-in] LAMP versus XAMP

[Ramnarayan.K]

Hi

Have been trying to install the L"AMP" stack. The AMP portion seems to be
succesfull (of coure the L part is already there) - all the AMP tests are
good. But then am trying to install Joomla and get an error

"Could not connect to the database. Connector returned number: Could not
connect to MySQL."

Tried googling but have not been able to find any good solutions. But am
now thinking of installing XAMPP , which it seems is good for non
production servers and is good for offline use and it is also almost a one
command install.

However the question is can i install XAMPP over the existing L"AMP" stack
or do i need to uninstall the AMP portion first.

thanks

Ram
