Arch Linux User Repository

@jpegxguy You are right, good catch. Fixed.

Thanks for this package! I think the service file provided by this package, should reside in /usr/lib/systemd/system instead of under /etc.

I have updated the package and done a global review.

@oguzkagan the mariadb-install-db did not work for me either but I used chmod 777 on the entire /opt/lampp/lampp which somehow fixed the mysql issue. I posted about it to the forums here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=258288

A UID mismatch was suggested as a possible issue among others, as well as possible soultions. There's a ton of info in that forum thread.

Failed to start mysql, running sudo mariadb-install-db --user=mysql --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql Fixed it.

The line before /opt/lampp/bin/mysql.server fails (line 310) runs $bindir/mysqld_safe --datadir="$datadir" --pid-file="$mysqld_pid_file_path" "$@" &. Oddly, if I just run this line, it runs smoothly (exit code 0) but afterwards I can't find a runny mysql server and the pid file also doesn't exist.

@oguzkagan I get the same error as the others (/opt/lampp/bin/mysql.server: line 264: kill: (2961) - No such process), but the mariadb-install-db ... command does not fix it.

mysql server fails to start via xampp > Manage Servers using this build. Solved by installing straight from the xampp website. Haven't tested the added xampp.install script or the command shown by the maintainer in the comment bellow.

~~Build fails because targets tclkit and sdx can't be found. Are these more dependencies not listed in the PKGBUILD?~~

Never mind, it was an issue on my end.

@Major_25 Sorry for my late answer... You can solve the issue to run one times the command: mariadb-install-db --user=mysql --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql . I added it to the xampp.install script but I am not sure it works.
