回答1:

To change ownership of htdocs folder run following command. [Replace username with your own username]

sudo chown -R username:username /opt/lampp/htdocs

We also need to update httpd.conf file. Run following command to open apache configuration file: sudo gedit /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf

Find following lines:

 User nobody
 Group nogroup
