Command not found while using sudo [UBUNTU 19.04]

When i try to run xampp server using the command:

lampp start

I get

Starting XAMPP for Linux 7.3.7-1...

You need to be root to perform this action.

Although when i use 

sudo lampp start

I get:

sudo: lampp: command not found

I tried with xampp command as well, still same result.

Solution

  • This will work 

     $ sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start

    Provided that your installation path is /opt/lampp which is the default path. If the installation path is unknown try which lampp and then start from there.
