Launching XAMPP at OSX startup A few days ago I posted about my experiences setting up XAMPP on OSX. Here’s another little XAMPP tip By default XAMPP won’t start the Apache and MySQL services at system startup, so every time you reboot your computer you’ll need to restart them. Wouldn’t it be nice if those services started automatically? One way of doing that is to create a Launch Daemon that runs at system startup and have it start XAMPP for us. “Apache is not running from XAMPP Control Panel If you have installed Skype” The most common problem that you are running another program which is blocking port 80 or 443. If you have installed Skype, then you have found this problem. Fire up Terminal, and run the following command: cd /Library/LaunchDaemons sudo nano apachefriends.xampp.apache.start.plist Enter your OSX password when prompted, then in paste the following into your new plist: When you restart your computer the XAMPP Apache and MySQL services should start automatically. You can check this by launching XAMPP Control and checking that Apache and MySQL have green lights displayed next to them.

However, I’m fairly certain that unless you intentionally open up port 80 in your hardware/software firewall your XAMPP server should be invisible outside your local network.
