To check that XAMPP is working some sample programs are included, there is a small CD collection program (written in PHP using MySQL) and a small guest book
software (written in Perl) and several other utilities.
If you decide that XAMPP isn't needed any more just delete the XAMPP directory and it's completely removed from your system.

On the press: Call for donations |
| |
On December 19, 2003, someone applied to the German Patent and Trademark Office for the rights to the "XAMPP" name. This person was not one of the XAMPP developers, but someone totally unknown to
them.
The trademark application is a danger for the project's future, since the applicant could - if no legal measures are taken - forbid that the XAMPP developers use that name for their software or do
business taking advantage of the name's popularity.
The XAMPP developers call on the project's website for donations to help counter this threat with legal means. Whether you are a new XAMPP user, a friend of Apache Friends, or just someone who
would like to help, please take the time and make a donation to the XAMPP project.
