I've been trying the whole day to install XAMPP onto my Steam Deck so that I can run Apache and other things from the XAMPP Control Panel. I've gone to the XAMPP website and downloaded XAMPP for Linux . The download gives me a .run file, but how do I run this .run file? When I open the file, then I get the following: Choose Application Portal on KDE What app do I need to choose to install XAMPP? I've chosen a couple of random ones, but it's not working. Launching it using the default Discover app, I get the following error: > Could not open file:///home/deck/Downloads/xampp-linux-x64-8.2.12-0-installer.run Any help would be appreciated 🙏🏻. Thanks. --- **EDIT:** As suggested by ZOOM in the comments. I need to try and run it through the Terminal using the following command: ` ./xampp-linux-x64-8.2.12-0-installer.run `, but that gives a permission error: > bash: ./xampp-linux-x64-8.2.12-0-installer.run: Permission denied And running . ./xampp-linux-x64-8.2.12-0-installer.run, gives the following error: > bash: .: ./xampp-linux-x64-8.2.12-0-installer.run: cannot execute binary file
