title: XAMPP manager can't start server on OS X but it work on terminal
body: <p>First my english might be bad so if you understand what I mean but the sentence is not correct feel free to edit my post, and if you don't understand I'll try my best to explain better.</p>
  
  <p>I installed XAMMP on my MyBook Air version 10.11.5. I can launch the application but in "Manage servers" when I press the "Start all" button all the status switched from "Stopped" to "Starting" and then return to "Stopped" after about 20 seconds. Here is the application log :</p>
  
  <pre><code>Starting MySQL Database...
  
  Starting Apache Web Server...
  /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apache2/scripts/ctl.sh : httpd started
  Starting ProFTPD...
  Checking syntax of configuration file
  /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/proftpd/scripts/ctl.sh : proftpd started
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Two things here : the MySQL database doesn't send anything in return and it seem that for the log the servers are running. So maybe it was only a display problem on the "Manage servers" tab so I tried to go to the adress <code>http://localhost</code> but nothing.</p>
  
  <p>After a lot of research and try the only topic who gives me what I want is this one : <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21267064/mysql-database-wont-start-in-xampp-manager-osx/">MySQL Database won&#39;t start in XAMPP Manager-osx</a> 
  The command <code>sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql.server start</code>works perfectly. So now I can start the MySQL server only. The I noticed something, here is the terminal log :</p>
  
  <pre><code>MacBook-Air:~ user$ sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql.server start

  Password:
  Starting MySQL
  . SUCCESS! 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>You can see I had to enter my session password. So my questions are simple :</p>
  
  <p>Could the password be the problem for the XAMPP Manager ?
  i.e. the manager try to launch the servers but encounter the password request and then failed to launch the servers.</p>
  
  <p>If it's the case how can I give to XAMPP the access so the manager can launch on is own the servers without needed to use the terminal ?</p>
  
  <p>Is there any command like the one below to launch also the PHP server if I can't fix the Manager problem ?</p>
  
  <p>I promise I did research on this topic but I find nothing about this specific password (I was often redirected on starting session password...).</p>
  
  <p>Thank you for reading and maybe for answering !</p>
