Public bug reported: I tried to install XAMPP manually, it wouldn't work so I removed it.
I then installed php5-mysql, php5-gd, mysql-client and mysql-server from the synaptic package manager. When complete I got an error message saying the installation was incomplete or had failed. I have saved the daemon log file for you as I noticed you ask for it.
