I am new in Ubuntu. Recently I am using Ubuntu 12.10. When I used window xp I used WordPress in XAMPP. The installation press of WordPress in windows xp on XAMPP is very simple, only copy the downloaded WordPress file on 'htdocs' folder and change some come on 'wpconfig.php', then ready to use. Now in Ubuntu 12.10, I using LAMPP, do the same process as windows xp but don't works.

Any suggestion ...

That is not related to WordPress at all. Setting up a dev environment with a server and, MySQL and might belong to Askubuntu or Server Fault. But don't works is not specific enough to make this question ready for migration. – toscho♦ Nov 9 '12 at 23:25

Please check your phpmyadmin and apache server is work , than if you write your connection details correctly should work.

Also you can use this article for installing LAMP server on Ubuntu 12.10

Install is so easy on 12.10 ;)

Than copy your installation package files, root folder. Than go http://localhost on your web browser. If you install your LAMP server correctly, Should see wordpress installation steps.
