Answers
A 404 error is basically an HTTP status code which means that the page you are requesting is not available on their server. This kind of error can be shown while installing XAMPP on Linux OS. XAMPP is a popular PHP development environment and it is a free and easy to install Apache distribution.
404–page not found error can occur for many reasons and they can be resolved by the following ways.
1. Refresh the page: Sometimes the page does not show but it actually exists in the server. If you get this kind of error, first of all you refresh the page. Sometimes simply refreshing can resolve this error.
2. Check the address: If refreshing does not work, check if the URL you have entered is correct or not. By fixing the URL, 404-error can be resolved.
3. Go back to previous page if page is not found. If you are not able to find the page, then try to search for the information you are trying to reach.
4. Always try to search from a popular search engine to avoid this kind of error.
5. This error can occur if your cache is not clear. Clear the cache to resolve the 404-page not found error.
