Can't find XAMPP's httpd-xampp.conf file on MacOs Mojave – Apache

I’m experiencing the problem discussed in this thread: New xampp security concept: Access Forbidden Error 403 – Windows 7 – phpMyAdmin

To solve it I apparently need to make some changes to the httpd-xampp.conf file. I however don’t know how to locate it.

    Is not that located at: etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf ?

    If not, then just create it, and in the main .conf file (httpd.conf) file, insert such line:

    Include etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf

    use find command to know the location of httpd-xampp.conf. enter the following command:

    $ sudo find / -iname "httpd-xampp.conf"

    It is located in the virtual machine running xampp, not the physical hard drive. That being said, I cannot find mine either and am simply using http://localhost:8080 to access phpMyAdmin until I find httpd-xampp.conf.

    Are you guys sure you mounted /lampp?

    XAMPP Volumes

    If not, please do so.

    Then open file at

    lampp/etc/extra/httpd-xampp.conf

    and edit it at line 20 and add a new one at 42 like this:

    # since XAMPP 1.4.3
<Directory "/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin">
AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit
Require all granted
ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var

    and

    # <Location /time>
SetHandler modperl
PerlResponseHandler Apache::CurrentTime
Require all granted

    Start XAMPP again (mounting of lampp not necessary anymore) and you are good to go.
