I'm using XAMPP for windows to build my website projects, but I need to create a website in a UNIX/LINUX based server, but since I'm using XAMPP it is a Windows based server.
Somebody knows how can I do that in a windows machine, without having to install Linux in my machine?
Thanks in advance!
Install VirtualBox and run a VM of your favorite linux distribution. My suggestion would be Debian or Ubuntu.

I'm having trouble installing NodeJs and NPM on Ubuntu Server 20.04 on a Virtual Machine. The "unpacking" process takes forever and I don't remember it taking a long time when installing it on my physical computer (running on Ubuntu Desktop 20.04). I want to know if it is possible or why is it taking too long? Are the system requirements for my vm a problem?
Thank you in advance
To answer this it would be good to have more details. Which package are you trying to install? What are the specs of your vm?
Also I think this should belong in the Linux & Unix Stackexchange.
I have installed ISPconfig on my debian jessie server and it works well, but I want to use it as Virtual servers. I've choosed debian 8, beacuse I followed this tutorial:
https://github.com/servisys/ispconfig_setup
and as is it written in readme, this automated script will work with openvz only on Debian 8. But if I looked on linux packages, openvz is not installed. So my question is: can I install OpenVZ now? Even though I have ISPconfig installed? If yes exist any tutorial on internet for this? Thanks for your advice
No. If you want OpenVZ in this server with ISP, you must change kernel, which serve OpenVZ (2.6.x - 3.10).
I have a ubuntu machine in the same network with my windows laptop. I have a Pycharm Community Edition in my windows machine. I want to use the Pycharm in my windows machine to write Python Scripts which I want to run in Python interpreter present in Ubuntu machine. I am having difficulties installing Samba, as a linux newbie. I get the error that says samba.conf not present.Is there any other alternatives?
Don't bother with Samba. You can configure PyCharm to directly upload changed files to a remote server. I.e., when you save locally on your Windows workstation, it can automatically ftp/sftp the file to a pre-configured location on your remote server. See configuration instructions here:

I used this when I set up my LAMP machine a few years ago:

Sorry but I'm a newbie in Linux. I have a VPS hosting of CentOS 6. Can I access it like Remote Desktop on windows to see the GUI?
With a hosted Linux machine chances are that id doesn't even have "the GUI" (an X11 server and some GUI environment like KDE or Gnome) installed at all but only supports command line access via ssh.
If you really need GUI instead of command line access then the "classic" option would be VNC. There is a HowTo for this for CentOS at
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server
or at

I am planning to move my vmWare's Virtual Machines from a Windows host to a Linux host (Ubuntu). It is possible to run vmWare Server in a Linux host that does not have the graphical environment (does not have X)?
I just wonder how the graphical setup of Windows/Linux guest work in this case.
Thanks in advance for your time.

Just install it on Ubuntu Server and install it via apt-get. Here's a good walkthrough

I did this on my development server and connect to it using the graphical client on my Windows machine. I have no gui installed.
the X libraries are required during the compilation and installation of VMware Server on Linux.
virtualbox has some command line tools that you can use and I don't believe it requires an x installation. You should compare the features and make sure that's what you want though.
