Ubuntu export /opt/lampp/lampp into PATH

I'm trying to put lampp into my Ubuntu Path but I'm seemingly doing something wrong because it doesn't work.

I put this into the ~/.bashrc file :

export PATH="/opt/lampp/lampp:$PATH"

and then I ran the following command in ~ : $ source .bashrc

Thanks for your help

EDIT

Here is the content of the file .bashrc :

Okay, so I think I know what's going on! Change your $PATH line in ~/.bashrc to the following:\n\nexport PATH=\"/opt/lampp:$PATH\"\n\n\nThen try source ~/.bashrc, or open a new terminal. You should now have the lampp and xampp commands available. Both should do the same thing.\n\nThe problem is that the $PATH variable points to directories that contain executable files, rather than pointing to executable files directly. It appears that /opt/lampp/lampp is a symbolic link that points to /opt/lampp/xampp, which is an executable.\n\n\n\nUPDATE: When you use sudo, it's likely not honoring your $PATH variable for security reasons. You might try running sudo visudo, and editing the line that says Defaults secure_path=\"...\" to include /opt/lampp. Then sudo lampp start should work!",
