Open XAMPP Control Panel, hit on the "Help" button and then "View ReadMe" ... It'll open a Notepad file having the first line as:
"###### ApacheFriends XAMPP Version x.y.x ######"
where x.y.z is the XAMPP version!

Go to uninstall software if you are on windows and there you will see the version of your xammp.
Run in command line
<xampp_dir>\apache\bin\httpd -v
It prints Apache version.
For example I had installed XAMPP to C:\Aplikace\xampp directory and type into Command Line
C:\Aplikace\xampp\apache\bin\httpd -v
that responsed
- Go to xampp folder where you installed xampp
- Find apache?
- xampp->apache->bin->httpd->right click->properties->details->version find php version in xampp
- xampp control panel which, after the complete installation, contains start, stop, config, etc.
- There you find shell-> click->type php-v
- mariaDB version in xampp?
- Type localhost/phpmyadmin after installation on url
- Find sql
- Type select version(); and hit enter

In my case I have installed XAMPP for Linux (LAMPP) in Ubuntu 18.10
How can you know it?
- Try to go to /opt/lampp
- If you can, it means Xampp for Linux it's installed, but if you want to know the version, in the same path of step 1, put in your command line ./xampp status You will know XAMPP for Linux version and Apache, MySQL and ProFTPD status (running or not).
Know PHP version
cd /opt/lampp/bin
./php -v
Know MySQL (MariaDB) version
cd /opt/lampp/bin
./mysql --version
Know Apache version
cd /opt/lampp/bin
./apachectl -v
I hope helps somebody
./xampp status image
You have to understand this :
1) LAMP
For LAMP setup, you have to install PHP, Apache and Mysql packages separately. In LAMP you don't get anything to manage your server in GUI way.
For Ex: To start apache server you have to type command in terminal.
To start apache : sudo service apache2 start
For installing LAMP refer :
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu
2) XAMPP
It is a complete package which comes bundled with PHP,Apache, Mysql etc in a single installation. It gives you a control panel from which you can manage your server and configuration files.It is something of this sort.
For XAMPP : https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html
If you don't find xampp control panel in your system, this means you have a LAMP setup. i.e : first option.
Put this in your root directory:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Save it as phpinfo.php and point your browser to it (this could be http://localhost/phpinfo.php)
- More information (you can get much more information than just the version).
- Example (random image):
Try with command from terminal
sudo /opt/lampp/bin/php -v
Here's what I found:
You should be able to find this in the log called 'catalina.out'. Alternatively, you can go right to the source; open $TOMCAT_HOME/server/lib/catalina.jar in a tool capable of handling zip or jar files, and read the file called org/apache/catalina/util/ServerInfo.properties.
That last bit is not guaranteed to work across multiple versions, though.
Personal opinion -- the catalina solution should be perfectly fine.
P.S. your (XAMPP) Tomcat home folder usually lies in $XAMPP/tomcat/
You can simply just start the tomcat in xampp and press admin button or navigate to localhost:8080 in browser and the tomcat homepage will show up with version details and documentation.
If you are using new version of xampp.
Try http://localhost/dashboard/phpinfo.php
Put this code in your root directory or htdocs folder of xampp:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>- Save it as phpinfo.php and point your browser to it (this could be http://localhost/phpinfo.php)
- Example: random image (Click Here)
The version will be published in the log specified under ErrorLog within your configuration. (/var/log/httpd/error_log is a standard location in many Linuxes.)
Additionally, you should be able to execute the httpd binary equivalent in windows with -v.
Example from Linux:
# /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -v
Server version: Apache/1.3.41 (Unix)
Server built: Sep 10 2009 10:42:36
From CMD:
"C:\Program Files\[Apache directories]\bin\httpd.exe" -v
Example:
C:\Documents and Settings\User>"c:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\bin\httpd.exe" -v
Server version: Apache/2.2.21 (Win32)
Server built: Sep 9 2011 10:26:10
