How to copy my existing projects and paste my htdocs ?

Solution

for creating the folder inside / you need root permisions

for creating the folder inside opt/lamp/ht docs/

open the terminal using ctrl+alt+t and change the directory to it by typing

cd /opt/lamp/ht\ docs/

and make directory using the command

sudo mkdir <dir name>

and to copy the files to docs first change the directory where your files are located using the following command

cd <directory containing the docs>

and type the following commands

sudo cp <docs> /opt/lamp/ht\ docs/
