Everything else works fine, but mysql will not start with the Apache
It is not clear what you mean by "mysql will not start with the Apache startup." Apache and MySQL are separate servers. Starting Apache has nothing to do with starting MySQL. Xampp has a script which does both, however. Is that what you did?
startup. When I try to do a manual startup of my sql I get the following error message
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/opt/lampp/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
That is the error message you get from the client (mysql) when the server (mysqld) isn't running. You can't run the client until after you've started the server.
Any suggestions ?

We'll need more information to help you. What is your OS? How did you try to start mysql? Copy the text of your command and the output which followed from your terminal to your email. That way, we can see what you did and the error message (or lack thereof).
