Problem to install virtualmin

Hmm... I'm not actually seeing any errors in that output.

Could you attach your /root/virtualmin-install.log file? That would contain a bit more info that should help us figure out what's going on.

Thanks!

Today I checked lot of options (installing LAMP, ISP Config etc.) and I think my server is not "clean" . What is the simpliest way to back to orginal settings my server ?

What is the simpliest way to back to orginal settings my server ?

Yeah, it looks like you're seeing some package conflicts based on some new packages that are installed. It's also possible some other things are awry...

So what's the simplest way to get back to the original server settings? That would be to format and reinstall the OS :-)

There's no way to "undo" all the changes made (unless there was a backup, but it'd be a lot easier to just reinstall than it would be to restore a backup).

The install.sh can best get things setup for you when run in a clean install of your OS. That would be your best option. As an alternative -- you could always try manually removing the qmail and vpopmail packages. I'm not sure that'll solve all the problems, but you could always give it a try if you're reluctant to reinstall :-)

Manually removing qmail and vpopmail did not hep :( Still are conflicts with vpopmail :/ Then how reinstall CentOS 5.X on my vps ?

As you can guess I begin the adventure with linux and vps/dedicated server stuff...

My virtual disc looks so :

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2             7.2G  3.0G  3.9G  43% /
/dev/sda3             7.2G  3.0G  3.9G  43% /tmp
/dev/sda1              99M   23M   72M  24% /boot
tmpfs                 125M     0  125M   0% /dev/shm

That's odd that there would be a conflict with vpopmail if it's removed... there may have been a problem with removing it, it's possible that didn't work correctly.

However, with a VPS -- how did you get CentOS installed in the first place? Typically, that's something your provider helps with. Some of them provide a control panel that you can use to reinstall your OS.

But it would be either your provider, or a tool provided by your provider (such as a control panel), that you'd use in order to reinstall CentOS.
