Here is the story.
Fresh install of Centos 6.2 on ESXi 4.1
ran yum update
installed vmware tools
ran the install.sh for virtual min and got this error:

I can post the the entire log if it helps, but these are the only errors i could find.
Howdy,
It looks like it's having a problem installing the Virtualmin dependencies. What we can try is to manually install those to see what error comes up.
What errors do you receive if you run this command:
yum install bind bind-utils caching-nameserver httpd postfix spamassassin procmail perl-DBD-Pg perl-DBD-MySQL qu ota iptables openssl python mailman subversion mysql mysql-server mysql-devel postgresql postgresql-server rh-postgresql rh-postgresql-server logrotate webalizer php php-xml php-gd php-imap php-mys ql php-odbc php-pear php-pgsql php-snmp php-xmlrpc php-mbstring mod_perl mod_python cyrus-sasl dovecot spamassassin mod_dav_svn cyrus-sasl-gssapi mod_ssl ruby ruby-devel rubygems perl-XML-Simple perl-Crypt-SSLeayThis might be obvious, and I realize it's an old post, but I was banging my head against this, and finally figured out that SELinux was causing the install to fail, and the
INFO - Disabling SELinux during installation...wasn't actually disabling SELinux. I tried this:
echo 0 > /selinux/enforceand it didn't temporarily turn it off. Once I manually turned of off by changing the /etc/selinux/config and rebooting virtualminGPL installed without issue.
From what I have seen. You shouldnt update the server and let the install script do the updating.
