Howdy, :)
So, I've been trying to install virtualmin all day, but I'm still a noob (that's probably not going to change for awhile)
This is a part of my log:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
apache2 : Depends: apache2-mpm-worker (= 2.2.16-6) but it is not going to be installed or
apache2-mpm-prefork (= 2.2.16-6) but 2.2.16-6+squeeze1 is to be installed or
apache2-mpm-event (= 2.2.16-6) but it is not going to be installed or
apache2-mpm-itk (= 2.2.16-6) but it is not going to be installed

Any help would be appreciated, even suggestions :)
Information you might need to know?: Running Debian 6.0 64-bit Installed a fresh copy then tried, still same problem 512mb Ram.. 501mb free anything else?
Thanks in advance, Scott
Howdy,
Hmm, it looks like Apache is hung up on which of those dependencies to use, but for some reason isn't installing them.
Try running this command on your server as root:
apt-get install apache2 apache2-mpm-preforkAfter that, then try performing your Virtualmin installation again.

Hi
I have the same issue (Debian 6 x86) and when run:
apt-get install apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork
have the same error message:
root@server11:~# apt-get install apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done apache2-mpm-prefork is already the newest version. Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:

This is my output more redable:

Hmm, it doesn't seem like the "apache2" package is installed.
What output do you get when typing this:
apt-get install apache2I have similar output:
http://pastebin.com/tM1LTCnk
It's a fresh officia Debian 6 openvz template.
roberto
Something odd is going on, I'm not sure why it's not attempting to pull those files in automatically.
Let's try one more tweak to that command line before we start looking elsewhere... what if you run this command:
apt-get install apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork apache2.2-commonHi !
The error continues:
http://pastebin.com/4X0p3maH
I'm using this template:
http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/debian-6.0-x86.tar.gz
if someone want to test.
roberto
Well, for whatever reason, your system seems to be objecting to installing the 'apache2' package.
If you're dealing with a fresh installation -- you might try removing apache2-mpm-prefork and apache2.2-common:
apt-get remove apache2-mpm-prefork apache2.2-commonThen installing it all again:
apt-get install apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork apache2.2-commonDone ! but does not solve the issue.

Thank for your help.

I've never seen any such problems on a fresh Ubuntu install. Are you using an "official" version of Debian, and the official/correct repositories? Did you install anything before executing the Virtualmin installer? Is your server by chance an OpenVZ container or something comparable?
Hi
I'm using the openvz official template from http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/debian-6.0-x86.tar.gz
No
yes, It's a openvz container. I'm also the node manager. The node and vps are mine.
I have installed virtualmin many times in debian 5 and centos 5 and I manage several virtualmin servers, is not my first attempt.
If the installation does not work I can install it on ubuntu, but I would like to help fix this bug in debian, if it exists.
regards
roberto
There have been many reports about problems on OpenVZ in the past, so it is a safe assumption that it might be involved here somehow too. Often memory restrictions / usage of "burst memory" (where applications can get killed without warning) have been the cause.
My suggestion would be checking the corresponding OpenVZ parameters, or trying out your Debian 6 installation process on a more reliable virtualization platform, like VMWare, for comparison and fault localization (to see if it an issue related to OpenVZ, Debian 6, or the combination).
thanks for your help, I need the server online today, I going to install ubuntu and see what happen. Also I'll check the openvz setup
roberto
Virtualmin installs perfectly on Ubuntu 10.04, done that many times. On VMWare though, but I suppose if you increase the "guaranteed memory" a bit, it should work on OpenVZ too.
Try adding "apache2.2-bin" to the list of packages you're installing... the command line would look like this:
apt-get install apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork apache2.2-common apache2.2-binActually, I didn't read the error message very well... I don't think the above will work :-)
If you do end up trying to get that Debian image to work, I'd love to see what your /etc/apt/sources.list looks like.
And perhaps run this command again:
dpkg -l 'apache*'I have just installed successfully ubuntu 10.4 in a vps with the same configuration than debian.
Seems is not a openvz issue.
With debian again:
This is the "dpkg -l 'apache*'" command before run the installer script (with a clean server)
http://pastebin.com/HPyJpjAs
When I run the installer I have the same issue again.
My source.list file after run the failed installer script:
root@server11:~# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian squeeze main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian-security squeeze/updates main contrib non-free
Excuse my english.
