I recently upgraded from Virtualmin GPL to Pro (version 3.96 with Webmin 1.600 on CentOS 6.3 x64) and am now running into a major problem when trying to use the Pro-only "install scripts" feature.
I am attempting to install WordPress 3.4.2 on a brand-new virtual server I just created but am running into an issue. Every time I attempt to run the installation, it gets stuck at the "Applying Web server configuration" part with the following Apache error:
AH00526: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/clients/domain.com.lock: Invalid command "20102", perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration.
"domain.com" is the name of the virtual host file that stores the data for the virtual server domain.com, and /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/clients/ is the directory in which Apache stores its virtual host files, one file per Virtualmin virtual server. I've never seen these ".lock" files, and when I go into /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/clients to check for the aforementioned file it's gone (perhaps it's a temporary file).
This also happens when I try to install Bugzilla, and seems to throw the same error no matter what script I try to install.
How can I fix this problem? I've never seen this before and it's really baffling me.
Thanks for any assistance provided.

Howdy -- it sounds like it's seeing some lock files in your Apache config directory.
What output do you receive if you run this command:
find /etc/httpd/ -name "*.lock"Submitted by airshock on Tue, 12/11/2012 - 08:10 Comment #2
Hi Eric,
I was actually able to fix the issue last last night as I was waiting for a response from Virtualmin Support. It turns out I had file locking turned on in Webmin, so I went to the Webmin Configuration screen, then to the File Locking page, and turned it off. Now I am able to install scripts without any issues. If it would be better for me to keep file locking turned on but still find a workaround to this problem let me know.
Thanks!
