Howdy,

Do you see any errors in /var/webmin/miniserv.error?

Also, are you by chance using OpenVZ?

Hmm, normally the PAM module isn't required, though it seems to be particularly upset about that not being available.

Did you by chance configure Webmin to use PAM authentication, rather than just using the default /etc/passwd authentication?

That could cause the problem you're seeing there... fixing it should just be a matter of installing the Authen::PAM module though.

What distro/version are you using?

Is your system configured to use Nginx as a webserver, rather than Apache?

It appears to be trying to load some Nginx code, but failing.

Yes.. Its Nginx ..

also have a file in /usr/libexec/webmin/nginx/virtual_feature.pl

do a re-install solves the problem ?

heey i fixed it.. removed "nginx" folder inside "/usr/libexec/webmin/" and installed the following

yum install wbm-virtualmin-nginx wbm-virtualmin-nginx-ssl

now i can see Virtualmin -> System Settings -> Features and Plugins

Thank you Eric for the clues :)
