Install log attached - I can't see any errors but it seems to fail after checking the PHP dependencies. The server has php 5.6 installed and I don't really want 5.3 installed if that is the issue?
This is an install for a client. I am pretty familiar with Ubuntu but not Centos so not sure how to resolve this.
cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 6.4 (Final)
Howdy -- it looks like you marked this request as private, which means I'm the only person who can see it :-)
I'm happy to help, but is there any chance you could uncheck the "Private" option?
Which PHP version is it that you're hoping for?
Also, what is the output of this command:
rpm -qa | grep php
Hi, sorry, have unchecked that option now. I need PHP 5.6.
Howdy,
Ah, that may be the source of the problem. It looks like you have a third party repository enabled there, and that may be causing a conflict that's preventing the Virtualmin installer from running.
The installer is expecting a brand new, fresh CentOS installation, and packages coming from other repositories can cause it to fail.
Even after Virtualmin is installed, packages from third party repositories can cause various problems, so we'd advise caution using those.
A supported way of using a more recent PHP version on CentOS 6 would be to use the CentOS SCL repository. Directions for using that are available here:
https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/web/multiplephp
Note that for it to work, you'd need to be using the 64 bit architecture.
It's not using PHP 5.6, though it's still much newer than the PHP 5.3.3 that comes with CentOS 6.
