I tried to install virtualmin after installing a PERL 5.30.0 via Perlbrew.
This is installed in path /root/perl/* and bash variable set current as system shows my current Perl as 5.30.0
But i get the following errror. - Can't locate Virtualmin/Config.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Virtualmin::Config module) (@INC contains: /root/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.30.0/

So in a sense, It finds my correct perl path and tries to install but fails somehow in the post installation.
What is also baffling is even with failed post install completion i login into the system and navigate to Webmin->others->Perl Modules . I see Perl version 5.16.3 (this is the version shipped with the OS) not the new version in my $env path. Image is attached.
I am stuck now and need help.
How have you guys used virtualmin with custom perl version? Am i missing something?

Howdy -- we're sorry you weren't able to get Virtualmin to install using a custom Perl version, though that's unfortunately not really something we'd be able to provide support for.
The installer is designed to work on a freshly installed version of the OS, meaning a predictable environment. We've never tested it with a custom Perl version.
That's not to say it can't be coaxed to work, it probably can be. But since that's not a bug, what we're encourage you to do is use the Forums to troubleshoot that and get some ideas.
We monitor the Forums, along with lots of wonderful folks in the community. Thanks!
