PRO instal script failure - Ubuntu 6.06 LTS on VPS

I've been attempting to install virtualmin pro on a OpenVZ / Ubuntu 6.06 LTS VPS at vpslink.com

The attempt always fails with the errors in the virtualmin log file below.

Something about quotas. I looked at some of the forum posts at vpslink.com and it mentions the /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab files and to copy the contents of the mtab file to fstab but that didn't work. The posts were for a CentOS installation not Ubuntu.

This is the contents of /etc/mtab and /etc/fstab:

cat /etc/mtab /dev/simfs / reiserfs rw,usrquota,grpquota 0 0 proc /proc proc rw 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0 tmpfs /var/run tmpfs rw 0 0 tmpfs /var/lock tmpfs rw 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0 tmpfs /var/run tmpfs rw 0 0 tmpfs /var/lock tmpfs rw 0 0

cat /etc/fstab

UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM

I would like a clean install as possible.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks...

Actually, it looks like everything went through OK, even though there were some errors. The virtualmin-base configuration step occurred...

I'm betting Virtualmin is actually running fine (though quotas might still be unavailable). Try logging in on port 10000 and see if things look sane.

I logged into port 10000 and everything looks pretty messed up. No icons or images anywhere.

Any text link I click on in the left menu gives an "Unable to connect error" with no links anywhere in either frame.

So doesn't look like things went well.

When I run "top" I see a number of processes running such as dovecot, postgres and clamav.

To install all I do is install vps os then add the 3 Ubuntu repos as anymore caused an out of memory error. (512mb RAM on vps)

Then do an apt-get update and apt-upgrade then make sure hostname is reachable then apt-get install perl then run the install script.

I tried adding "/dev/simfs / reiserfs rw,usrquota,grpquota 0 0" to /etc/fstab but same error results. Also tried a symlink from /etc/fstab to /etc/mtab but same error also.

Let me know anything else you would need. I can post the whole log if you like, about 1013 lines.

Also Joe, there is a duplicate copy of post (same subject) that is also updating each time this post is. Not sure how that happened but I've been having connection problems with my local ISP.<br><br>Post edited by: Linux7, at: 2008/04/07 13:29
