VM 6.1.1 install on Centos 8.1 - Error

Hi,

I had 2 errors during a number of install attempts

1. virtualmin package epel-release-8-8.el8.noarch (which is newer than epel-release-8-7.el8.noarch) is already installed - I removed epel-release-8-8.el8.noarch

2. nothing provides perl-Geo-IP needed by awstats-7.7-5.el8.noarch - there is no perl-Geo-IP package - found this perl-Net-IP-1.26-20.el8.noarch

If you guys are fixing these errors, then you can mark this as closed

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback.

We are aware of these issues and working on fixing them. The second issue is actually CentOS 8 bug itself, as I understand.

Thanks for the update.

Is there a page where you do regular updates on bug fixes etc? Because I don't want to keep trying to install it on Centos 8.1, until you guys have fixed things.

Yes, there is. However, the error that you're seeing is coming from CentOS 8 itself and there is no much we can do for now. You can easily work-around this problem.

The following page for CentOS 8 updates:

https://forum.virtualmin.com/t/virtualmin-install-sh-support-for-centos-...

I waited some time for you guys to fix the issues you have been having. Today i tried to install it again and i got this error

Can't locate open.pm in @INC (you may need to install the open module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Term/Spinner/Color.pm line 10.

I got this error now

Error

▣▣▣ Cleaning up

[WARNING] The following errors occurred during installation:

◉ Postinstall configuration returned an error.

Since it stopped at 20, how can i get the broken install to work correctly? It stopped at 20 do i need to run the install again to get it to 23?

Hi,

You can simply re-run the installer.

Speaking about "perl-Open" error. Do you have all latest updates installed before running Virtualmin install script?
