Error when I install Cloudmin Pro on a system that already has Virtaulmin Pro installed

Cloudmin
1
SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version Ubuntu 22.04
Webmin version 2.202
Cloudmin version Latest

When I try to install my newly purchased Cloudmin on top of an existing Virtualmin Pro I get an error after running the “sudo sh cloudmin-pro-debian-install.sh” command

The install runs up until “Downloading GPG keys for packages …”
Then the error comes up:
cloudmin-pro-debian-install.sh: 106: cannot create /tmp/RPM-GPG-KEY-virtualmin: Permission denied
'… download failed

Could you kindly assist
Thank you

Cloudmin should be installed on a bare metal machine. It is intended for managing virtual machines that you can then install Virtualmin on.

The error you encountered is likely unrelated however, as I would guess the installer does not support Ubuntu 22.04.

Hi Paul, this is on a Dell Bare metal machine with 32 core Xeons and 256GB RAM.
The issue was a restriction on the /tmp folder.

OK great, glad you figured it out.
I’m still not sure why you are installing Cloudmin on top of Virtualmin though :slight_smile:

Yeah, it’s possible to run Cloudmin and Virtualmin on the same system, and the error had nothing to do with Virtualmin. But, you’re quite right that it makes little sense to run Virtualmin on the bare-metal…you’d generally be better off, from a security and management perspective, virtualizing the Virtualmin system(s) in a VM that Cloudmin manages. Performance can be practically identical between virtualized and bare metal systems these days, and there’s very little memory overhead, as well. KVM is crazy great at sharing things like kernel and process memory usage and such.
