virtualmin script install failed

Hi

I tried to do the install with install.sh on a CentOS 6.9 final running inside of virtualbox.
From the errors I gathered here is what was displayed:

I tried with a new install and it caused the same problem. always 404.

Hi, I think its mentioned here: https://virtualmin.com/node/51861

thanks for sharing that link. Yes it looks like the script is not working because it cannot find some packages. I’m not sure how I can report that to them but I hope this will be resolved soon…

Ah, I see the problem with that. Working on it. Should be fixed in a few minutes.

But, also I strongly recommend you use the latest version of your preferred distro. CentOS/RHEL 6 is quite old at this point. It’s still got a couple of years before EOL, but it’s got really old versions of PHP, Apache, etc. and CentOS7 gets a lot more testing.

yes I should. I’ve migrated to miriaDB for development, just didn’t do anything on the production machine. Its running so well with virtualmin on 6.8 final. On virtualmin install I did upgrade the mysql and php to 5.5+ which is all the stuff I need and mail and virtualmin is running good. So if it ain’t broke I usually don’t fix it :wink:

I just ran the same install.sh I’ve pulled earlier. It seems to working great. Thanks for the reply guys. I really appreciate it.

CentOS 6 is EOL next month apart from maintenance.

Go C7 great till 2024 or whatever.

Actually it’s CentOS 5 that had a recent EOL (last month). CentOS 6 has a couple more years, until sometime in 2020. But, still it’s some old creaky software up in that distro. We’re all happier with newer stuff.

But, the problem with the CentOS 6 repos should be fixed now, for folks who absolutely need a CentOS 6 installation.
