I cant seem to install cpanel on my VPS.

It shows this error after executing sh latest

And then no apache or mysql is installed

I am using CentOS 5.3 32 bit, 1 Gig Xen VPS

I dont have any idea what to do next


Thanks


Edit:

Tried /scripts/easyapache to check if apache will install and it did not

Also trying to run any executable from cpanel shows this

[root@host /]#/usr/local/cpanel/cpanel -S
-bash: /usr/local/cpanel/cpanel: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

I have taken this off a forum posting by someone else on some other website. This is not my own content but is for the same issue (Dated January)

If you have ipables active & blocked all port except specific port like mine (only port 22 excluded), then you need to turn off the firewall:
Code:
service iptables save
service iptables stop
chkconfig iptables off
This solution solved my problem, run this on the node:
# modprobe loop

# nano /etc/fstab

add this line at the end:
none /tmp tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0

reboot VPS and then run:
# /scripts/securetmp

If it runs properly then you can try to reinstall cpanel, it is almost possible that cpanel installation will be installed properly
Additional step needed (command) needed to be run on the node to set the firewall, it is really optional if the steps above didn't work:
Code:
# vzctl stop xxx

# vzctl set xxx --iptables ipt_REJECT --iptables ipt_tos --iptables ipt_TOS --iptables ipt_LOG --iptables ip_conntrack --iptables ipt_limit --iptables ipt_multiport --iptables iptable_filter --iptables iptable_mangle --iptables ipt_TCPMSS --iptables ipt_tcpmss --iptables ipt_ttl --iptables ipt_length --iptables ipt_state --iptables iptable_nat --iptables ip_nat_ftp --save

# vzctl set xxx --numiptent 2500 --save

# vzctl set xxx --devnodes loop0:rw --save

# vzctl start xxx
replace xxx with your container ID

remember, all the steps above only works with openvz. Good luck!

RDOSTI, he has indicated that this is a Xen VPS.

Out of curiosity, jamjam, are you working with a regular cPanel license or a VPS license?

Check the verbose log file at /usr/local/cpanel/logs/easy/apache/build.127077508 and check what is the error message that you are getting During apache installation.

Also try executing "modprobe loop" via ssh as root

I am working on a vps license.


Anyway I just reinstalled a new os (64 bit) and it is now working. I guess the OS template my VPS provider has a problem on their 32 bit image.
