Error while installing Cpanel

Hello,

I am getting the following error message while I install Cpanel on my VPS.

Error Message :

Installer Version 11.4.1



Your operating system's rpm update method (yum) was not able to locate the glibc package. This is an indication of an improper setup. You must correct this error before you can proceed.

Please help me installing Cpanel.

Thank You,

glibc package is missing. Install it using yum and start the cPanel installation. To install glibc, execute:

yum install glibc

If you receive any further errors, paste them here.

How does one install yum itself on a cpanel vps?

Most glibc issues aren't that it isn't installed, but that yum isn't working properly, if yum errors out, you will receive the errors referring to glibc.

Run 'yum info glibc' and see if yum errors out, most of the time this happens when resolver or yum config is corrupt.


Below is a script to install yum on a 64bit box, this may help you get yum installed, however, be sure to use the rpms for your specific architecture, as the rpms in this scripts are for 64bit.
