can't install cpanel over fbsd 4.9

HEY NOBODY?

Where is support here?

 

Try this. Don't thing this will help but give it a shot.

cd /home;mkdir cpins;cd cpins;fetch http://layer1.cpanel.net/latest;sh latest

 

I am attempting to evaluate the product as well with the same exact configuration: FreeBSD 4.9 completely bare, and I attempted to fetch and install the latest cpanel, (via fetch http://layer1.cpanel.net/latest), when running latest I get all the normal mumbo jumbo, detects FreeBSD, then begins this:
./install: /scripts/setupmakeconf: not found

scripts/pkgmap.pl -> /scripts/pkgmap.pl

(etc..)

FATAL: rsync install failed.

And thats all she wrote. Any suggestions? I originally tried before, without perl 5.8.4, it was the bare install with just 5.x (5.0061 or something ancient).. no go. So what next?

 

however, to dmer: my recommendation to you is virus scan your server. This program should not be touching init.d, which makes me think you have a virus, (yes, even BSD servers get them) or worse, a trojan/hacker.

 

I had the same prob with freebsd 4.9.
I posted a support ticket and nick fixed it within one minute of my post.

 

I have found that this is the best way to install cpanel. It's easy! :D

 

Well, seems like the main problem I was having was, rsync was not installed. So if your having this problem, and it fails on rsync install failed, just run:

pkg_add -r rsync

and you shouldbe good to go. just rerun the install script and it should work.

 

so close..
it installed now, but when I attempt to open CPanel in a webbrowser I get this in my /var/log/messages:

Jul 19 14:40:34 cptest stunnel[231]: whmhttps connected from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1637
Jul 19 14:40:34 cptest stunnel[231]: SSL_accept: 1407609C: error:1407609C:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:http request

And the document that opens in the web browser contains no data.

 

nevermind, I'm retarded, I was not opening the page with https://xxx.xx.xx.xx:2087
