Install failure on VPS with v2.3 on Ubuntu 15.10

QuickBox Support
,
#1

Thanks for all the hard work and fast updates. I’m eager to try this as a replacement for https://github.com/arakasi72/rtinst

I tried running from the home directory of my main account (as root) in /home/smbox:
(Also tried Ubuntu 16 with similar results. I’m using an Azure Virtual Machine with a plain Ubuntu install)

Also the script removed sudo root access to my main linux account! Lost root had to rebuild…

Run the following command to grab our latest stable release …

apt-get -yqq update; apt-get -yqq upgrade; apt-get -yqq install git lsb-release;
git clone https://github.com/QuickBox/quickbox_setup quickbox_setup
cd quickbox_setup
bash quickbox-setup

Install didn’t work and I didn’t see anything in /usr/local/bin/quickbox

Output:

When you say:

This is the cause of why your install is failing. The script needs to be installed from root (~/) as this is where it securely stashes the repos for upgrading, collaborating etc etc. There is going to be a function added in here within the next couple of days that will exit the script if it is not being installed from the root directory.

Additionally, the script does not remove sudo access, so I am not entirely sure on your meaning. If you could elaborate further on this I would appreciate it.

I started again with a clean ubuntu 16 and did a sudo bash; cd /root; and then ran install steps.

still had some error and nothing in /usr/local/bin/quickbox. But I realized the problem is that I was doing a sudo bash from my main user account. I realized I have to do a:

  1. sudo bash
  2. su root
  3. cd (should now take me to /root)
  4. then run the install commands

Everything worked fine after that, thanks!

PS I didn’t understand that master user for sudoer and used my existing account (had sudo root perms), but after the script lost that ability. I know know that should be a new user…

Ok, I see now. Thank you for that… I will rephrase that better, or at the very least add a note that it should be a new user. Glad you got this all sorted!

Judging by what processes failed within your output, it looks as if php failed to enter the dependencies.

Are you using Ubuntu 15.10 and which provider is your machine from? I have noticed this as a hit & miss event happening with Online.net for some reason.

Please let me know the output when you try the following (Just the error message, if any):

If you like, you can send me your server details via PM and I will login and take a look/patch the issue. I should be able to give you a solid reason as to why this happened and have you up and running within the hour.

Let me know if you’re game and we’ll get started. :slight_smile:

PS: no fees are going to be solicited in this case.
