Basic install

[Hrishikesh]

Hi I know this is a very noob question but since I'm new to Plesk I'm hoping someone can guide me on how to install Plesk and then migrate my domains and everything from zPanel to Plesk.

I have a Centos 6 VPS. I'm following the command line installation instructions from here - http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...e/plesk-installation-upgrade-migration-guide/.

Here is the error I'm getting. Can someone please help me fix this? Thanks.

Hi Hrishikesh,

as you can see in your log, "postfix-perl-scripts" REQUIRES "postfix", but it is not installed on your system. Please install it, before you continue.

 

[Hrishikesh]

I should've been a bit clearer. It is installed on my system but I still cant get Plesk to install.

[root@vultr ~]# yum list installed | grep postf

Hi Hrishikesh,

to investigate dependencies issues, it could take some time if your log doesn't directly point to any issues. In your case it could be, that you first have to upgrade your postfix version, or it could be, that you first have to upgrade another package on your system, which depend on postfix.

You could try to check dependencies with several commands on CentOS:

repoquery --whatrequires postfix

repoquery --requires postfix --resolve

repoquery --requires postfix​

It could be as well a good idea to first update/upgrade all installed packages on your system, before you continue to install Plesk, just to make sure that you are up-to-date.

I'm getting very similar messages at the same spot in the install ...

No package matched to remove: php54-common
No package matched to remove: php-common

The three repoquery commands suggested above returned nothing for me.

Hrishikesh - Did you ever solve the issue?

Thanks!

 

[Hrishikesh]

Delford, I couldn't resolve this and eventually took a backup and restarted from scratch (which is what the Plesk folks also recommend). I think the installation does not work with the PHP from the webtatic repo. Even though the installation guide says that you require PHP before attempting installation, I just ran the installation and the installer installed all the pre-requisite components.

I just went to do a fresh install on a server today for one of my customers and I had this problem. It seemed to work after I removed
postfix-perl-scripts, so:

# yum erase postfix-perl-scripts
