Plesk Installation Problem

[amandler]

I have an Intel server with a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 LT. I turned off apparmor, downloaded the Plesk 9.2.2 autoinstaller (parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386), chmod on it, and (logged in as root) tried to execute it. It executes and returns: "no such file or directory". Since its a binary file, I have no way to troubleshoot it further. I can find no reference to this problem in this forum.

I want to do a fresh install of 9.2.2 to migrate my aging 8.04 server to.

Thanks.

Hello,

Please login to your server shell as root and perform the following commands:

wget http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...ler_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386

chmod +x parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386

./chmod +x parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386

And provide us with the result of these commands.

Plesk Installation Problem on Ubuntu 8.04

I executed the commands exactly as instructed. Here is the file, with executable permissions:

root@host0:~# ls -la
total 4736
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2009-09-07 10:28 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2009-08-11 16:18 ..
-rw------- 1 root root 1781 2009-09-03 13:45 .bash_history
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2227 2007-10-20 07:51 .bashrc
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4810280 2009-07-28 05:37 parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386

Here is the output from executing the file:

root@host0:~# ./parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386
-bash: ./parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386: No such file or directory

Plesk Installation Problem on Ubuntu 8.04

I downloaded the Debian 4.0 installer and it does the same thing: No such file or directory.

Note that this problem was never resolved.

You typed the following:

./parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubunt u_8.04_i386

When you should have typed the following:

./parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386

The reason your install failed was due to a simple typo error.

You typed "_Ubunt u_" when you should have typed "_Ubuntu_" You ended up typing a space where it didn't belong.

At first glance what you typed seems to be perfectly alright, but I have had years and years of proofreading experience and your typo jumped right out to me.

As Plesk always seems to choose really, really long names for their files, I invariably end up making a typo. So I started using the copy and past commands in the terminal window. Problem solved at least for me...

Thanks for your thoughtful read of the problem, Christopher, but unfortunately that is not the case. I did not typo the command line. Rather, the cut and paste from my terminal to the bbs left out that underline. I typed the command by using the right cursor key in the bash shell, thereby entering it exactly. Just in case, I renamed the file to simply "plesk" and executed it again. Same problem. The mystery persists. Good eye, though!

No such file

I am logged in as the user I setup during the ubuntu basic server install

the wget http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk..... works ok although the download seems to 200K !!!!

However next command
chmod +x parallels_installer_v3.4.1_build090204.18_os_Ubuntu_8.04_i386

I get
chmod cannot access parallels............
no such file or directory

Tried login as root but no root account exists

Would appreciate the help.
Thanks
