Ubuntu Plesk Install CLI Fails with - ERROR: You should have superuser privileges to install Plesk

Matt Downer

New Pleskian
When I try to run "sudo wget -O - http://autoinstall.plesk.com/one-click-installer | sh" it always stops with error "ERROR: You should have superuser privileges to install Plesk"

Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.19.0-25-generic x86_64)

This is a fresh install with the command sudo apt-get updates upgrade run and wget installed. Followed this install guide http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...-migration-guide/index.htm?fileName=65780.htm


gtiadmin@WEB01:~$ sudo wget -O - http://autoinstall.plesk.com/one-click-installer | sh
