Webmin + install modules + updates

NXS — Mon, 03 Oct 2005 03:44:33 GMT

I installed webmin from the hp software (depot files). But I would like to update the software. That works until he sorts this : Failed to install module : File is gzipped, but the gunzip command was not found on your system.
Gunzip is installed on the system and into /etc/PATH. Is there something else to change?

To update a depot installation, you need a newer depot file.

Can't update a depot/sd-ux installtion with a tar.gz

If you have a depot.gz

whence gzip

gunzip

swinstall -s /full_path/filename.depot \*

Note that some depot installations need the previous verion uninstalled prior to installing the new version. I don't know if this is the case with webmin.

gzip will be located here:

/usr/contrib/bin/gzip

Try to do as,

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/contrib/bin

and try now.

If you don't have that in that location then find it with,

find / -name "gzip"

and update the location with /etc/PATH file or PATH environment variable for that current shell.

Do you have this package of,

# swlist SW-DIST.GZIP

If so then gzip is installed. Add that path.

OkÃ© I found it, you must add it to the webmin env variables. No I have another problem

Try logging in as Webmin administrator and update modules. Sometimes, it maynot be able to pick from the path due to various reasons.

# which gunzip
/usr/contrib/bin/gunzip

#export PATH=$PATH:/usr/contrib/bin

Is web min running there? If so stop it firstly.

Same problem with debian + webmin as,

Which version of Webmin you have installed on your machine ?

# swlist |grep -i webmin

Try installing latest package,

This I have done. But you get version 1.070 but I want to add the bind modules. So I need the latest version 1.230. And now I have problems updating the webmin to 1.230

It's better to install webmin separately instead of Uograding from HP's webmin since it is cut down version of Opensource webmin, Try downloading manually and installing it. It should work.
