I can't install Vesta

[Flash]

In new VPS i entered:

yum upgrade

curl -O http://vestacp.com/pub/vst-install.sh

bash vst-install.sh --force


but installation doesn't finish:

chown: cannot access `/etc/dovecot': No such file or directory
Adding user dovecot to group mail
Error: dovecot start failed

There's an error in the install script for RHEL:

Code: Select all

wget $CHOST/$VERSION/dovecot.tar.gz -O  /etc/dovecot.tar.gz
cd /etc/
rm -rf dovecot
tar -xzf dovecot.tar.gz
rm -f dovecot.tar.gz
chown -R root:root /etc/dovecot

The file http://c.vestacp.com/0.9.8/rhel/dovecot.tar.gz only contains dovecot.conf. On the server there's also a file named dovecot-new.tar.gz which seems to contain the correct files. As a result, the installation fails.

I edited the script so it says:

Code: Select all

wget $CHOST/$VERSION/dovecot-new.tar.gz -O  /etc/dovecot.tar.gz

Now the installation finishes without any errors. Just search the file vst-install-rhel.sh for dovecot.tar.gz and replace it with dovecot-new.tar.gz. Then start the installation again. :)

I guess Vesta should either rename dovecot-new.tar.gz to dovecot.tar.gz on your server (preferrably) or edit the script to fetch dovecot-new.tar.gz instead.

Forgot to mention that you should only replace the first occurence, so that:

Code: Select all

wget $CHOST/$VERSION/dovecot.tar.gz -O /etc/dovecot.tar.gz

instead looks like this:

Code: Select all

wget $CHOST/$VERSION/dovecot-new.tar.gz -O /etc/dovecot.tar.gz

That way, you're downloading dovecot-new.tar.gz, but it's saved as dovecot.tar.gz.

After editing the file, just run the script again:

Code: Select all

bash vst-install-rhel.sh --force
