Install error: Checking for perl...Perl was not found on your system: Please install perl and try again

Just trying a Centos 6 VPS from Digital Ocean. Never had this during an install before:

Checking for HTTP client...found /usr/bin/curl -s -O Checking for perl...Perl was not found on your system: Please install perl and try again [root@web1 ~]#

Any ideas? I've never installed Perl before :)

Howdy -- it sounds like your OS image there doesn't have the perl package installed.

You can install that by running this command as root on your server:

yum install perl

Once you do that, you should then be able to run the Virtualmin install.sh script.

That worked great, thank you :)
