I have been trying to install a few CMS scripts and keep running into these missing modules. I have tried to install them and researched several ways to do this. I have installed the pear ZipArchive module and it continues to show missing zip, I have not found anything referencing the bcmath module...
I have tried to install the normal php zip module but havnt had any luck
Can any one point me in the right direction on how to properly install the php zip and bcmath modules?
A fresh install of virtualmin is close on my mind to see if that helps!
Howdy,
You're not likely seeing an issue with your Virtualmin installation. You may just need to make some tweaks to ensure that those modules are installed and enabled.
I believe I recall that you were using Ubuntu 16.04.
Try running this command:
apt-get install php7.0-bcmath php7.0-zipDoes that help?
If not, what PHP Execution Mode is it that you're using?
It may be a matter of manually enabling the module in that particular mode's PHP config file.

I have tried that and just attempted it again and this is the out put i get.

I do not get to hit y or n it just immediately aborts. my installation is also failing to update packages for some reason now as well...
To upgrade to the pro version does it require a fresh install?

Ah, I think I see the issue... are you running that command from within Virtualmin/Webmin?
To install packages using apt requires user interaction (ie, hitting that 'y' key)... which unfortunately doesn't work if you're doing it from within Virtualmin/Webmin.
To get around that, you can log in as root via SSH to run the commands.
Alternatively, there's also a Software Packages option in Webmin that you can use to perform the installation.

Yeah I have been running it through the terminal in we admin. I will try it through ssh.
And what is the software package to install it with. I have installed the version associated with pear
Joseph Dollinger
I suspect all you'll need to do is run the "apt-get" command mentioned in Comment #2 above using SSH as root, that will likely resolve the issue you're seeing in your web app. You probably don't need to make any changes using PEAR.

I got it worked out! Thanks!
