Cloudmin Install Error

Hey guys,

I am trying to install the gpl version of this so I can try it out on my Ubuntu Server 18.04 w/kvm - QEMU emulator version 2.11.1(Debian 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.9)

This server has 8 cores / 32 gb of ram / 2 tb of storage locally / 8tb remote storage.

Here is what I have done to this point: 1 - sudo wget http://cloudmin.virtualmin.com/gpl/scripts/cloudmin-kvm-debian-install.sh 2 - chmod +x cloudmin-kvm-debian-install.sh 3 - ./cloudmin-kvm-debian-install.sh

and now i am getting the following error:
E: Package 'kvm' has no installation candidate .. install failed

Has any of you run in to this?

Thanks, Michael

Maybe you should install from inside the kvm as if it was a real machine. I run stacks of Cloudmin / Virtualmin / Webmin on top Virtualbox. If you try to install a kvm-image inside a kvm box that's not going to work, so use the script that installs directly onto the machine.

I have the very same problem. Does anyone knows the solution?

I found on Ubuntu 18.04 server a possible fix: It looks like the install script is trying to install KVM and QEMU with the command 'apt-get -y install kvm qemu', on line 170, which is causing the error. The error states 'kvm' is not an available package from apt. I think the package it wants is 'qemu-kvm', so if you change line 170 of the script to 'apt-get -y install qemu-kvm' it seems to work.

Not sure how to get that change set upstream to the script creators, but this seems to have allows the rest of the script to process correctly.
