installing The Perfect Server CentOS 8 with Apache, PHP etc.

hello,
I am installing the above with this tut: https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial...l-php-pureftpd-postfix-dovecot-and-ispconfig/
At point 11 I get errors on two packages.

[root@ getmail-5.14]# dnf -y install amavisd-new
Failed to set locale, defaulting to C.UTF-8
Last metadata expiration check: 0:18:41 ago on Sat Jan 23 20:45:10 2021.
Error:
Problem: conflicting requests
- nothing provides perl(IO::Stringy) needed by amavis-2.12.1-3.el8.noarch
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)
[root@ getmail-5.14]#

[root@ getmail-5.14]#
[root@ getmail-5.14]# dnf -y install re2c
Failed to set locale, defaulting to C.UTF-8

No match for argument: re2c
Error: Unable to find a match: re2c
[root@ getmail-5.14]#

What did I miss? My OS is Centos 8.3.

Hello Th0m,
Thanks for the prompt answer. I always ignore the locale error. However your link to that page did solve the locale error. But the error I wanted to solve is still there.

[root@j ~]# dnf -y install amavisd-new

Hmm, one thing at the time. I need to go practice my ubuntu skills I guess. Cose debian I tried that once for a while but I don't really like it.

 

I know centos best, I need a while to get used to ubuntu, I used that as a desktop OS for a while. Currently I have a crappy centos 7 server which needs to be decommed. For now I will settle with this one. I know you don't like centos very much from before

Step 4, I think at least this step went wrong, it didn't gave a clear error before.
[root@# dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools
Error: No matching repo to modify: PowerTools.

 

gives no output, no error no confirmation

dnf config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools, gives the same error

 

I tried just now, that made the difference. Your a genius! The other error is gone now, I was able to install amavisd-new and rec2.
Now can I just continue at 11 or should I start allover? I will not wait for your answer today, I will read it tomorrow.
For now thanks a lot! I really impressed with that you've answered tonight, I didn't expect any answer until after the weekend.

 

next issue is certbot,
[root@ certbot]# ./certbot-auto
Skipping bootstrap because certbot-auto is deprecated on this system.
WARNING: couldn't find Python 3.6+ to check for updates.
Your system is not supported by certbot-auto anymore.
Certbot cannot be installed.
Please visit https://certbot.eff.org/ to check for other alternatives.

I had a look at that site, and I tried to get through it but I bump into other issues.

 

ah too late, I installed ISP-config already, I can not test certbot yet, cause I don't have an URL pointing at the server yet. I am a little busy with roundcubemail now.

I think I missed a step, but I did this part several times. I removed the table and the user and the whole directory but I keep getting:

DATABASE ERROR: CONNECTION FAILED!
Unable to connect to the database!
Please contact your server-administrator.

 

yes like is written in the tut, with my own password, this password I used in the installer. But I don't see where I do "Initialize database".

CREATE DATABASE roundcubedb;
CREATE USER roundcubeuser@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'roundcubepassword';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES on roundcubedb.* to roundcubeuser@localhost ;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit

 

Btw, I installed the first wordpress site on the server, the certificates are working for this site. And Wordpress has send me a mail saying that it is installed the default wordpress email. So the mail seems to be working.

 

although my squirel mail doesn't works yet. Sorry if I was unclear
