I can never seem to get CPAN to work on a LAMP instance out of the box.  This goes for everything from virtual machines in our internal systems to Amazon EC2 deployments.

I get the following error no matter what I try to install:

	   -- NOT OK
Running make test

Can't test without successful make
Running make install
  make had returned bad status, install seems impossible

Any advice here? This is really frustrating, a LAMP platform should be perl ready.

Hi Guys, as stated befere here I'm running the lucid samba file server appliance. Each night I do standard Amazon remote back up , and a local backup onto another windows machine for safety ??

I am in the testing the restore phase now , so I started with the local back up because it would be faster. I installed a fresh baremetal install of the appliance on the same machiine in an identical way to the original.

To begin the restore I , exited the confconsole and logged into a shell as root on the machine, and initialised TKLBAM-INIt etc , all well

I'm a linux newbie, so the Turnkey build for Joomla was the quickest way to load up Joomla. Many thanks for this.

Now I see that I need Samba so I can copy content to the Ubuntu machine from my windows PC.

the following command fails:

sudo apt-get install samba

also the following command seems to suggest that sudo has been removed?

bash: sudu: command not found ??

Any ideas please?

I'm trying to download a theme in wordpress and it's asking me for my ftp server address, login and password.  Please help.

I want to set up my turnkey lamp appliance so that I can connect to mysql from another host using tools like mysql administrator, phprunner, etc. I have set up a user account for this, and set the 'hosts' to '%', but connection is still refused. I recall that allowing connections from other hosts is disabled as standard as a security precaution, but that doesn't worry me (this is a virtual test server on a private lan). Does anyone know how to enable access from another host?

In my TKLBam window in (WebMin)  there is a radio button to "enable daily" backups but there is no way to "save" the setting.

Daily Backups were not installed as I need to set a Static IP up "after" full install, and TKLBam does not seem to take at install unless DHCP is set.  (I do not have DHCP in my DMZ).

Also, noted in feedback the ability to make Notations before Manual Backups or Restores are applied.  This would be quite helpful.

thanks for any and all help,

Hi all.

First of all, I would like to congratulate the team for the great TKLBAM tool, it really really makes things easier (or even possible) for us newbies.

I have a question, though, because I’m unable to fully backup/migrate a Joomla appliance using out-of-the-box TKLBAM. This is what I think it’s happening (correct me if I’m wrong, not a lot of experience with Joomla here):

Hi, is there a way I can update my linux appliance to joomla 1.6?

If not do you know when you will be releasing a joomla 1.6 version of your joomla appliance?
