i-MSCP - Installation hangs while packages installation

Quote from Ninos

Which debian version are you using? Second, what's the error message?

Hello ;

This user is a beginner which understands nothing to Linux. I've already fixed his vm once and he don't understand... I've banned him a first time because he annoyed me by sending me several private messages... His vm is not ready to install i-MSCP. From my memory, he must:

• Check his /etc/apt/sources.list file to be sure to have needed repositories (See below)
• Enable the i386 architecture by running: dpkg --add-architecture i386
• Update his vm by running: apt update && apt upgrade
• Install taskel and whiptail by running: apt-get install tasksel whiptail
• Install standard packages by running: tasksel install standard
• Install i-MSCP by running: perl imscp-autoinstall -d

Needed repositories in your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

Note: You can exclude the source package repositories if you want (lines starting by deb-src).

Next time please, choose a better title for your threads. You are not alone here. Also, it could be needed to take few days to learn more about Linux bases. Even if i-MSCP is a high level software, you need to know more about Linux before using it. We all begin a day, but ask for help without trying to understand will not help you.

Thank you.

apt-get install dialog

Hello ;

No Dialog is installed automatically by i-MSCP. The installation hangs because whiptail is missing Whiptail is the default frontend used by Debian/Ubuntu. i-MSCP is currently using Dialog but, I'll finish the whiptail adapter asap.
