Missing or bad entry found in your preseed file.

Hi,

Installing 1.2.2 on Ubuntu 14.04, I can't get any preseed file to work. I have tried using the default one provided in the docs folder in the zip file, and merely changing the IPs, but even this generates the same error.

Command used: perl imscp-autoinstall --debug --noprompt --preseed /root/preseed.pl

The error is as in the thread title:

Code

[FATAL]
Missing or bad entry found in your preseed file.
[FATAL]

Does anyone have a working preseed or know what is wrong with the default one? I am working on a deployment script and it would really help.

Hello ;

Try to run the same script without the --noprompt option to know which entry is missing. Normally, you'll be asked only about missing entries so it will be easy after to adjust your preseed file.

After several attempts I got it working by changing "Rainloop" to "RainLoop" in the preseed. This worked both for the included one in the zip and the one I had made for myself (so I presume it wasn't a fluke).

You may want to update the preseed for the next patch.

Thanks for the tip on removing --noprompt, there were a couple of other prompts but it narrowed it down.

@o-leary

Thank you for your feedback. I'll now be able to fix the typo

Should be fixed. See https://github.com/i-MSCP/imsc…a2fce51326ec97ad788a41e62
