Installer Failing on Clean AWS CentOS Server

[WillW]

Hi,
By way of

wget -N http://httpupdate.cPanel.net/latest
and
sh latest

I attempted the installation of cPanel with WHM. It failed. The last of the failure messages included:

The first instance I tried this on, I had already installed MySQL, emacs and wget, along with SSH credentials for two users When it failed. I removed the installation of it and attempted the second installation by the above methods. It failed again. I terminated the instance and created a new one, installed emacs SSH credentials for two users and wget. It failed again. This is a trial installation.

Hello

It does not appear to be a fresh installation of CentOS if Percona is already installed on your system. You can find the software requirements for new installations of cPanel/WHM at:

cPanel Installations - Software Requirements

Thank you.

Indeed, it was not. I had to switch the AMI that I was using. Hopefully I won't make too many of these mistakes.
