Just wondering... Has anyone here attempted to install cPanel under an OpenVZ VPS?

there should be no much problems in doing so...
if you experience some, please report it and we'll do our best to fix it or help with it.
P.S. there are people who use it on commercial VZ.

Yes, I have. It works beautifully. Make sure you follow the (openvz) manual on enabling disk quotas inside the VPSes.

Mind sharing your QoS parameters? I have been testing cPanel on OpenVZ, and it has not been working well. Looking at the logs, it seems like I'm not allocating enough memory to the VE.

Actually, other than the VPS virtual disk limits, I have cPanel working fine on the openvz default settings for memory, etc. Currently what do you have set for the VPS with the problem?

I just set it at 999999999 for barrier and limit. Looking at cpanel-install-thread0.log, i keep seeing a "Failed to allocate memory" error on the perl compile in paticular.

My problem is that whenever i try to create an account via cPanel, there is no output once I press the create button. When I had a Virtuozzo server, I remembered this problem and cant seem to remember how to fix it.

You got me. I would try re-creating and re-installing cpanel on a fresh and updated VPS (if you haven't already) to see if you can recreate the problem. Sounds like that VPS is already hogging all kinds of memory at it stands.

Heres a new error I'm getting:

"Fatal Error: Unable to read data from /dev/urandom (No such file or directory). Please contact your system admin to have them repair the problem."

Also looking through the install logs, I saw an error message like

"Your server is out of pty's, please ask your system admin to create more."

This appears to be an template related problem, anyone have any advice?

Can you tell me your VPS template name-version, and what packages are installed into a VPS (output of vzctl exec NNN rpm -qa)?

It seems that somehow you deinstalled dev package which provides static device (/dev/*) nodes. Probably it happened because of udev installation. To fix the situation, you need to forceable deinstall udev and reinstall dev supplied by template (rpm file name is /vz/template/OSNAME/OSVER/vz-addons/dev*.rpm)

I have been using the Fedora core 3 template metadata from the download section.

Just a note.

cPanel wont install anymore unless Yum is installed in the VE. This also applies to Virtuozzo (which I use for work.. the dev's may recognize my name Smile
