On Ubuntu, you can just issue apt-get install cpanminus.  Did that work for you?

Nope: E: Couldn't find package cpanminus

You have an issue with your package repository, I think.  What version of 
Ubuntu are you running?  Another way to install cpanminus is to just download 
it, as per the installer: curl -LO http://xrl.us/cpanm

I actually did download it and got up and running; I thought you might just 
want to be an issue with the installer. But maybe it's my repo. I'll check it 
out.

Ok, please let me know if it is indeed an installer bug.  I would think others 
would have reported the issue as well.  I'll close in a day or two if I don't 
hear back.

Hi there

I installed the cpanminus following the above instructions but still my elsa.sh 
cannot find the cpanminus installed. Also, the widehat.opensuse.org is not 
reachable. Please find attached the output of the install and help me out.

It says that the cpanminus failed because widehat.opensuse.org was not 
reachable.  That address is not in the install.sh, it is provided by the Ubuntu 
mirror server.  This can happen from time to time if a mirror is down for 
maintenance and there's not much I can do about it from the install.sh script.  
You should try to re-run it and hopefully it will either pick a different 
mirror or that mirror will be up.

Well the server is up now but it says '403 Forbidden'!!! Is there any work 
around? Ironically, cpanminus is already installed manually and is up to the 
latest version. i really don't get it!

The "403 forbidden" message can mean a number of things.  Is this a new install 
just used for ELSA or are there other web sites on this server?  Are you just 
trying to access the basic ELSA index page at http://127.0.0.1 (or whatever 
server IP you're using) or are you putting anything else there.  Are there any 
errors in /data/elsa/log/web.log?

We are running Debian stable and have had the same issue with missing cpanminus.
Cause: install.sh failed because cpanminus is not in debian stable repository 
(it's added in testing).

Our solution:
Install manually: curl -L http://cpanmin.us | perl - --sudo App::cpanminus
Remove cpanminus from two apt-get lines in install.sh, grep 
"apt-get.*cpanminus" /usr/local/elsa/contrib/install.sh

What we did was:
mkdir elsanew
cp /usr/local/elsa/contrib/install.sh elsanew
edit elsanew/install.sh to remove cpanminus
use elsanew/install.sh for updates and check diff: diff elsanew/install.sh 
/usr/local/elsa/contrib/install.sh
if install.sh has been updated, cp /usr/local/elsa/contrib/install.sh 
elsanew/install.sh and edit elsanew/install.sh to remove cpanminus

Hopefully fixed in rev 446.

Changed state: Fixed

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

works for "install.sh node update", since cpanminus is removed from apt-get 
line in function ubuntu_get_node_packages, it do not look for cpanminus in 
debian repository anymore. 

But, for "install.sh web update", the function ubuntu_get_web_packages calls an 
apt-get line which looks for cpanminus and because debian stable repository do 
not have cpanminus it gives: 
E: Unable to locate package cpanminus
ubuntu_get_web_packages FAIL

Oops, thanks for pointing that out.  Please try the latest install.sh.
