Installing Fantastico on Centos5.1
March 27, 2008
Ok, first of all .. this article originaly posted on netenberg.com, but for me it will be much more easier if I write it my own on my blog.
Centos 5.1 comes with wget version that is not compatible with Fantastico. So you wont be able to install it or upgrade it. Here’s the step that you need to take to remove buggy version of wget and install a “good” one :
rpm -qa wget ;
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/5/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm
rpm -e wget ;
rpm -ivh --force wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm ;
rpm -qa wget ;

fixing wget:
64-bit:
rpm -qa wget
wget archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/core/5/x86_64/os/Fedora/RPMS/wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm -e wget
rpm -ivh wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm -qa wget
32-bit:
rpm -qa wget
wget archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/core/5/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm
rpm -e wget
rpm -ivh wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm
rpm -qa wget
# Fantastico installation
cd /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi
wget -N http://files.betaservant.com/files/free/fantastico_whm_admin.tgz
tar -xzpf fantastico_whm_admin.tgz
rm -rf fantastico_whm_admin.tgz
# last step, login to WHM and run INSTALL

Thanks mo, piyecarane
Worked quite a charm.. seems some of the builds from theplanet come with a broken fantastico build, so you have to rename/remove the fantastico directory, then install the wget quoted above and then use mo’s instructions for fantastico installation..
