Hi!
I installed softaculous on a ubuntu server with plesk, and its not pain free. Support came a bit delayed, and lacking. Here is what I did.

1. Install gcc first, you have to use this method:

sudo apt-get install gcc build-essential

2. When making a new domain from the plesk panel, configure it to allow users to have ssh access. From the plesk options I used ssh/bash, and  allowed the domain admin to grant users access to ssh . If you have an existing domain reconfigure it to allow users to use ssh. This solved the "The MySQL Connection could not be established." problem that bugged me when installing scripts found in softaculous.

------------------------------------

3. If you need to turn safe mode off, for some reason clicking on the "safe mode off " on the plesk panel doesnt work, so i did it manually.

Create a "vhost.conf" file in "/var/www/vhosts/<DOMAIN.TLD>/conf/"

<Directory /var/www/vhosts/<DOMAIN.TLD>/httpdocs>
php_admin_value safe_mode off
</Directory>

Rebuild the domain configs for the particular host via:

/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/websrvmng -u --vhost-name=<DOMAIN.TLD>
or rebuild all via:

# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/websrvmng -a
Maybe softaculous can include a script to disable safe mode when installing scripts  automatically. Specially with wordpress and other scripts that need safe mode off . So we dont need to do it manually per domain.

Hi,

Thanks for the FeedBack sir, but I am not sure about you enabling the "SSH" to create DBs.
Which version of Plesk are you using ?
Also is the following file existing on your system :
/etc/psa/.psa.shadow

Softaculous doesnt use SSH to create DBs.
It simply connects as root and creates DBs.

Regards,
Alons
