Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/266

I'm getting that error when I try to initially install the server. I am running a ubuntu server with all of the dependencies installed. When I setup a server without LGS, it works fine. However I want to use the script because of the ease of access of everything and since it's the closet thing to a control panel for games I can afford.
So yeah, can someone help me out with this?

Can you send a screenshot of the installer please. Is there any error message being displayed?
