Ubuntu/Webmin Jailkit error: “Perl. Can’t locate Config/IniFiles.pm”

On my development server, while trying to access Jailkit Jail Manager in Webmin, I stumbled upon the error above: “Perl. Can’t locate Config/IniFiles.pm” (and some more details). Obviously, Jailkit was not working.

This was fixed by logging into the server and then:

  • sudo cpan
  • force install Config::IniFiles
  • exit
