error installing softether source with checkinstall

Post by markhorrocks » Tue Dec 01, 2015 1:01 pm

When trying to create a softether package from source and install using checkinstall on a new ubuntu 14.04 VPS I get this error:

unable to create `/proc/sys/kernel/threads-max.dpkg-new' (while processing `./proc/sys/kernel/threads-max'): No such file or directory

These are the commands I used to produce this error:

ssh root@my_new_14.04_vps_ip
apt-get update && apt-get -y upgrade
apt-get -y install git-core build-essential readline-devel ncurses-devel openssl-devel
apt-get install checkinstall
git clone https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftEtherVPN.git
cd SoftEtherVPN
./configure
checkinstall -D make install

any assistance appreciated.
