Any of the following:

- The /var/www directory does not exist.
- The /var/www directory is not owned by the user you are running the script as.
- The /var/www/html directory already exists and is owned by another user.

"File exists" is the clue that the third one would be a good place to start looking.

Yes the installer will fail the first try if /var/www/html exists. It will do the same thing on CentOS. Just delete that directory and the installer will recreate it. I think if you run the installer a second time it will get past that error but I can't remember the exact reason why.

Anways it's not a big deal. Just the way it is and you just have to work around it.

My recollection is that none of this matters. The initial FreePBX install gets overwritten by the Incredible PBX image so... when the install is finished, all should be well.
