# Error: mkisofs not found in $PATH

https://jaredrhodes.com/blog/error-mkisofs-not-found-in-path/

Using the [KVM terraform provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/dmacvicar/libvirt/latest), I ran into the following error - Error: mkisofs not found in $PATH. After hours of trying to install it on a Debian based server, the realization that the executable was missing from the **CLIENT** and not the **SERVER** dawned on me.

If this error is currently blocking progress, be sure to INSTALL MKISOFS ON THE CLIENT and don't worry about the server!
