Firewall does not get enabled in CentOS8 install of CWP

I have installed CWP on CentOS8. The firewall is not getting enabled.
When i run the commands to enable from the terminal, i get below errors.
 

Code: [Select]

[root@server ~]# csf -x; csf -e
*Error* The path to iptables is either not set or incorrect for IPTABLES [/sbin/iptables] in /etc/csf/csf.conf at /usr/local/csf/lib/ConfigServer/URLGet.pm line 26.
Compilation failed in require at /sbin/csf line 21.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /sbin/csf line 21.

Any idea on how to fix them?

I have installed CWP on CentOS8. The firewall is not getting enabled.

It's because iptables isn't installed.

Just run this command:

Code: [Select]

yum install iptables

I've installed iptables, and firewall wont enable

Do you get some errors ?

You will with CentOS 8 Stream. Better to ELevate to AlmaLinux or start fresh with AlmaLinux 8 or 9.

What does line 21 and 26 say in /etc/csf/csf.conf?

CentOS 8 EOL happened long ago.
It's dead.

You want to run either AlmaLinux 8 or 9 for CWP.
