DNS / Re: Problem connecting to CWP server on Cloudflare
« Last post by Starburst on February 18, 2026, 07:15:52 PM »CWP doesn't talk to Cloudflare.
So any changes on your CWP server won't affect Cloudflare, and vs versa.

This project seems to be dead, as we have not received any updates since Nov 2024, and there is no support on the forum either.
Some time ago, I contacted the CWP team, and they said they were working, but they blocked me then. There are a few members who are running the forum by just saying "CWP Team is working, CWP is not dead, blah blah, etc.." and a few of them are sharing their article users, but the actual CWP team doesn't bother looking at the forum.
It's time to move on
Project is NOT DEAD. Not sure why you keep posting that line...
CWP pushed an update today (2026-02-18) 0.9.8.1222.
And before that 0.9.8.1221 was pushed on 2026-02-02
It's personal preference if you want to stop using CWP and 'move on'
I've tested other panels, and they all have CVEs and can not be kept updated as easily as CWP can be.
Some don't even have the features CWP has, and cost $$$ more.
Can CWP do better with some things, yes.

DNS / Problem connecting to CWP server on Cloudflare
« Last post by guigox on February 17, 2026, 04:54:56 AM »I configured the DNS on the CWP Pro server in Cloudfare, but now when I log in and click on anything, it keeps logging me out, even after logging back in. How can I use it in Cloudfare without this happening?

Alright folks, this is my last post here.
I’m officially moving away from Control Web Panel and I’m not looking back. This isn’t a rage-quit. It’s a long-overdue “operations sanity” decision.
Why I’m leaving:
Open-source is amazing when it’s actively maintained and supported.
But if you’re running a business, charging clients, or your uptime matters, then support and accountability aren’t “luxury items.” They’re the basics.
So yeah… I finally did it. Moved on.
And honestly, if you’re reading this while firefighting the same stuff every week maybe you should consider it too.
No hate, no personal beef just facts from the trenches.
Wishing you all the best.
Logging off for good...

Alright folks, this is my last post here.
I’m officially moving away from Control Web Panel and I’m not looking back. This isn’t a rage-quit. It’s a long-overdue “operations sanity” decision.
Why I’m leaving:
- Admins missing in action. Too often it feels like nobody is steering the ship.
- A few loud users run the forum. If you ask real questions, you get politics instead of answers.
- Support reality: Asking for help here is mostly useless and if you positively criticize something, some people act like you committed a crime.
- The usual reply: “Go buy a paid panel then.” Cool. That’s exactly what I did because when clients are paying me, I need reliability and support, not forum drama.
- Updates went for a toss: There hasn’t been a meaningful update in forever (feels like a year+). PHP updates feel like a wishful dream, roadmap talk stays talk, and the product momentum just isn’t there.
- Updates + security: CVEs get discovered fast… but fixes feel slow. And in between, you’re left patching holes with your own custom scripts just to keep things tight.
- DIY forever: Fixing loopholes and making things “production-safe” shouldn’t require custom scripts for half the stack, but here we are.
- DNS cluster (sorry): It’s not production-grade. I ended up writing my own DNS cluster scripts and they’ve been more stable and predictable than what I got out of the box.
Open-source is amazing when it’s actively maintained and supported.
But if you’re running a business, charging clients, or your uptime matters, then support and accountability aren’t “luxury items.” They’re the basics.
So yeah… I finally did it. Moved on.

PHP Selector / Re: Support for PHP 8.4
« Last post by Wonder on February 13, 2026, 09:20:29 PM »The problem I mentioned was very simple: installing what I needed, as indicated in the message. It was right in front of me, and I didn't see it.
But I'm unable to install PHP 8.4.15 on CWP 8. If it's not one error, it's another... Ideally, I'd have it in php-fpm, but in the meantime... This is becoming urgent, at least for me. A website requires PHP 8.4, and if I don't install it... it's a bad situation.

Apache / Re: Apache 2.4.66 released on 2025-12-04
« Last post by overseer on February 13, 2026, 02:32:38 PM »Possibly a security weak spot, but consider that the CWP team leans into LTS branches of software, befitting an Enterprise Linux base (slow moving, break as little as possible). Manually following Starburst's guide (linked above) will get you 2.4.66 -- not difficult to do the update.
