Updates / Re: The version stays at 1.6
« Last post by cgauthey on August 02, 2026, 07:36:44 PM »No, version 1.07 exists;
it fixes ModSecurity, among other things, and has breathed new life into the FTP manager.

Information / Re: CWP: What is the future of the project? Is it still the right choice?
« Last post by Starburst on August 02, 2026, 04:42:58 PM »Hi,
I think mine modsec works i keep getting emails of blocked IP's
Had a few bugs since last night update but for now I see few problems:
Firewall module: The module firewallv2 does not exist.
Mod Security: just keeps loading and stops.
Before this CWP was offline with cert error which I did fix with command from other post.
Apache stoped to work also had to rebuild new version which is good but think configuration files are overwritten also sites which are loaded with index.php went back first index was index.html
Firewall GUI is mostly fixed in 1.6
If you are running CSF 15.10 you can access everything to the bottom left of the menu bar.
15.10 installed it's own backup.
The GUI for ModSecurity is currently broken. :/

See if there's anything unusual, and post it here.
(But protect your privacy, and avoid posting anything specific to you, such as your address or domain.)
Code: [Select]
# tail -30 /usr/local/cwpsrv/logs/access_log

Information / Re: Modernizing CWP: Drop EOL, Support AL9, AL10 & Rocky
« Last post by Namaste on August 02, 2026, 04:24:33 PM »My intention in posting this request to the developers was to gather community support by encouraging everyone affected to respond and post here. I hoped that, if the number of replies increased to a significant level, it might give the developers more incentive to implement it sooner—similar to a petition. I did not intend to undermine your efforts which I acknowledge and support.
Your post may seem new, but I have seen it posted by someone else 10 years ago. Nothing has changed, nothing will change.

« Last post by Namaste on August 02, 2026, 04:22:04 PM »I ditched cwp last year for virtualmin and never looked back. I had used cwp probably for 5 years with no significant developer advancements. cwp has more bugs than windows. No one cares, no one replies except members of the forum. In the first years, there were many big contributors, but they have all jumped ship or just lost interest. Life goes on. The new generation has no patience or interest in fixing the absolute worst choice for open source webpanel.
Virtualmin is stable and after a year i have never encountered a single bug. GUI is excellent but takes a while to adjust after using cwp for many years. I am running on ubuntu. and you should too. Centos days are done. When I hear centos I think Netscape, netmeeting, and Napster.
Centoscwp doesnt even advertise this forum on their website. And there is a good reason why they are not doing so. They dont want potential new users to learn the truth. On the positive side, this forum is now operating on https after 12 years of no ssl certs.
Stop wasting your time and switch to virtualmin or aapanel. Signing up for centoscwp means daily visits to this fixit forum for the next 5 years. Over the past year I have never needed to visit any support forum for virtualmin.

Updates / Re: CWP Cannot be Installed in Alma 8 - Devel repo Issue
« Last post by Netino on August 02, 2026, 03:58:42 PM »With AL8 modsec is not working, but ill check what you said, but not even the php is working, and i mean the only php working is the one for the panel, php version switch and php-fpm cannot been installed in alma linux 8, is not working, everything is broke.
What are your Webservers choice? (Apache only, nginx only, Apache<->nginx, etc.)
There is a problem with Modsecurity-nginx conector, it's a headache to fix.
The problem is with Modsecurity-nginx connector, must be downgraded.
It is a serious problem, and the bug only appears under specific conditions—specifically, when rendering large pages exceeding 500 KB.
I contacted the developers of the ModSecurity-Nginx connector last year and opened an issue because the bug was cutting off part of the page, and they fixed it. But it looks like there was a regression problem, and the bug has been reintroduced. There’s no other option; if you’re using Nginx, you have to downgrade.
The ModSecurity-nginx connector eats up a portion of the resulting HTML page.
If your CWP have a few sites, not problem. But if your server have dozen of sites, CWP ends up completely broken, unreadable.
I spent three days, to find the problem.
But the problem is specific to Modsecurity-nginx connector, if you use nginx only web server.
Modsecurity for Apache is all ok, normally. Or it should be working normally; the problem many people are experiencing lies with the CWP interface for ModSecurity, not with ModSecurity for Apache itself.

Yea, tried to update PHP, and just got the wheel spinning.
Kinda looks like Windows when it doesn't want to do something.
Take a look at your error, and see if this can help:
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/apache-wont-start-after-enabling-mod_security/
Good thing the settings can be done thru CLI & nano.
