Broken uninstallable packages

Hi all, I was wondering if somebody could possibly point me in the right direction, I've had a problem with my server and had to do a complete fresh reinstall and update everything, but for some reason it keeps asking for an update and is says this  ( Available updates - SECURITY ISSUE
CWP found 33 available yum/rpm updates for your server, click here to check it.)

Once I go to update them, this is the first message pop-up box I get.

(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

After attempting to do the updates, I get this message below and I'm scratching my head as to how to remedy this,
I am using CWP on a VPS hosted with vulture running on AlmaLinux which up to recently worked perfectly fine now I keep getting this message when trying to do the update.

I have paid for the premium version of CWP control panel I have noticed there has been no significant updates for a good bit of time  and I don't know if the project is still being actively developed or just maintained. As I've noticed that using CWP on anything else other than cent OS. Has been listed and beta testing for some time now as mentioned in the blog posts.

So I'm not sure if this problem is related to the OS I'm using or something that needs to be patched. Has anybody else come across this problem and has a potential resolution?So I'm not sure if this problem is related to the OS I'm using or something that needs to be patched.

CWP is actively supported and updated, no issues there. EL8 is actively supported and EL9 distributions are in beta support (generally working fine but CWP Migration does not work.

I assume you are running CentOS 7? It is beyond EOL (end of life), so it is not supported and updates are dried up. You will have to change your repositories to the archived "vault" versions:

Also update MariaDB to a current LTS version:

Hi overseer,

I am currently using an OS called AlmaLinux and have been from centos died a death, the era seems to be coming from MariaDB-common, so I'm not sure what's causing this.

AlmaLinux 8 or 9? Please follow the directions (above) to update MariaDB to the latest LTS stable supported version.

I agree, mariadb is a strong candidate to this problem, if the user did not updated as indicated.
Unfortunately, the graphical update of the CWP does not show which package(s) contain the error(s).
Try establishing an SSH connection and performing the manual update with the following command:

Code: [Select]

# dnf update

...and follow the possible program interactions.
