Alma 8.1 VM with latest CWP and MariaDB update problems
« on: March 21, 2025, 08:11:54 PM »
I've seen 2 similar messages, but none of the solutions worked for me.

I have a new AlmaLinux 8.10 VM with 6GB RAM and 4 vCPU, and did a 'dnf update' with no problems.
I then installed CWP, again with no problems.  I can login, setup items, firewalls, etc.
When I try to update from the CWP GUI, I get a message:

Last metadata expiration check: 0:02:01 ago on Fri Mar 21 14:30:53 2025.
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

When I now try to do a 'dnf update' from CLI, I get this:

This error appears with a completely new installation of Alma8 and CWP.  I wouldn't think I need to do any more.

I tried instructions from here, similar results:
https://wiki.centos-webpanel.com/mariadb-upgrade-to-new-version

I checked the module list:
[root@rn1 ~]# dnf module list mariadb

I tried to disable everything but the 10.5 stream, but it seems to re-enable them back to normal:

Thanks for your reply and solution.  I thought 10.11 wasn't supported by CWP, but followed the instructions on that link.  I did get this message on the line to yum install MariaDB-server:

Error: Transaction test error:
  file /usr/share/man/man1/mariabackup.1.gz from install of MariaDB-server-10.11.11-1.el8.x86_64 conflicts with file from package mariadb-backup-3:10.3.39-1.module_el8.8.0+3609+204d4ab0.x86_64
  file /usr/share/man/man1/mbstream.1.gz from install of MariaDB-server-10.11.11-1.el8.x86_64 conflicts with file from package mariadb-backup-3:10.3.39-1.module_el8.8.0+3609+204d4ab0.x86_64


So I removed the mariadb-backup package, tried again, and all was good.
