thanks for the help
The latter was only partially a success
Error: Defender logs entries
None entry was found in logs.
It is not possible to configure or, better, to select Basic, Intermediate, Extreme, not even to change it.
Modifying Defender mode does not work either.
I've now installed a fresh one on a VPS and a dedicated server as well as on a new host machine. It is the same for all three. So very simple standard installation.
As I write in other forum posts, we are more busy tinkering with CWP than with other panels. Even those that have already been installed are repeatedly changed and destroyed after updates. Can't that make sense of it all?
It quickly takes a rethink in the way CWP processes updates, i.e. testing beforehand and the repos must be reconsidered.
