E-Mail / Re: PHP Mail() Send Path
« on: May 14, 2024, 02:53:57 PM »
Consider moving to SMTP authenticated mail sending. PHP's mail function is considered a security hole and often disabled on shared hosting servers.

Suggestions / Re: why is there no intention to change the administration on CWP team?
« on: May 14, 2024, 02:49:50 PM »
I think the devs are in their comfort zone for growth and development and earn a sufficient income to keep the status quo. Likewise, I am in the comfort zone as far as paying for the product and using it contentedly. I don't relish the thought of going back to cPanel and from time to time I survey the control panel landscape, but don't want to lightly change anything for my own customer's sake.

CentOS-WebPanel GUI / Re: Create User, can't ssh in
« on: May 14, 2024, 02:46:56 PM »
I use "sudo -s" to change to root, as it inherits the current environmental variables. On my servers, I only have one sudo user and have root login disabled with ssh. And only one privileged account has shell access -- I don't give it to customers by default, only on a case-by-case basis.

Installation / Re: Y2K deja vu
« on: May 06, 2024, 03:47:20 PM »
I don't really believe the Chicken Little weather report. CWP EL9 support is in beta, so a version should be forthcoming and it should be stable for production use thereafter. Meanwhile, you can use RHEL for limited use (check the license restrictions for # of free seats), Oracle, Rocky, or (best choice) AlmaLinux 8.

Use https with port 2083 (instead of http with port 2082):

Nginx / Re: Nginx Ultimate Bad Bot Blocker for CWP and CWP PRO !
« on: May 05, 2024, 01:58:42 PM »
That's one drawback with CWP -- precious little advance communication or a roadmap for features. Not unless josemnunez pops in and gives a word. That's the only way we knew EL9 support was in beta!

PHP / Re: Memcached php 8x
« on: May 05, 2024, 03:43:03 AM »
Which version of php 8 specifically? 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3?

Information / Re: question about centos
« on: May 05, 2024, 03:41:40 AM »
CentOS 7 just went EOL (end of life) in April of 2024. There may be a couple more critical security updates, and paid extended support is available. But there's no need to keep things on life support. An upgrade path exists to transition over to AlmaLinux 8, using their ELevate tool. So that is the path forward to keep your CWP server secure and up to date (and then when CWP is stable on EL9 releases, you can update to AlmaLinux 9).

E-Mail / Re: Roundcube: Connection to Storage Server Failed
« on: May 05, 2024, 03:38:24 AM »
Do your logs give you any clues?
/usr/local/cwpsrv/var/services/roundcube/logs/
especially /usr/local/cwpsrv/var/services/roundcube/logs/errors.log
Usually storage server errors with Roundcube indicate an IMAP connection issue. Is dovecot functioning normally? So also check out

CentOS 8 Problems / Re: mysql get 300% cpu
« on: May 04, 2024, 02:05:33 AM »
Of course, I meant / etc / my.cnf -- I was on the run for that last message.
I'm a belt & suspenders kind of person, so I use both:
https://launchpad.net/mysql-tuning-primer (shell)
https://github.com/major/MySQLTuner-perl (perl)
There's also phpMyAdmin > Status > Advisor for some recommendations.
If you want the full Swiss Army knife, get mysqlreport:
http://hackmysql.com/mysqlreport
and mytop:
http://jeremy.zawodny.com/mysql/mytop/
As for Invision Power Board, this seemed salient:
https://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/91428/invision-power-board-3-4-6-mysql-locks-during-query-with-pending-updates
Check the accepted answer -- make sure you are ussing InnoDB and not MyISAM for the table engine. Also note that it may be counter-intuitive, but having too large a tmp table size may reduce performance.
Also, why does your server not have swap? Seems odd to me...

CentOS 8 Problems / Re: mysql get 300% cpu
« on: May 03, 2024, 07:27:30 PM »
You have to edit your / etc / mysql.conf with your performance tuning options. I would definitely recommend the perl tuning script -- it gives very good suggestions as to what the tuned options should be on your system.

E-Mail / Re: Backup migration between Cpanel and CWP
« on: May 02, 2024, 09:27:57 PM »
At this point, you may be best off moving the cPanel backup (.tar.gz) file to the CWP server. Expand it, then you can manually move the mailbox contents into the corresponding /var/vmail domain folders.

« on: May 02, 2024, 09:22:52 PM »
Does your forum software recommend any MySQL tuning options? I know various CMS platforms have specific recommendations (e.g. Drupal needs a much larger max_allowed_packet). Have you looked at general purpose MySQL tuning scripts?

CentOS 5 Problems / Re: ftp and webmail ip address
« on: May 02, 2024, 01:56:49 AM »
If you're behind a router with your server, look into hairpin NAT. But unless you're just tinkering with a home lab server, I would suggest getting a dedicated static IP (internet routable) for your CWP server.
