PHP Selector / Re: PHPFPM 8.1.15 not getting build and activated
« on: March 04, 2023, 07:27:10 AM »
Probably something in CentOS 8; I'm running 3 x CentOS 7.9.2009 servers, CWP Pro with PHP 8.1 compiled just fine.

PHP Selector / Re: php_switch_v2 not working
« on: March 04, 2023, 07:20:14 AM »
I'll go ahead and address the elephant in the room: we often get these kinds of panicked "Help!" posts on the forum, but without much detail or logging or even a more comprehensive background and detailed configuration -- it makes these kinds of posts rather difficult to resolve. My eyes usually glaze over and I just skip past these posts. [/elephant]

E-Mail / Re: How to force user to change your mail password ? Quarterly
« on: March 04, 2023, 07:15:40 AM »
Studies show that this strategy is counter-productive. Enforced frequent password changes often have a negative effect, with users choosing less secure credentials, making a slight permutation change on their existing passphrase.

Installation / Re: Purchased CWP Pro, but Server not activating, Tried support but no response

And be careful if you have CSF blocking countries; you many inadvertently block essential services (the IP you listed shows as being geolocated in France).

CC_DENY = "CN"

E-Mail / Re: No send and Receibe Emails...
« on: March 04, 2023, 07:04:31 AM »
You've rebuilt the mail server? Is DNS set up and tested as working? rDNS in place? MX records? SPF TXT records?

PHP / Re: When PHP 8.2 will be available?
« on: March 04, 2023, 07:01:46 AM »
I guess the better question is, when will CWP run on PHP 8.1 instead of the obsolete, EOL PHP 7.1/7.2?

Information / Re: Cluster CWP (Multi-Server Manager) Availability
« on: March 04, 2023, 06:59:19 AM »
Are there any details of this feature documented anywhere? At this point I've adapted to managing my servers with tab groups in a Chromium-based browser and Royal TSX has one-stop management features that get the job done. Cockpit also promises to roll up multi-server management in one location. So I don't necessarily need it, but you have piqued my curiosity...

Did you check the access and error logs?
Did you fix permissions on the user account?

Information / Re: Change IP Public but at CWP Client list not changing
« on: March 04, 2023, 06:45:54 AM »
In phpMyAdmin, edit the root_cwp database. Edit the user table, ip_address column. I've seen this on VMs that I have moved from one physical IP address to another. I don't know that it's more than a cosmetic issue, as it doesn't seem to affect the vhosts (of course, change those IP references, too):
Code: [Select]

Migration from other control panels / Re: cwp-cwp migration Connection not reached The following error occurred

Duplicate posted in case it helps someone in the future:
For CWP->CWP Migration, you have to stand on your head, pat your belly, and rub your feet at the same time in order to make this work. Actually, I just had the opportunity to do a CWP -> CWP migration, so here was my solution to the failed connection errors:
Disable the firewall (CSF & LDF) on both servers.
On both servers, reset the r00t password to be 8 characters or fewer.
In
On the receiving server, use the interface in User Accounts > CWP->CWP Migration.
After successfully migrating the accounts, revert all changes to your SSH configuration, restart the ssh daemon, reset the r00t passphrases to strong ones, and re-enable the firewalls.

Migration from other control panels / Re: cwp-cwp migration Connection not reached The following error occurred
« on: March 03, 2023, 06:25:47 AM »on new server copy Public Key from: # cat /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pubAnd to be clear, this had no bearing on my connection difficulties. I already had my SSH key pair in place and it was in the authorized_keys, so that was not the issue. I too experienced the "Connection not reached - the following error occurred" error message before running down my solution list. (For sure, it was the standing on the head part that solved it...)
and paste Public key to Old server: # nano /root/.ssh/authorized_keys

Backup / Re: New Backup Error
« on: February 13, 2023, 09:46:17 AM »
Not to be snarky, but the New Backup is labeled as "beta" for a reason... I would expect to encounter some bugs along the way until it is fully shaken out!
