Updates / Re: CentOS 7 Update to CentOS 8 Stream
« on: April 05, 2024, 01:34:56 AM »
Better to ELevate to AlmaLinux 8, then upgrade to AlmaLinux 9 once CWP comes out of EL9 beta.
(In other words, the current best wisdom is to skip over a rolling release like CentOS 8 Stream, which is not a viable foundation for a server.)

E-Mail / Re: Roundcube update not working due to php version of cwpsrv
« on: April 04, 2024, 04:10:36 PM »
My radar is up... keen to know what version of PHP is used internally for cwpsrv in EL9, and what version of Roundcube is included by default!

DNS / Re: rDNS/PTR = FAILED
« on: April 04, 2024, 02:31:25 AM »
Your server FQDN (fully qualified domain name) is your server's hostname + domain name. Example: srv1.yourdomain.com -- The hostname is actually just "srv1" and the domain name is "yourdomain.com". For proper mail delivery. your server's FQDN should be a forward DNS A record that is resolvable on the public internet. And your ISP or colocation/VPS provider handles the PTR (rDNS) records for their netblock, since it is looked up via IP address. Mail servers interacting with your server expect to check your DNS forward & backward to confirm its identity. It's the biggest factor required for mail delivery to succeed (but now you also have to worry about SPF records, DKIM / DMARC...)

PHP Selector / Re: PHP-FPM Rebuild -PHP upgrade or downgrade always failed rebuild on Rocky Linux 8
« on: April 03, 2024, 07:03:57 PM »
Is this a fresh server install or are you invested in it? If starting fresh, the recommendation is AlmaLinux 8. Rocky has historically been rather "rocky" at times...

DNS / Re: rDNS/PTR = FAILED
« on: April 03, 2024, 02:38:25 PM »
It is expected that the FQDN of the server has rDNS (PTR record). So, in your example it is server.domain.com. You do not need ALL domains hosted on the server to have rDNS -- just so long as you have that main A record as resolvable forward & backward.

Installation / Re: Public beta of CWP for AlmaLinux 9 Available
« on: April 02, 2024, 02:19:40 AM »
Whoo-hoo!
(But my momma taught me how to count, so I have to go from 7 to 8 before I go to 9!)

Postfix / Re: After a server restore POSTFIX no longer works
« on: April 01, 2024, 01:56:58 PM »
It's worth mentioning again: if you are creating a fresh server today, don't use a beta OS like CentOS 8 Stream (even with delayed repos). Instead, start with AlmaLinux 8 (a true enterprise Linux, fit for server duty).

Installation / Re: Install,buy
« on: April 01, 2024, 01:54:47 PM »
Please just pay the devs their bit of money for Pro. It is worth it for all they bring to the table -- a good value proposition. Otherwise, seek out a free panel like Webmin if that will meet your needs.

CSF Firewall / Re: Security Alert: Potential SSH Backdoor Via Liblzma
« on: March 30, 2024, 09:59:07 PM »
I read about that:
https://www.theregister.com/2024/03/29/malicious_backdoor_xz/
No, the only EL distro affected was an unstable Fedora 40, far upstream and beta to our EL8 server OSes.

CWP API / Re: Delete cronjob users via API
« on: March 29, 2024, 05:12:51 PM »
Okay, I see what you're trying to accomplish. I would say the same thing re: user crontabs -- probably requires manual review before deletion. But that's just an opinion after 5 years with CWP, 15 years with cPanel before that. Most of my users don't know what a crontab is so I have very few user-level cron jobs in place on my servers. Unless you are facing buggy software that is auto-duplicating cron jobs and you are trying to de-duplicate... Care to share a concrete example?

CSF Firewall / Re: CWP add temporary allow ip on login control panel
« on: March 28, 2024, 06:25:19 PM »
No, just some Vietnamese site I came across once upon a time. It's in my notes for setting up a CWP server from scratch, so I point people to it as a suggestion for hardening a CWP install.

CWP API / Re: Delete cronjob users via API
« on: March 28, 2024, 06:23:05 PM »
I'm curious why you would delete user accounts via a cronjob? It's such a rare event on my servers that I would never automate it -- better to have the surety of manually deleting & confirming. In fact, I have ample server resources so I usually just suspend the account for at least a couple of months before coming later and cleaning up the user account. (Just in case the user returns or needs something off the account.)

Also consider changing your admin port from 2031 and/or 2087, which are commonly scanned by script kiddies. (And of course, you would NEVER use 2030 -- the port without SSL.)

PHP / Re: 503 Service unavailable
« on: March 26, 2024, 08:52:18 PM »
Did you check (and increase) max execution time, memory limit, etc. in your php.ini?
