Title: Server updates don't seem to be happening
Post by: Dangerousdave26 on March 15, 2025, 12:00:41 PM
It has been over a month since I last saw any updates that were ready to be installed on the server. There is 1 update that shows up for MariaDB and it is rather strange.

In the control panel under YUM Manager it some times shows as 7.0. If I run the update it says it was successful and reloads with version 7.1 showing as availble. I run 7.1 then 7.2 shows up. Run it and go back to the Yum Manager page and it is back to needing 7.1

If I run the YUM command from the command line I see it is actually failing to install.

If I go to the mirror link manually I can see in the yum folder there is no 10.4 folder.

How can I fix this mistake?

And again I have not seen any other updates for the server in a month.

CWPpro version: 0.9.8.1200
MySQL version: 10.4.34-MariaDB

You need to upgrade MariaDB to 10.6 or more recent version. You can find how to upgrade MariaDB here:
https://wiki.centos-webpanel.com/mariadb-upgrade-to-new-version
just adapt the instructions according to your requirements.

If you decide to upgrade MariaDB to

Support for CentOS 8 ended awhile ago, so MariaDB ended it's support as well.

Try switch the MariaDB.repo to use RedHat Enterprise 8.

Also starting with EL8, you should be using dnf instead of yum.

The server is running Alma 8 Linux if that changes anything.

Auto-updates cannot take place with your old MariaDB 10.4 version. Manually update MariaDB to 10.11 (an LTS version) .

I saw this in the screen shot:

http://mirror.mariadb.org/yum/10.4/centos8-amd64/repodata/repomd.xml

Which means your trying to use a MariaDB repository for CentOS 8, which they removed awhile ago.

You need to manually update your MariaDB.repo to Red Hat Enterprise 8.
Also 10.4 is past EOL.

You can do this at:
https://mariadb.org/download/?t=repo-config (https://mariadb.org/download/?t=repo-config)

Follow the URL @overseer posted to update to a supported version.
