Problems installing packages and updates with Almalinux8

[Starburst]

Ah, so ChatGPT was telling you the wrong thing. 

There is an install guide on here how to install CWP on AlmaLinux 9, that you can just cut & paste.

Glad someone got it working for you.

hi,
you're welcome, I don't question the precise instructions to copy and paste from the CWP site for a correct installation; the same goes for your precious instructions. Only that despite having done so, some things continued not to work; that's why I opened a post here. However, having quick needs for work, I also tried other ways (unfortunately wrong).

However, I would like to ask you for advice: for correct functionality, compatibility and stability, which version of PHP do you recommend? Keep in mind that I will be dealing mostly with WooCommerce sites with high traffic and at the moment on the old active server I have PHP 8.2.3. Some always recommend the latest possible version, but I think that not all plugins or themes are compatible, right?
Thank you very much

If most of your sites are based on Wordpress and WooCommerce  addon then it is better to use the PHP version recommended by Wordpress:

However, 8.2 would be ok.

Yes, you are right.

@overseer see's the best compatibility with 7.4.x

I would like ate the system requirement of the WordPress theme you'll be using and WooCommerce.
