i have cwp with spamassassin 3.4.0 installed. is possible to upgrade at least to 3.4.1 ?

overseer

SpamAssassin is version 3.4.6 on AlmaLinux 8, so you should be safe to upgrade to that version with CWP.

Last SpamAssassin on CentOS 7 was 3.4.4

So as long as you stay below or at that version, it should be OK.

FYI - AlmaLinux 9 uses 3.4.6 also.

You need to switch Centos' repos to Vault:

To do it:

1. Disable the vanilla Centos' repositories: cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
mv CentOS-Base.repo  CentOS-Base.repo_orig

2. Create and open the file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
using favorite text editor and put following content into the file:

[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/7.9.2009/os/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

[updates]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/7.9.2009/updates/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

[extras]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/7.9.2009/extras/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7   


3. Clean yum's cache
yum clean all       

4. Update outdated binary packages to the latest version provided by repository Centos' valut repository yum update

Please note you do it your own risk.

CentOS 7 is past EOL, and is now a dead OS.

You need to look at upgrading to AlmaLinux 8 or 9.
