PHP / Re: Anti-Change Log
« on: June 10, 2025, 10:04:32 AM »
It is NOT being 'abandoned', and I hate people posting this misinformation crap about CWP.
Last update came out 2025-05-11.
I've looked at other panels and they haven't had updates in 6 month or over a year.
There have been major changes between what CentOS 7 was, and AlmaLinux 8.
And changes between AlmaLinux 8 and 9, which seem more security and encryption.
Now AlmaLinux 10 is out, and has more changes. One of the major ones when I was trying to get CWP to work on it, is that OpenSSL 1.1.x backward compatibility is gone from the EPEL library.
It's OpenSSL 3.x or nothing. But OpenSSL has been available on AL8 and AL9.
ionCube faced the same problems, and decided just to skip PHP 8.0.x, they leapfrogged from 7.4.x to 8.1.x
Now PHP announced another major change in the PHP 8.5.x structure.
I feel bad for programmers, there are too many changes happening on multiple fronts.

Those instructions are for 10.11 LTS branch, so when you install the MariaDB repo, it will install the latest 10.11.x version.
Unless you specify an older 10.11.x version manually.

PHP / Re: PHP-selector instalation problem
« on: June 05, 2025, 05:24:53 AM »
I see your running EL7 (CentOS 7), what's probably happening in the background when it's trying to build PHP is the URL's and paths needed to rebuild PHP on CentOS 7 are no longer valid, since it's past EOL.
I'm not sure if pointing you repos to the vault URL will help fix this problem or not, but it's worth a try until you can upgrade to AL9.
Here is a link to that, if you have not done it yet:

Yea, only update via the CLI using
A dependency might not have installed via that yum manager.
If you followed the guide, it should have installed the latest version of 10.11.x
Unless of course, you did the before 10.11.13 came out.
Try running the above CLI update command first.
If that fails, try the upgrade as a last resort.

This is probably related to the other issue that corrupted your server.
At this point, you might want to just wipe it and start over.

Steps 4 & 6 are critical with EL9/AL9.
WordPress should create the database automatically.
IF it doesn't then when you create the database, you also have to create the admin user for that database, then enter all that data when installing WordPress, overwriting the auto entry it's made.

If you wanted Webalizer instead of GoAccess, all that needed to be done was:
But GoAccess is built into the client portal.

Which part of, YOU OVERWROTE THE APACHE INSTALLATION following the wrong guide, didn't make sense.
Now you have to try & undo what you did, without corrupting the system further.
Hence why I recommended hiring CWP to try & fix it for you.

That is because AlmaLinux is NOT Ubuntu. 
If you look at the packages it installed, you overwrote some key packages, like Apache when you where trying to install Webalizer.
Running a server you need some experience, so you don't follow guides not for your OS.
Your best bet now is to do the 1 time support from CWP, and see if they can restore the server.
If not, hope you made a snapshot (which is always recommended, before making major changes) you can restore to.
Otherwise, you'll be rebuilding the server from scratch.

Installation / Re: AL10 Install Problem
« on: June 02, 2025, 12:35:50 AM »TBE -- to be expected. Some more transparency and communication from the devs would be very desirable and would assure other current & future customers. A roadmap, changelogs, a dev blog... anything would be good.
Agreed.
OpenSSL 3.x is already in AL8 & AL9.
Trying to Keep it backwards compatible to an EOL OS (CentOS 7) at this point isn't worth it, and is doing more harm.
And really EL8/AL8 is out of it development phase, and in it's security updates only phase.
There is a reason beta's are released, so programmers have time for updates, and not fall behind the 8.

That's the stats program built into CWP.
So when you are in the user control panel, on the main page under 'CWP Settings', look for 'Statistcs'
The next window that comes up will ask you to select 'Domain, Frequency, Data' and the click 'Generate'.
It will open a new window with the stats Dashboard, and if you look in the bottom left corner, the sideways test will read 'by GoAccess v1.9.4 and GWSocket', if you have the latest version installed with AL9.
Also on the right side you will see Goaccess Log Analyzer where you can also delete old files to save space.

Installation / Re: AL10 Install Problem
« on: May 31, 2025, 08:51:37 AM »
Well after manually installing the last OpenSSL 1.1.1w version, which is now past EOL. There was no joy.
AL8 & AL9 had compat-openssl11, but EL10 finally dropped this strictly for the current OpenSSL 3.x.
So until CWP updates cpwsrv's dependency on OpenSSL 1.1.1 to OpenSSL 3.x, we are stuck running AL9 for the time being.

@overseer or @cyberspace had posted a nice tutorial how to manually update GoAccess which is CWP's analytics program.
I tried searching for it, but couldn't find it.
Hopefully 1 of the 2 can repost it for you.
I'll also keep looking for you.
But GoAccess is only like 1 version behind the current one. 1.9.3 vs 1.9.4
