Is there a question you have, or are you just informing of your current plans?

Hi overseer !
It's a small script I made with a bit of AI, but it works perfectly.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them and I'll answer.

Information / Re: CWP centos7 to CWP Almalinux 9 Migration Planned

« Last post by redmoor on December 22, 2025, 08:43:53 AM »

I installed a new Alma8 box to replace my CentOS7 and manually moved everything across without any problems.
However, I dont see much movement going forward, I think CWP Control Web Panel is a great project but it seems to have badly stalled.

For me its time to move on, I am in the process of configuring a new Alma 9 box with an alternative control panel installed - Virtualmin.
 
Updates and communication are key and nether seem to be high priorities for the CWP team.

I understand if you are going from an old CentOS7 box the temptation to use the migration tool, I did not go down that road as I dont have to skill set to identify nested problems that may remain after a migration.

CentOS 9 Problems / Re: CWP7 Pro DNS Editor Bug: DMARC TXT Record Truncated at Semicolon

« Last post by overseer on December 21, 2025, 03:41:22 PM »

I am a bit wary of the config editors after having a few bugs crop up like this. So I tend to edit DNS zones (rarely) in the CLI with nano.
Also note that Starburst found a bug in the Code Editor, so you may want to check out this one based on Ace Editor:

CentOS 9 Problems / Re: CWP7 Pro DNS Editor Bug: DMARC TXT Record Truncated at Semicolon

« Last post by 6Sense on December 20, 2025, 11:38:15 PM »

Are you using another DNS service in the interum as your current DMARC records show as fine in MXTools. I'm on ALMA 8 and don't seem to have this issue. Is it listed correctly in /var/named/your-domain.db

MXTools shows:

v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:dmarc@skon.gr; fo=1

CentOS 9 Problems / CWP7 Pro DNS Editor Bug: DMARC TXT Record Truncated at Semicolon

« Last post by Freespirits_GR_Host on December 20, 2025, 09:18:23 PM »

I’m reporting a DNS Editor issue in CWP7 Pro related to DMARC TXT
records.

Summary

When editing/adding a DMARC TXT record using the CWP GUI (User Panel DNS Functions), the record is silently truncated at the semicolon ( when published, resulting in an invalid DMARC record.

Environment

Product: CWP7 Pro

OS: AlmaLinux 9

DNS service: BIND/named (CWP-managed zone)

Zone: skon.gr

Server: pieria (hostname shown on server shell)

Steps to Reproduce

Go to: User Panel → DNS Functions → (User Defined Records) → Edit TXT

Edit or add a TXT record with:

Record Name: _dmarc

TTL (Cache): 600 (or default)

Text record value: v=DMARC1; p=none

Click Save record

Verify the published DNS record:

Code: [Select]

dig +short TXT _dmarc.yourdomain
Actual Result

The published DMARC record becomes:

Code: [Select]

"v=DMARC1"
The p=none part is missing (and any content after ; is dropped). This
produces an invalid DMARC record.

Expected Result

The published record should contain the full DMARC value, for example:

Code: [Select]

"v=DMARC1; p=none"

(or split across strings but still containing p=none).

Additional Evidence

SPF TXT records appear to be published fine (even if shown split in dig
output, which is valid). Example output:

Code: [Select]

dig +short TXT yourdomain
"v=spf1" "ip4:xx.xxx.xxx.xx" "a" "mx" "~all"

So the issue seems specific to DMARC-style TXT values containing semicolons.

CSF Firewall / Re: Continued CWP support with new CSF fork

« Last post by DragoCom on December 19, 2025, 02:55:41 AM »

A developer named Aetherinox has forked CSF, and is actively supporting it, along with updates for CWP.

Please see the following KB, if you would like to update to this new fork and version:

https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/aetherinox-csf-firewall-update-to-v15-09/

If you can, please support him also.

Everything went fine up to the last csf -v:

This version/fork also works on cPanel also, but don't tell anyone.

Yea, that's a fix in 15.09

Developer though the wording 'Invalid' didn't sound right.

Same thing, I might suggest changing it to Free & Paid.

Feedback is welcome.
You also can reach the developer directly via his discord channel.

But if you notice, on the left side that some users complained was empty has been fixed also.
