Fresh install mesxes up already

(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Yum updates won't even work in cwp pro fresh install. I have re-installed almalinux 8 and cwp 8 times now and the same thing EVERY time.

They really need to fix their installer... is it erroring on a mysql/MariaDB package?

I tried reading that thread but it seems to be all over the place with suggestions. Has there been a step by step putogether to fi this issue as of yet that I can follow?

You could follow Wonder as he was following the AlphaGNU MariaDB upgrade guide. The only difference is he was having to disable the CWP repo before continuing with the process:

cp /etc/my.cnf /etc/my.cnf.bak
systemctl stop mariadb mysql mysqld
systemctl disable mariadb
rpm -e --nodeps $(rpm -qa | grep -i mariadb)
rpm -e --nodeps mysql-common mysql-libs mysql-devel
rpm --nodeps -ev MariaDB-server
rpm -e --nodeps mariadb-server
dnf module disable mariadb -y
yum clean all
nano /etc/yum.repos.d/cwp.repo
   Set enabled=0
Save changes, and then:
yum install MariaDB-server MariaDB-client MariaDB-devel MariaDB-shared net-snmp perl-DBD-MySQL -y
Then, very important:
nano /etc/yum.repos.d/cwp.repo
   Set enabled=1
Save changes
dnf --refresh update

Didn't take long for that to go sideways:

But did you follow AlphaGNU's guide (and have a MariaDB.repo in place)?
