CSF Firewall / Re: CSF Auto Update Re-Enabled v14.24 and v15.00
« on: September 10, 2025, 11:44:14 PM »
Config.pm lists a Backup server.
In downloadservers, it doesn't matter what 2 servers are used.

CentOS-WebPanel Bugs / Re: yum/rpm updates not getting updated
« on: September 10, 2025, 06:44:31 PM »
Agreed, be careful, because you are going to have to reduce the size of another partition to make free space to expand /boot.
/boot should be about 1024MB
So should /boot/efi, if your server has that enabled.
If you used Automatic partitioning, you should have been OK.
Most images I've seen have had enough space as well.

PHP / 0.9.8.1215
« on: September 10, 2025, 07:55:22 AM »
The update today for 0.9.8.1215 has the PHP updates to current version, as of 2025-09-10
With the exception of 8.4.x, which has to be done manually, and carefully due to retired packages of some add-ons.
PHP 8.3 jumps from 8.3.21 directly to the latest 8.3.25.

CentOS-WebPanel Bugs / Re: yum/rpm updates not getting updated
« on: September 09, 2025, 08:55:38 PM »On a production server, I usually only keep 2-3 kernels (usually 2 -- I am stingy).
I use to keep 3, but depending on the size of /boot, 3-4 seems to be the sweet spot.
(At least that's what she said)...

Just FOLLOW that guide Step By Step, and do NOT deviate from it, and you will be fine.
Nothing else needs to be done.
If you start deviating from it, then all hell will break loose, and you will corrupt your server.
That being said, you should always make a snapshot/backup of your server BEFORE any upgrades.

The /boot is usually filled with too many Kernel versions.
Simple way to clean that partition up is with:
The above example will limit it to the current and 4 past kernels.

EL8 is in it's Security Only update phase.
When running update under EL8 and after should be:
In other words, if there is no security fix to a package, then you won't see any updates.
EL8 covers RHEL 8, AlmaLinux 8, Rocky 8, any EL8 clone.
One reason why we've only brought EL9 servers online for awhile, even with the small amount of CWP bugs.
Unfortunately one of them is resource control. They changed how it worked from under EL7/EL8.
But for out clients, that's not a big deal.
Neither is anything under PHP 7.4

« on: September 08, 2025, 09:45:36 AM »
OK, that's good.
Make sure to do a snapshot, before the below, to be safe.
Then it's just Enabling:
Security -> Cgroups Resource Limits
File Management -> Disk Quota Setup
Then make sure under Packages, you have the limits storage limits set, and then click on Update Quota.
Under AL8, you should be all set now to control the user resources used.

@Sandeep, @josemnunez @Igor S.,
I don't like to post stuff like this, BUT...
Thanks guys! Lost a 5 server deal because CWP won't update to the current PHP 8.3.25 version...

You can update to PHP 8.4.x manually, but the problem is some modules have been retired by their creators, like IMAP.
So PHP 8.4 is running into their own support problems right now.

The IMAP extension was moved out of PHP core because the underlying c-client library it relied on was no longer being maintained

CSF Firewall / Re: Configserver down?
« on: September 06, 2025, 10:56:38 PM »CSF is gone for good as of Aug 31st, now what??? Why didn't CWP address this in the fresh installs instead of leaving everyone not working. That is VERY unprofessional!!!
https://configserver.com/announcement/
This is/was not CWP's fault...
They Do Not control 3rd party companies, ConfigServer shocked everyone when they posted their 30 day notice.
Of course it's not their fault. That said, the fact that CWP didn't give a heads up about the fact that their product would stop working is unprofessional. So, I agree with DragoCon.
Even if they didn't have an immediate solution, they could have added a warning message to the CWP Dashboard about the impending change to CSF. That would have let people like me (who rarely visit these support forums or follow news about this stuff) the chance to know something might break before it broke.
Trust me, lots of people are grateful that there are people like you who do provide free support. But that doesn't change the fact that CWP should be more proactive about this stuff.
1. CWP continued to work, so I have no idea what the frak you are talking about with that...
2. The author of CSF didn't put it into the open source arena until 2 days before the end of the month.
Then it took me a few days how to figure out how to re-enable csf -u, so it didn't error.
That just didn't happen to CWP, it also happened to cPanel and Stand-Alone users of CSF.
There is no replacement for CSF, that's the problem.
I saw Imunify 360 try to push ads they that they are a replacement, but they are not. They are just like ClamAV.
Closest replacement would be fail2ban and Nftables, but then still will be missing part of what CSF offers.
Then comes the whole problem that Linux is moving away from IPtables for the for mentioned Nftables in EL10.
But Nftables does have a IPtables compatibility mode.
Which mean some one now has to take the banner and either crate something like CSF from scratch or overhaul CSF completely to work with Nftables in native mode.
CSF was mostly written in Perl, which no one codes in anymore, it's mostly all in PHP now a days.
Thankfully this might happen before the EOL of EL9.
Otherwise, it's just not CWP in trouble, it's also cPanel and others.
Don't get me wrong CWP seems to be dropping the ball lately, I'm not sure what's going on, even from a partner aspect.
@overseer and I try to do the most we can, with @cyberspace helping also.

Thanks for the laugh. Though my side hurts now...
I'm trying to get them to update the PHP versions. Care more about that than a changelog.

Mod_Security / Re: OWASP CRS v4.15.0 Just Release
« on: September 04, 2025, 08:31:39 PM »QuoteMod_Security should not overwrite anything, it only does that when you change a setting like ModSec Rules Profile or Rules ENgine.
It is not mod_security
I mentioned before, it is the CWP Security Daemon that is checking the integrity of the files and overwrites known system files that have unknown edits.
My host (InMotion Hosting) confirmed that to me. Maybe it's their custom security module. I don't know.
The only thing I know is that on a regular basis, my mod_security.conf file would get overwritten with the default "Include:" path creating a chaos on my websites.
I hope this helps.
Yea, CWP doesn't do that... It doesn't even have a 'security daemon'. Only thing CWP does automatically is SSL generation/renewals, and update to the control panel itself.
So the info from InMotion is inaccurate, or is their security module, that I would disable, if it causing problems.
Otherwise we would be having problem with all of our servers. And we are not, and others are not reporting that problem either.
