CSF Firewall / Re: CSF Auto Update Re-Enabled v14.24 and v15.00
« on: September 04, 2025, 06:06:34 PM »
I'm not sure what CWP plans are, CSF still lives as open source.
We had an international mirror network already setup for ELRepo, so it was semi-easy for us to add ConfigServer to offer auto updates.
v15.00 is the first release under open source, and removes the closed companies 2 download servers.
This article will advise you how to re-enable auto updates:
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/csf-firewall-error-oops-unable-to-download-no-host-option-provided/
You can choose 2 download servers from our mirror list at:

CSF Firewall / Re: Configserver down?
« on: September 04, 2025, 06:00:03 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.
I made a post when that first was posted here.
dl.starburst.help has a mirror of their archive, as well as their new open source.
We also have copies of all their FAQ's in our public knowledge base.

CSF Firewall / Re: Configserver down?
« on: September 04, 2025, 05:56:40 PM »
As @overser mentioned, since ConfigServer closed there business & went open source, auto updates no longer work.
We setup this on our mirror network so auto updates can work again, please see:
https://starburst.help/control-web-panel-cwp/control-web-panel-cwp-admin-tutorials/csf-firewall-error-oops-unable-to-download-no-host-option-provided/
A list of servers you can use, CSF allows 2, can be found at:
https://starburstservices.com/downloads/mirrors-list/
Under Repository ConfigServer, the Mirror URL is what you would use in the config article above.
This is open to all, including other control panel users, so it will work with cPanel, CyberPanel, stand-alone, etc.

MySQL / Re: Danger: MySQL root password - BIG SECURITY ISSUE
« on: September 03, 2025, 07:00:53 PM »
That almost looks like MariaDB was installed before CWP.
Which will work, but then CWP skips the MariaDB configuration, and just creates it's needed databases.
I have NEVER gotten that message on any CWP installation I've done back on AlmaLinux 8 or AlmaLinux 9.

Addons / Re: Redis server upgrade
« on: September 03, 2025, 12:46:43 PM »
Make a complete backup so you can do a restore.
These AI's search bots just post when you find in online guides, and don't take different factors into count.
I've seen more servers corrupted and have to be wiped due to people using these AI's bots...
But hey more money for real SysAdmins, a typical onsite service call is over $300 just to start, and $150/hour after.
Like how something is integrated from source in the background, and can corrupt a whole installation.
It's always best to try anything on a test setup, and then if it works, you will know how to do it on production servers.
But then you still want snapshots/backups.

Mod_Security / Re: OWASP CRS v4.15.0 Just Release
« on: September 03, 2025, 12:38:16 PM »
Mod_Security should not overwrite anything, it only does that when you change a setting like ModSec Rules Profile or Rules ENgine.
When using the new OWASP CRS database, you can't really use the GUI anymore.
But once you have everything setup, it won't change.
There are articles on how to update your ModSecurity first before updating to the latest OWASP CRS ruleset.
These can be found at:

I think it might be the actual owners page, but since they list the other Github, it is better to be safe.

Updates / Re: ConfigServer replacement?
« on: September 02, 2025, 10:06:35 PM »
CSF is NOT gone. It has become open source.
The UK company ConfigServer is the only thing gone, which is sad.
And I'm almost done getting auto updates working again via our mirror network.

CentOS 9 Problems / Re: EL9 recent update casusing boot issue
« on: September 01, 2025, 10:29:11 PM »
CWP has Nothing to do with the boot sequence.
That is an OS related issue, and not surprising with a beta OS.
If you switch to a stable OS like AlmaLinux, and get off CentOS Stream you will have less problems.
As @overseer mentioned, CWP is CWP, whether it's on AlmaLinux 8 or 9. There is no difference.

Mod_Security / Re: OWASP CRS v4.15.0 Just Release
« on: September 01, 2025, 10:23:03 PM »
The main conf file.
Usually - /usr/local/apache/conf.d/mod_security.conf
This will have the .conf that contains all the paths - /usr/local/apache/modsecurity-rules/modsec.conf
But the .conf can be called anything.
In that .conf file it will have the Includes, below is just an Example.
Include /usr/local/apache/modsecurity-rules/custom-rules/startup/*.conf
Include /usr/local/apache/modsecurity-rules/owasp-crs/coreruleset-1.23.4/crs-setup.conf
Include /usr/local/apache/modsecurity-rules/custom-rules/before/*.conf
Include /usr/local/apache/modsecurity-rules/owasp-crs/coreruleset-1.23.4/rules/*.conf
Include /usr/local/apache/modsecurity-rules/custom-rules/after/*.conf
