« Last post by cyberspace on February 23, 2026, 10:49:12 PM »My time costs money, and I'm afraid I don't have free time to prove anything.
Anyway, CWP meets my requirements and customization options. If any problems with CWP arise, I’m able to solve them on my own. My CWP servers work with newest php versions and are connected to a custom DNS cluster with live DNS zone updates. It requires technical skills but CWP allows to do it.
If you’ve made the decision to leave CWP, then you’re just wasting your time by posting here. Sad but true.

The usual reply: “Go buy a paid panel then.” Cool. That’s exactly what I did because when clients are paying me, I need reliability and support, not forum drama.
It sound like:
Users pay me to get reliability and support but I don't pay. However I require reliability and support )
or... I missed something.
Just because you don't pay for something, that doesn't mean that you shouldn't get a good product.
You should, at least, expect for some level of quality... And that is not what you get with CWP.
You get radio silence. Nothing changes, no new features... When something doesn't evolve, if gets behind.
Can you provide one thing where CWP have evolved? Can you show it?
There is MANY control panels in the market, both free and paid. and those who grow are the ones that evolve.
CWP is in the oposite end, is going downhill. That IS the issue.

CentOS 9 Problems / Re: mysql update
« Last post by cyberspace on February 23, 2026, 09:08:16 AM »If you followed all instructions and there were no errors during the upgrade then MySQL should be updared. Where do you see MySQL 10.5 ?
Can you connect to the server over SSH, run one by one:

Because haters are gonna hate.
You look at the post history, and that's all they have posted since post 1.
Bashing CWP in one way or another, and all saying it's a 'dead project'.
The irony on how the OP predict what is gonna happen...
The issue is always the others...
