SSL / Re: Problem with renewed SSL certificate and Email

« Last post by Starburst on November 27, 2025, 01:05:36 PM »

Let me know if you find the Let's Encrypt IP's.

I tried, and gave up searching for them to whitelist.

SSL / Re: Problem with renewed SSL certificate and Email

Ok, with a lot troubleshooting with ChatGPT, we found the problem is CSF firewall, disable it , renew the Cert. and enable the firewall again.

Have to check where it goes wrong but at leat you can get your sites wunning again...

Found the issue, we block a lot of countries due to attacks, so we needed to add Let's Encrypt ip adresses to the whitelist.

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

« Last post by Starburst on November 27, 2025, 10:34:19 AM »

Doing the ELevate process on a production server scares me a bit, i have never done it (in the past i always have setup a new server with a newer OS every 6-8 years and migrated the sites/emails from one server to the other)

Right now i have been stagnating on Centos7, paying for the extended support, because i'm not sure if i should wait for AL9 or go to AL8 and again in 3-4 years do an other migration...

It's better to setup a new server.
ELevate could leave some ghosts in the system.

AL8 is good with security updates until 2029-05-31

AL9 is active until 2027-05-31, with security updates until 2032-05-31

And AL10, IF CWP version ever gets that version going, is active until 2030-05-31, and security updates until 2035-05-31

https://wiki.almalinux.org/release-notes/

Seems like CWP main problem is they are still trying to support the older obsolete OS'es like CentOS 7 and PHP versions.
That seems to be holding back the needed development for the new OS'es that is needed.

They need to kill CentOS 7 support, it's been long enough past EOL and work on AL9 and AL10.

Other control panels have done this, and some have AL10 versions out or coming out soon.
While CWP is stuck on CentOS 7 and AL8.

[End of rant, I apologize]

Installation / Re: Install issues

Try to use the CWP install script.

That fix is old, and apparently things have changed in their repo for installation.

Apache / Re: Apache automatic shutdown

« Last post by overseer on November 27, 2025, 03:00:31 AM »

If that log you posted has accurate time stamps, the SAN notice comes in just after 3 am, which is expected because that's when the daily cron run happens, which includes AutoSSL renewal attempts (and subsequent graceful restarts).

CWP seems to produce that [ssl-warn] for any SAN you haven't enabled but it is just a warning & wouldn't be causing the restart. I also don't think your access attempts to /usr/local/apache/htdocs/ would do that either. Something is sending a SIGWINCH command to apache which is gracefully restarting as per its design.

I'd check your cron logs and/all other logs to see if you can find what is requesting it.
