cPanel & WHM version 110 will be the last version that supports CentOS 7. Support for version 110 will end June 30, 2024. We encourage you to migrate to a server running AlmaLinux 8, Rocky Linux 8, or CloudLinux™ 8 before June 30, 2024. For more information, read our cPanel Deprecation Plan documentation.

Click the “Elevate to AlmaLinux 8” button below to read about a script you can use to upgrade cPanel & WHM installations on CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 8.

Only system administrators (root and root-level resellers) see this message.

I am wondering if any of you already did this move????? I want to hear about this problem????

Thanks

I've moved from CentOs 7 to AlmaLinux 8 at start of this year and since all is ok. There's no problem for me.

    I love this conversation but I posted something similar back in 2017 and it was removed because this type of post was against policy?!

     

    this type of post was against policy?!

    As long as you do not directly (or indirectly nudge nudge) recommend/mention/point-to outside server providers and just talk about "servers" in general it's all good. These forums are a closed shop in that regards (meaning CIC and that's it).

    I recently changed servers after the end of support for Centos 7.

    New configuration: AlmaLinux 8.8 and MariaDB 10.6.

    Everything works perfectly.

     

    Regards.

    Unfortunately I do not have the technical details of the change, since this was a service that I contracted with my hosting provider.

    I imagine that via cpanel & whm, it is possible to review these URLs that may support or provide some guide.

     

     

    Regards

    In my case it was like this, which left me pleasantly surprised, I think it was a plus and knowledge of the engineers who did the work, the only adjustments I made were:

    1) enable my IP address in the firewall to enter cPanel services and via ssh.
    2) copy the crontrab at the linux level
    3) make an adjustment at the Apache level for the Worker number that my community supports, with the default value 150, it doesn't work, I must adjust it to 1000.

    In summary, this was the level of changes I made post migration of the configuration I contracted.

    My host saying, they can migrate my server to Ubuntu 20.04...

    My question is which one is better Ubuntu 20.04 OR AlmaLinux 8????

    Any recommendation?

    Are you using WHM/CPanel?  Ubuntu 20.04 has the longer time left on its support cycle (early 2025) , however, WHM/CPanel on Ubuntu is still fairly new and it feels like the WHM crew is scrambling a little bit to cover this transition.  Alma was supported by WHM nearly right out of the box and is a drop in replacement for Cent, however, Alma 8 Active support ends in May 2024. 

    If Alma 9 is an option, support there lasts until May 2027.

    I did the move and upgraded to alma Linux according to instructions of Cpanel elevate project and it went smooth, just make sure to follow instructions carefully 

     

    Thank you so much....

    To add, you need some basic knowledge of:

    1- directory/files navigation in linux

    2- editing files using vim

    3- make sure that you resolved all upgrade blockers when you run upgrade testing script before beginning the upgrade

    4- for the most security use jetbackup software to backup everything, files, cpanel setting, ....etc
