WP Toolkit - ERROR: Failed to install wp-toolkit-cpanel, see installation log

Symptoms

Attempting to install Toolkit on CloudLinux presents the following error messages.

Cause

During the review of this problem, we found that if the CageFS minimum UID is lower than 1000, the toolkit system user is automatically enabled in CageFS during installation.

CONFIG_TEXT: wp-toolkit:x:992:986::/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/wp-toolkit/var:/bin/false

Configuring the minimum UID of CageFS to be lower than 1000 on CloudLinux isn't recommended because it enables CageFS for other system users, which can cause additional issues. However, if you've already made this customization, please continue using it. Please follow the workaround below to ensure the Toolkit functions correctly after installing it.

Resolution

1. Disable this user from CageFS.

   # cagefsctl --disable wp-toolkit

2. Reinstall the toolkit package to ensure no additional errors are occurring.

   # yum reinstall wp-toolkit-cpanel
