Deprecation plan for CentOS 7, CloudLinux 6 and 7, and RHEL 7.
Starting with v112 of cPanel, a blocker will prevent an upgrade or installation of cPanel if your server runs CentOS 7, CloudLinux 6 and 7, and RHEL 7.
You will be presented with the error:
E Blocker found: Newer releases of cPanel & WHM are not compatible with your operating system.

As noted in the cPanel deprecation plan v110, this was the last version to support CentOS 7, CloudLinux 6 and 7, and RHEL. If you would like to use the newer versions of cPanel, we encourage you to migrate to an AlmaLinux OS 8 or Rocky Linux™ 8 server.
Migrate to an AlmaLinux OS 8 or Rocky Linux™ 8
If you are running CentOS 7, you can elevate to AlmaLinux 8. Otherwise, it would be best to use the transfer tool to migrate to a new server.
