Question

How can I ensure all EasyApache 4 packages are installed from the correct repository on RHEL based systems?

Answer

After installing or removing an EasyApache 4 repository, such as CloudLinux or Imunify360, you may need to replace some packages with those from the correct repositories.

Note: The repository in /etc/yum.repos.d/EA4.repo should remain enabled even when CloudLinux or Imunify360 is installed.

1. Access the server's command line as the 'root' user via SSH or "Terminal" in WHM.
2. Enable or disable the repos in /etc/yum.repos.d/ that you do not intend to use by changing the enabled variable. 1 is enabled, and 0 is disabled.
3. Use the distro-sync option of yum/dnf to replace the packages with those from the correct repositories.

   • CentOS 7 CloudLinux 6/7

     # yum distro-sync ea-*

   • CloudLinux 8/9, AlmaLinux 8/9, Rocky Linux 8/9

     # dnf distro-sync ea-*

4. Review the output to ensure the packages will be uninstalled from the incorrect repos and installed from the correct repo.
5. Enter "y" to proceed if everything looks correct.
