Cloudlinux LVE Manager Showing ‘unable to complete setting up nodejs’ Error

Symptoms

When visiting WHM > Server Configuration > Cloudlinux LVE Manager > Dashboard you will see Node.JS listed as "Unconfigured" and you will also get the error "Unable to complete setting up Node.JS" when trying to reconfigure. 

Description 

This is usually caused by having the incorrect mod_passenger package installed on the server. The package that needs to be installed on the server is this: 

ea-apache24-mod-alt-passenger

But the package currently installed is this: 

ea-ruby24-mod_passenger

Downloading the log files from the same interface you should see this line appearing somewhere in the logs: 

Error: ea-apache24-mod-alt-passenger conflicts with 1:ea-ruby24-mod_passenger-5.3.7-3.el7.cloudlinux.1.x86_64

Workaround

Trying to install ea-apache24-mod-alt-passenger will fail unless first these packages are removed from the server: 

ruby24-mod_passenger
ruby24-libuv
ruby24-ruby-wrapper

After removing these packages, the correct package can be installed by running this command: 

yum install -y ea-apache24-mod-alt-passenger

After the installation is complete, the respective Node.JS section in the WHM > Server Configuration > Cloudlinux LVE Manager > Dashboard interface needs to be refreshed and then the error should disappear. Please refer to this link for instruction on how to install Node.JS Selector on Cloudlinux:
