Upgrade cURL

leemonster
I have exhausted every option and cannot find an answer. I am installing an application that calls for cURL 7.7.* and my version is currently 7.29.0. Now, I have tried doing this from the command line and it worked flawlessly. Only issue is that it corrupted my WHM / cPanel. So, I reloaded the OS and have been digging through the WHM interface, documentation, web searches and I cannot find anything that leads me to the correct path of upgrading cURL. So, I simply would like too find a way of upgrading cURL without corrupting WHM / cPanel.

    Hey there! Can you let me know what issues you ran into with cPanel when you updated curl? In general, there can be conflicts when trying to update an individual package that isn't supported by the OS, as 7.29 is the latest I see available on CentOS 7. Even CentOS 8 is only showing 7.61 when I checked a machine just now.

    Well, the build went great. No issues, but when i rebooted and went to get into WHM it was gone. As was cPanel. They must have gotten corrupted during the upgrade. I was following a tutorial I found that made it seem very easy. NOT!

    I have a dev machine at my house that I upgraded, but it does not have cPanel / WHM on it. So, I just naturally thought it would work with all the software together. I just checked my dev server and it is centos 7 with cURL 7.76.0. So that build did work. But without cPanel / WHM. The app I am installing is connect by KodeMint.

    "Gone" is certainly interesting. If you do that work again and the same thing happens, can you check /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log to see if there are any additional details listed there?

    I am going to try it again, but this time I am going to reload centos 7, upgrade cURL and then load cPanel / WHM and see what happens.
