    seems user in "stream account transfer" is username and with "restorepkg" is root. Solve this, first transfer (server load is much lower), then dump db with root permissions. Account transfer needs an option to allow restore with root or any other mechanism or option that allows transferring the db without issues.

    Hi, Please note that if you have a large server, you may run into much more than a brick wall when going over from 10.3 to 8.0

    @bitpt - if you're seeing issues with the Transfer Tool, could we get access to a server experiencing that problem so we can check that out?

    When you create the support ticket with our team we'd need access to both the Source and Destination so we can check the migration details.

    This is a shame. I buy a new server that is different than others due AlmaLinux 8 and cPanel 104 has not MariaDB on the selector like others, it installs mysql 8 by default. MySQL 8 is somekind of crap, comparing to MariaDB 10.3 that is better in all aspects. I don't know why cPanel adopts that decision, maybe commercial topics.

    cPanel should show that pink box on the installation process!! Our usual experience tell us that we can change the db engine after install.... but that's not the case.

    We use the usual installation command we found on Installation | cPanel & WHM Documentation to install a new cPanel server for migration. We run the script as usual, after cPanel installed, we found that there is no way to change the database engine to Mariadb and stuck in MySQL 8.0 Our original server is running Mariadb, and we want to keep everything as smooth as possible. We have to use Mariadb. So what we done? we take down the server from the production rack and reinstall the OS again. And on this guild, no pink warning box Installation | cPanel & WHM Documentation The pink box only show on this customization page:

    There is currently not a supported way to move back to MariaDB from MySQL 8 as that is considered a downgrade.

    We are looking for cPanel to show more noticeable message on the installation process, and require the operator to confirm / select (any interaction) a db engine type for a irreversible installation process.
