Hey there! If you manually run "/scripts/sysup" what output do you receive? 0 -
I have the same problem: * 2023-06-10 11:26:52 [INFO] Checking EasyApache profile compatibility with AlmaLinux 8. * 2023-06-10 11:26:52 [INFO] Running: /usr/local/bin/ea_current_to_profile --target-os=AlmaLinux_8 --output=/tmp/_5EU_2wxrc/ea_profile.json * 2023-06-10 11:26:53 [WARN] Unknown error while checking blockers: Unable to backup EA4 profile.

When I run /scripts/sysup I got:info [sysup] ea4: repo already installed checkyum version 22.3 (excludes: bind-chroot) All Needed Packages are already installed.
Any ideas? I already did a manual backup of EA profile, is there any chance to avoid this check in the elevate script?0 -
Does this command work for you? /usr/local/bin/ea_current_to_profile --target-os=AlmaLinux_8 0 -

I have CentOS 7 installed on my server.0 -
Yep, I'm able to reproduce the same error, and the json file that is generated has error: [root@server ~]# cat /etc/cpanel/ea4/profiles/pkg-manifest.json | jq parse error: Expected another array element at line 7617, column 7
Sounds like you might need to open a ticket with cPanel to look into this. Sure you can manually fix the json errors, but the script will just regenerate that file. In my case, the error is an extra comma at the end of a list:"ea4-legacy", "yum-plugin-universal-hooks", "ea-php82-php-sourceguardian", <---- that comma ],0 -

Can you post the ticket number here so I can follow along? 0 -

Hi, is there a fix already ? 0 -
@WebDomain.com - the user was advised to contact CloudLinux about the issues they were seeing with the packages. 0 -

Thanks everyone for the support! Vanessa was right, today I review my /etc/cpanel/ea4/profiles/pkg-manifest.json file and needed to delete an extra comma in EA4-production before CentOS_9:"ea4-experimental", "ea4-legacy", "yum-plugin-universal-hooks", "ea-php82-php-sourceguardian", <---- that comma ], "CentOS_9" : [
Once edited with vim I run again the elevate-cpanel script and EA4 profile was backed up succesfully:* 2023-06-14 00:25:13 [INFO] Checking EasyApache profile compatibility with AlmaLinux 8. * 2023-06-14 00:25:13 [INFO] Running: /usr/local/bin/ea_current_to_profile --target-os=AlmaLinux_8 --output=/tmp/ft_QmVOwA3/ea_profile.json * 2023-06-14 00:25:14 [INFO] Backed up EA4 profile to /tmp/ft_QmVOwA3/ea_profile.json0 -
Thanks for following up - I assumed that file would be regenerated when re-running but glad you were able to manually edit it and proceed :) 0
