EasyApache 4 not resolving conflict correctly

gareth.star
Hi. I currently have a server that was provisioned with EasyApache 4 to use Apache 2.4 prefork. I have decided I would like to use the event MPM instead of prefork. I've selected "ea-apache24-mod_mpm_event". In doing so, I am told there will be a conflict with "ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork" and "ea-apache24-mod_cgi" which will be uninstalled and "ea-apache24-mod_cgid" will also be installed. 38431 After selecting Yes, "ea-apache24-mod_mpm_event" is marked as Install, and "ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork" is marked as Uninstall. 38471 Additionally after selecting Yes, "ea-apache24-mod_cgid" is marked as Install, and "ea-apache24-mod_cgi" is marked as Uninstall. 38481 When I finally get to the Review step, I am told everything conflicts with each other and nothing will be installed or uninstalled. 38491 I'm sure uninstalling prefork + cgi first would probably allow me to provision with event + cgid, however that would mean a longer downtime to my site than it would if EasyApache took care of everything at once. I have to minimize downtime. Did I do something incorrectly?

    Hi, Changing MPMs in EA4 is a little tricky right now. The UI's don't fully resolve dependencies and conflicts in a recursive level. That's something we're working to fix now, but it looks like that will be happening in v60. Right now, easiest way to change these MPMs is to go into the CLI, and use Yum Shell to fix this. It would look something like:
    root@11 [~]# yum shell Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, tsflags, universal-hooks > install ea-apache24-mod_mpm_event > remove ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork > run --> Running transaction check ---> Package ea-apache24-mod_mpm_event.x86_64 0:2.4.20-3.1 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: ea-apache24-mod_cgid for package: ea-apache24-mod_mpm_event-2.4.20-3.1.x86_64 ---> Package ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork.x86_64 0:2.4.20-3.1 will be erased --> Processing Dependency: ea-apache24-mpm = forked for package: ea-apache24-mod_cgi-2.4.20-3.1.x86_64 --> Running transaction check ---> Package ea-apache24-mod_cgi.x86_64 0:2.4.20-3.1 will be erased ---> Package ea-apache24-mod_cgid.x86_64 0:2.4.20-3.1 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution ================================================================================================================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================================================================================================= Installing: ea-apache24-mod_mpm_event x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 EA4 46 k Removing: ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 @EA4 31 k Installing for dependencies: ea-apache24-mod_cgid x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 EA4 36 k Removing for dependencies: ea-apache24-mod_cgi x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 @EA4 27 k Transaction Summary ================================================================================================================================================================= Install 1 Package (+1 Dependent package) Remove 1 Package (+1 Dependent package) Total download size: 81 k Is this ok [y/d/N]:
    I hope this helps!

    I just gave it a try and saw:
    Installing: ea-apache24-mod_mpm_event x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 EA4 46 k Removing: ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 @EA4 31 k Installing for dependencies: ea-apache24-mod_cgid x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 EA4 36 k Removing for dependencies: ea-apache24-mod_cgi x86_64 2.4.20-3.1 @EA4 27 k ea-php70-php x86_64 7.0.7-1.3 @EA4 4.1 M
    I definitely don't want to be remove PHP 7. Is that unavoidable at this point? Should I be waiting on v60?

    That package isn't specifically PHP7, that's the PHP DSO module for PHP 7. DSO is a forked model only, and requires prefork to run. Since you're removing prefork, DSO can't be there, so it's being removed. It looks right :D

    It worked! You're my hero! (for today ;)) A follow-up question. When a new EasyApache version gets released, what will happen to this change? I'm assuming v60 will handle it, but what about v58?

    Awesome! I'm glad that worked out. With your question, I'm not sure I follow correctly. I'm going to answer with what I think you're asking, but please let me know if I'm off my rocker :P. In v58, yes, this will be a bit painful. We've gotten the frontend working properly with mock data, but we're working on the backend side of this change now. I'm hoping that we'll be able to have it backported into a v58.1 release, but that's not 100% set in stone right now. As for EA releases themselves, those won't affect your current settings and setup. The packages won't switch out or anything, when there's a new update, those packages will auto-update via yum, and you won't have to do anything with them. I hope this helps!

    Yep, you answered everything I asked. Thanks a million, Jacob! :D

    Jacob: Similar problem here. Trying to go from the pre-fork to the worker mpm. Get the following conflicts: 38631 Then attempting to resolve via yum:
    yum shell remove ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork remove ea-apache24-mod_cgi install ea-apache24-mod_mpm_worker install ea-apache24-mod_cgid run
    Yields the following which just returns me into the yum shell but does not ask permission to install or remove anything... > remove ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork > remove ea-apache24-mod_cgi > install ea-apache24-mod_mpm_worker > install ea-apache24-mod_cgid > run --> Running transaction check ---> Package ea-apache24.x86_64 0:2.4.20-4.5.1.cpanel will be erased --> Processing Dependency:

    Howdy! Can you do a 'yum clean all', then via yum shell:
    yum shell remove ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork install ea-apache24-mod_mpm_worker run
    The dependencies should be picked up just by using those two packages. Let me know how it goes!

    That worked to install/remove the packages and successfully switched Apache to worker. However, when I go through Apache 4 to activate specific PHP modules and progress through to the review screen, i get stuck on the 'Preparing selected packages for review.' and it never moves on (over 30min now...). Nothing has been logged to cpanel/logs/error_log

    I have opened a ticket on this.

    Thanks! That page can take a minute or two (or longer on busier systems) to complete, but I haven't seen it freeze like that. It's possible a timeout occurred somewhere that we may need to account for. Thanks again for letting us check it out!

    The package after about 22 min finally came back with the same conflicts mentioned in the Forum thread- mainly that the prefork MPM was conflicting with the worker MPM. This is despite having manually removed the prefork mpm via Yum. In fact, when I go back into the Yum shell and again try: [root@cpanel ~]# yum shell Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, post-transaction-actions, tsflags, universal-hooks > remove ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork No Match for argument: ea-apache24-mod_mpm_prefork > Apache4 seems to be picking up modules that Yum doesn't see... Support has already started on the ticket. Really impressive service guys!

    Update just to let anyone else having the same problem know: If trying to install php 7 with the apache mpm-worker module. Don't select the 'ea-php-70=php' module. It is the DSO module for PHP (and thusly unnecessary, as PHP requests should be sufficiently served by SuPHP). The current Easy Apache 4 will not flag it as having a dependency on the apache pre-fork module so it just tells you that the prefork and worker conflict even though you are not trying to use the pre-fork. Thanks to support and their quick help on figuring this out!
