Hello,

We have a cPanel&WHM version 122.0.20, installed on Alma Linux 8 platform.
Last days, We received emails

Detected 1 service that is running outdated executables: httpd.service You must take one of the following actions to ensure the system is up-to-date:
•    Restart the listed service using “systemctl restart httpd.service”; then click “Scan Again” to check non-service processes.
•    Reboot the server.

In this email, there is always service  httpd.service ....

Why do we receive such emails frequently and always related to service httpd?

Best regards,
Elizabeta

  /usr/bin/needs-restarting

  on the server that there is no output showing any services needing the be restarted?

  Thanks for the additional details.  All but one of those are just notifications letting you know about things on the machine that you may or may not care about.  However, that third option does indicate the entire server needs to be rebooted in order for the updates to be applied.
