Hello,

I have CentOS 7, cPanel version 110.0.36, no CloudLinux.

I run this command

/scripts/elevate-cpanel --check

And get error

[ERROR] *** Elevation Blocker detected: ***
  This installation of cPanel (11.110.0.36) does not appear to be up to date.
  Please upgrade cPanel to 11.110.0.81.

Then i run upcp to update cPanel and i was forced to upgrade to version '11.132.0.16'.

After that, i get error

W NOTE: A system upgrade was not possible due to the following blockers:
W [FATAL] - Newer releases of cPanel & WHM are not compatible with your operating system. Upgrade your OS, or use the Update Preferences screen to select a Long-Term Support release for use with your OS. cPanel & WHM 11.118.0.61 supports AlmaLinux 8/9, CloudLinux® 8/9, Rocky Linux™ 8/9, Ubuntu 20/22 only. Please see our OS End of Life policy for more information.

So how can i upgrade to version 11.110.0.81.

Please help me.

Thank you.

  Edit file /etc/cpupdate.conf
  and change the line with CPANEL to
  CPANEL=110

  then run 
  /scripts/upcp
