  quietFinn Thanks for replying, glad it isn't just me, and its happening on multiple cpanel servers. Maybe cPRex can check on this...

  I'm also getting an error during a clean cPanel installation. The installation completes, but cPanel doesn't work. (Almalinux 8 os)

  It looks like the following is the fix:

  dnf module reset perl-DBI perl
  dnf module enable perl:5.26
  dnf update --assumeno
  dnf update

  Let me know if that doesn't do the trick!

  That didnt help for me.

  EDIT:
  Apparently that fix works, "dnf update" works, but those "Modular dependency problems:" lines are still there.

  cPRex your 4 DNF commands did allow me to update perl-DBI; however all the other errors with "stream conflicts" in my original post still exist.

  The same thing happened in that ticket - the nightly update corrected the issue.

  cPanel didn't do a release last night for any version, so it's not something we changed on our side to resolve it.

  Interesting that the nightly update cleared it without any new cPanel release. That makes the timing of the repository metadata or module streams seem pretty important here.

  Since the same issue affected multiple servers and then resolved on its own, it would be useful to know whether the nightly update refreshed the AppStream metadata or changed something on the repository side. That could help explain why the DNF reset commands only partially addressed the errors at first.
