CentOS 7 - Virtualmin Recheck Configuration Issue - EOL

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version CentOS 7.9

Virtualmin version 7.2 Pro
Webserver version Apache version 2.4.6
Related packages SUGGESTED

I still have one CentOS 7 system where some domains still have not been moved. It seems that we had an electrical blip this morning. When this system came back up, Virtualmin did a system check. It failed with:

" The Virtualmin repository is configured correctly

The Virtualmin repositories currently configured on your system is outdated. Please check out this tutorial for upgrading your repos

The feature Administration user cannot be disabled, as it is used by the following virtual servers"

The tutorial link returns a 404.

Is there a way to edit the file which rechecks the config to tell it not to check the repositories? And where it is.

Alternatively, should I do something about the existing repositories?

Yup, I should have had this done already. :frowning:

My issue is the backup function does not get the complete information nor does it do a full backup of a virtualmin domain. No web files and a lot of other things.

Thanks for any help!

I moved all the /etc/yum.repos.d to a backup folder leaving only the virtualmin.repo. Rechecking virtualmin config gave a success notice except the virtualmin repo is said to be outdated. However, dashboard is mostly broken. When I try to do a backup, I’m not getting mail users nor apache config nor website files. Moving is going to be a huge pain unless someone has an idea.

Surprisingly, it seems that I can see a lot when viewing a domain in Virtualmin, but some things are missing. For instance I cannot see which PHP version is in use… no php options.

I can see the Virtualmin version as nothing at the top of the dashboard is displayed. At the moment only maria db is showing as a running service. I’ll try to find a bit more info on this and add the apache version.

Solved… I think.

So, the /etc/webmin/virtual-server/config had lost it’s configuration. I did a restore from yesterday and now so far it seems things are working.

I’ll report back if I find any issues.

Meanwhile, back to moving these last dozen or so domains.

I’ll ask @Ilia to fix the link in that help text.

Thank you, Joe! All fixed now!

Hey Joe and Ilia. Yeah, the problem is this is CentOS 7 and the repos are removed… or at least remi, centos base and etc. repos. I was surprised to find the broken config. I have not had that happen on any of my Rocky Linux 8 systems for months or maybe a year now. I don’t know if the broken repos could have caused this. Either way, that system is just about moved now and should have been done before EOL. My bad.
