I dont know what to say, except this is not working for alma8.

There are probably 20 of these conflicts

right now I am in a situation where I dont have a working database. Cant even login to centos cwp.

The install seemed to go smoothly but got a bunch of character set errors. Total 66 MB/s | 155 MB 00:02 Running transaction check Transaction check succeeded. Running transaction test The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful transaction. You can remove cached packages by executing 'yum clean packages'.

So on my new install alma8 I did exactly as you said. No errors at any point. But when I checked the version it still said 10.3. I looked on my cwp panel and noticed that the php version was 5.3. Why is cwp still installing 5.3? Anyway, I am upgrading php to 8.1 at this time and will try it again. But I dont have great expectations. mysql -V mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.39-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 5.1
