Centmin Mod 124.00stable & 130.00beta01 Releases

Centmin Mod has new stable and beta version branch released now. The documentation is lagging behind but thought I'd get them out now. This thread will be updated with more info as the week goes by.

---

As of May 8th, 2022, Centmin Mod versions are undergoing a transition version branch wise:

1. The previous 123.08stable is now moving to 124.00stable. 124.00stable is essentially based on the well-tested 123.09beta01 branch. All development and changes made in 123.09beta01 are now in 124.00stable.
2. Previous 123.09beta01 code is now in 124.00stable
3. A new 130.00beta01 branch has started and this is also based on the 123.09beta01 branch but with additional development and code to eventually support EL8+ operating systems like CentOS 8, Alma Linux 8 and Rocky Linux 8. This branch will take over from 123.09beta01 as the development beta branch. EL8+ operating system support isn't fully complete as at May 8th, 2022. So installation on CentOS 7.x is recommended. However, as of November 1, 2023 - Centmin Mod 130.00beta01 now has public beta out for testing for EL8+ support i.e. AlmaLinux or Rocky Linux https://community.centminmod.com/th...almalinux-8-rocky-linux-8-beta-testing.24227/

How To Update from 123.09beta01 to 124.00stable

To update from Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 to 124.00stable run these commands which:

1. First updates cmupdate tool to support 124.00stable and 130.00beta01 updating.
2. Then runs cmupdate update-stable command to switch to 124.00stable
3. cmdir is the command shortcut equivalent of
   Code (Text):

   cd /usr/local/src/centminmod

4. centmin is command shortcut equivalent of running centmin.sh from /usr/local/src/centminmod directory.

Code (Text):

cmupdate
cmupdate update-stable
cmdir
centmin

example for output for cmupdate update-stable command which does the actual switching to 124.00stable branch.

Code (Text):

cmupdate update-stable
No local changes to save
Already up-to-date.

To run centmin.sh again, you need to change into directory: /usr/local/src/centminmod
cd /usr/local/src/centminmod

As 124.00stable and 123.09beta01 are essentially the same code right now, there are no real changes other than version number if you're already using 123.09beta01.

To run centmin.sh again, you need to change into directory: /usr/local/src/centminmod
cd /usr/local/src/centminmod

As 130.00beta01 and 123.09beta01 are essentially the same code right now, there are no real changes other than version numbers for Centmin Mod itself and for wget if you're already using 123.09beta01. For wget custom version installed by Centmin Mod, 130.00beta01 updated wget from 1.20.3 to 1.21.2 so when you run centmin command (centmin.sh) for the first time it will auto update wget to 1.21.2 version.

When you run centmin (centmin.sh) command right after cmupdate update-beta run will give

Code (Text):

centmin
/usr/local/src/centminmod /usr/local/src/centminmod

update wget 1.21.2 & pcre 8.45 version... one time task

and you'd end up with wget 1.21.2 installed at /usr/local/bin/wget beside system default wget at /usr/bin/wget - which for CentOS 7 is wget 1.14.

Code (Text):

wget --version

How To Update From 123.08stable to 124.00stable/130.00beta01

Centmin Mod 123.08stable was created before the convenient cmupdate command was added to 123.09beta01 and newer versions. As such you'd need to update the old fashion way via git command lines. Once, you have updated to 124.00stable or 130.00beta01, you will be able to use cmupdate command for future updates.

You will do a fresh Centmin Mod code replacement by backing up and moving /usr/local/src/centminmod using below commands.

Replace branchname variable below with branch you want either 124.00stable or 130.00beta01. The cp copy commands backup the key files/vhost/ssl etc first as ALOT of changes have been made from 123.08stable's creation.

Code (Text):

branchname=124.00stable
cp -a /etc/my.cnf /etc/my.cnf-old
cp -a /usr/local/lib/php.ini /usr/local/lib/php.ini-old
cp -a /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf-old
cp -a /etc/centminmod /etc/centminmod-old
cp -a /usr/local/nginx/conf /usr/local/nginx/conf-old
cd /usr/local/src
mv centminmod centminmod-old
git clone -b ${branchname} --depth=1 https://github.com/centminmod/centminmod.git centminmod
cd /usr/local/src/centminmod
./centmin.sh

The last run for centmin.sh syncs any needed changes and will auto update any version numbers for software it sees as needing updating i.e. custom wget version, cache compiler cache version etc.

Then you can compare all the new and old directory and files manually if needed. For sdiff commands if you only want to see differences side by side add the -s flag after sdiff

Code (Text):

sdiff /etc/my.cnf /etc/my.cnf-old
sdiff /usr/local/lib/php.ini /usr/local/lib/php.ini-old
sdiff /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf-old
diff -qr /etc/centminmod /etc/centminmod-old
diff -qr /usr/local/nginx/conf /usr/local/nginx/conf-old
diff -qr /usr/local/src/centminmod /usr/local/src/centminmod-old

example if file differs

Code (Text):

diff -qr /etc/centminmod /etc/centminmod-old
Files /etc/centminmod/email-primary.ini and /etc/centminmod-old/email-primary.ini differ

then use sdiff to see what the actual difference is

sdiff side by side view

Code (Text):

sdiff /etc/centminmod/email-primary.ini /etc/centminmod-old/email-primary.ini

sdiff side by side view only differences flag -s

Code (Text):

sdiff -s /etc/centminmod/email-primary.ini /etc/centminmod-old/email-primary.ini

Code (Text):

sdiff /etc/centminmod/email-primary.ini /etc/centminmod-old/email-primary.ini
3                                                             | 1

Again, once, you have updated to 124.00stable or 130.00beta01, you will be able to use cmupdate command for future updates.
