    you get that where ? on first run of centmin.sh menu ?

    Never used Alibaba Cloud, but does it give your full root user SSH login or a sudo user which you need to elevate to full root user via sudo -i ?

    Centmin Mod doesn't natively work with sudo user usage so Centmin Mod initial install isn't properly installed as it requires full root non-sudo user. Centmin Mod 123.09beta01 has made progress so that sudo user is supported only after initial Centmin Mod install but not for initial install. But I also made some recent undocumented improvements so you could technically install if you prefix every centmin mod related command with sudo. You can see changes I made in Dec 2019 on official Github repo search at centminmod/centminmod. This change outlined at Beta Branch - update installers to setup /etc/sudoers.d/addpaths earlier in 123.09beta01 is one that is key to making sudo work for initial Centmin Mod installs if all commands are prefixed with sudo.

    So with sudo user installs, to install Centmin Mod it would become
    Code (Text):
    sudo yum -y update; sudo curl -O https://centminmod.com/betainstaller73.sh && sudo chmod 0700 betainstaller73.sh && sudo bash betainstaller73.sh
    

    note every command is prefixed with sudo

    Or you can as sudo user switch to root user before running install via
    Code (Text):
    sudo -i


    It's undocumented feature as virtually no testing is done by me for VPS providers that force sudo user on CentOS. I did make these sudo changes as other Centmin Mod users on Google Cloud were having issues and confirm sudo prefix changes worked for them. Just no testing done by me. So if Alibaba Cloud users sudo user too, you may need to reinstall fresh CentOS 7 OS, and try install Centmin Mod via the sudo version commands.

    thank you for your help, really apreciate!

    = I don't have linux skill at all, i just read many article in this site and viola my vps is working. So i can't answer the question that i didn't understand. :)

    you get that where ? on first run of centmin.sh menu ? on first run to access the menu.
    its okay now, i already fix it by googling... :)

    review alibaba free tier= i think performance is below the paid vps. but it's okay because its free. maybe next year will back to paid vps, but $5/months is too much for me. :D

    Thank you again
