Is your issue resolved?
Are you using shared IP Pool ?]]> Sat, 15 Nov 2025 03:44:33 GMT https://www.softaculous.com/board/index.php?tid=20265&tpg=1#p60207 <![CDATA[Re-Add Slave after Forcibly remove]]> https://www.softaculous.com/board/index.php?tid=20265&tpg=1#p60206

I had a master server with a slave. I found the slave offline since 2 days. The master had his version updated from 3.19 to 3.25. I resetted the API keys on the master and tried to sync but no sync. I then updated the master API key in slave universal.php but it won't do. I tried to remove to add it back and I forcibly removed the slave. I updated the version to 3.25 on the slave. Now when we try to add it back we have the error saying that IPs of VPS on the slave server already exist:"the following IP(s) already exist on the master .

How can I proceed to add this slave again please?

PS:

No slave record on the master UI

Universal.php on master:
$globals['slave'] = 0;
$globals['masterkey'] = '';
$globals['masterip'] = '';
$globals['key'] = '....M2jrH9DlYs74JCx...............'; // do not exist on master
$globals['pass'] = '.....gvtHzAGVhdhqk................'; // do not exist on master

Universal.php on slave:
$globals['slave'] = '1';
$globals['masterkey'] = 'xigYQDNq1CHIAc.............'; // exists on the master
$globals['masterip'] = 'x.220.19.177';
$globals['key'] = '.....ptkP9FW6kOlp.................'; // exists on the slave
$globals['pass'] = '......HZ7QDz8N....................'; // exists on the slave

Thanks

It seems like the old IP records from the slave are still causing issues on the master server. To fix this, you should check the master’s database and remove any old IP entries associated with the slave. After deleting those entries, restart the web service and then try to re-add the slave using the updated master key in universal.php. Ensure both servers are running version 3.25 before syncing.]]> Sat, 15 Nov 2025 02:45:59 GMT https://www.softaculous.com/board/index.php?tid=20265&tpg=1#p60206 <![CDATA[Re-Add Slave after Forcibly remove]]> https://www.softaculous.com/board/index.php?tid=20265&tpg=1#p60090

The error means old IP records from the slave still exist on the master.
Delete those IPs from the master’s database (ips or servers table), restart the web service, then re-add the slave using the current master key from universal.php.
