Group: Member Post Group: Newbie Posts: 17 Status:	This was intended as a reply to my previous post where the update broke my server but I thought I should share it more widely to make people aware. 6 years with webuzo. I know it from inside out, it’s never been a 1 click install, even had to reverse engineer at some point. It’s just not cool to break a production server running for 3 years without issues with webuzo. Thank god for enterprise backups. Thank god also I never do automatic updates for webuzo and this time it installed modules like Zlib and GD without any backups or restore options like other apps (php nginx etc.). That is why even with a premium license I manually install most apps. Because webuzo is boss, on any update it overwrites CSF rules, PHP rules, Nginx rules etc. Even when CSF updates itself via CSF –u –u[/b] it merges the changes on the .conf but webuzo doesn’t care. This is the routine, for every PHP update, 1. I have to compare php.ini / merge changes, 2. set env[PATH] to /usr/local/apps/php56/etc/php-fpm.conf because Owncloud or NextCloud errors out, 3. check if php-fpm ports have changed and apply changes to Nginx install. How do you expect any type of security when the Nginx domain template is 5 lines from webuzo, when my NextCloud domain alone config is 128 lines of code, created following template from the provider. Every webuzo update, I have to overwrite settings, delete cron jobs hidden in many places (some are even Zend protected but I have identified which). And finally delete the “emp” user who has no business on my server.
