Question Remove CloudLinux and move to CentOS, is possible?

MicheleB

Regular Pleskian
Is there a way to remove CloudLinux and restore CentOS without having to activate/migrate a new server?
 
Hello MicheleB,

Thank you for your question.

The scenario to move from Cloudlinux with Plesk to CentOS is not officially supported yet.

You can perform this action at your own risk using the steps provided by Cloudlinux: Installation
Then, you will need to manually install some packages such as 'psa-mod_fcgid' and remove 'passenger-cagefs' if applicable.

However, the most preferable way is to migrate to a new server with CentOS.
