Thanks, Peter.
Can you post the migration notes the list?
I'll make it a script.

HI,
SDL 8 has the same EOL as RHEL 8: May, 2029.
SDL existed before CentOS, it's provided by a university, so it should
be a good option for the next eight years.
Migrating from CentOS 8 to SDL 8 was pretty straightforward, not that
many commands. I can provide the migration notes if someone is
interested.
Best,
Peter

Yes, I would recommend staying with CentOS 7 for the time being...
But, Springdale promises longevity and stability. I was hoping to have the
bases covered.
The makers of Rocky are predicting having an OS out before next year. This is
the direction I'd really like to head.
I'm still going to try to get a Debian/Devaun version going as well.
There is an OpenSUSE version of QMT out now, just trying to keep options open.

So the question here is CentOS 8 eol is 2021 not sure it’s even worth that
route. Anyhow that could be a totally diff topic but CentOS 7 looks to have a
longer support life now.

Ok it appears my second problem was due to having php74 (and not php)
from remi's repo installed before running the script.
Removing mariadb-server and php74 and then rerunning the install
script seems to have done the trick.
Next step to migrate domains from old cos5 server...

Hi,
I tried installing latest QMT using Eric's qt_install_cos8.sh script.
I have a CentOS 8 VM that I had converted to Springdale Linux 8.
I ran into a few issues:
1) MariaDB password setup failed somehow. Maybe because I had MariaDB
already installed on this server? I could not access the mariadb
server after this failure, and needed to start the server without
grant tables and then disable "plugin authentication" (I also defined
the pw again just in case):
service mariadb stop
mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
sudo mysql -u root
[mysql] use mysql;
[mysql] update user set plugin='' where User='root';
[mysql] UPDATE user SET password=PASSWORD("my_password") WHERE user="root";
[mysql] flush privileges;
CTRL+D
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
service mariadb start
I then rerun the part:
credfile=~/sql.cnf
echo "Creating vpopmail database..."
mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=$credfile reload
mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=$credfile refresh
mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=$credfile create vpopmail
mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=$credfile reload
mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=$credfile refresh
echo "Adding vpopmail users and privileges..."
mysql --defaults-extra-file=$credfile -e "CREATE USER
vpopmail@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'SsEeCcRrEeTt'"
mysql --defaults-extra-file=$credfile -e "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON
vpopmail.* TO vpopmail@localhost"
mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=$credfile reload
mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=$credfile refresh
echo "Done with vpopmail database..."
BTW should the vpopmail mysql pw be changed to something else or is
the default pw used somewhere else?
2) Some issues at the end of the script with clamav:
