Hi there,
I was trying to upgrade my Centos 7 cloud to Almalinux.But I stacked at Stage 4.
After run /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/sysup command, I have the error below

(XID 7nb8ec) “/usr/bin/yum” reported error code “1” when it ended:

I have tried to install dnf-plugin-universal-hooks but I could not find a way.
I would be glad if you help.

Hey there! Can you run the following commands on the system and then see if "yum update" works well?

yum clean all
yum makecache

It looks like the Yum configuration for the EasyApache 4 repository was updated to be hard-coded to use the CentOS 7 packages, and that was causing the conflict. When replaced with the default configuration of:

mirrorlist=http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/ea4-c$releasever-$basearch-mirrorlist

things began working normally.
