VestaCP on CentOS 7

[andygmorris]

Hi VestaCP Devs,

What's the hold-up in configuring VestaCP for CentOS 7?
Do you need any help or anyone to test the scripts on CentOS 7?

CentOS 7 is supported until 30-JUN-2024
CentOS 6 is supported until 30-NOV-2020
CentOS 5 is supported until 31-MAR-2014
For reference, Ubuntu 14.04 is supported to APR-2019

As you can see, anyone implementing hosting for long-term businesses would far prefer CentOS 7.

What can we (all) do to push this along?

they will have support for CentOS 7 soon... you just have to be patience

but if you ask me personally I will not migrate to CenOS 7 not until in the next year or 2... ill wait until everything is stable.. I think that is what the Vesta team is also doing...

Thank you for the reply.

CentOS 7 is based on the production release of RHEL 7.
What do you consider to be 'unstable' in CentOS 7?

Every CentOS release I've used in production have been rock solid for me.
Feedback, and personal opinions, are welcome.

For reference: VestaCP is relatively new to me although I've already successfully configured a number of web servers using it on CentOS 6 and Ubuntu 14.04, but I'm not new to CentOS or Ubuntu.

Hi, vestacp is not working with centos 7
We adapt vestacp when centos 7 will be stable

Glad to here that. Keep up your good job :)

BTW, for "stable" term doesn't mean only about OS and package. It's also mean that we (as a community wide) has a solid knowledge to operation and able to get though the major bug/issue, interim solution is needed once some thing went wrong without any patch/bug fix release.

I've been in a situation that no once ever found the issue/bug before. There are no interim solution/patch/bug fix to get it work and it cause me some $$$ as a penalty since I couldn't maintain the SLA to my customer.

Hi "imperio",

Would you have a timeline on that?
If it's close, I will use the new release.
I've just built another server, with CentOS 6.5, but would prefer 7.0 if you can get Vesta sitting on it comfortably.
Meaning, I would sacrifice this particular 6.5 install and reinstall and reconfigure again.
Are you thinking that it will be ready in a few days, 1 week, 2 weeks, etc?
Let me know what you think.

(Dont worry, I wont hold you to a specific date.)

I need to clarify this issue with the developers
