Can't update DNSOnly server due to EA4?

[4u123]

NOTE: A system upgrade was not possible due to the following blockers:
[2019-06-12 14:19:01 +0100] W [FATAL] - You must migrate from EA3 to EA4 before upgrading to v78 or newer. You can do so by running /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/migrate_ea3_to_ea4 or via WHM’s EasyApache 4 Migration interface.

Error: EasyApache4 is not available on DNSOnly Servers.

Catch 22?

Hello @4u123,

Can you confirm if this DNSOnly server was at one point a standard cPanel & WHM server and later converted to DNSOnly? Also, can you execute the command below and share the output?

/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -v

If Apache is installed on the DNSOnly server, you'll need to uninstall it or manually remove /usr/sbin/httpd and/or /usr/local/apache/ to ensure the update script does not detect the presence of EasyApache 3.

Thank you.
