SOLVED Unable to set PHP 7.4 Handler

[MWalton]

Hello,

I am unable to set any PHP Handler for PHP 7.4 (ea-php74), when I attempted to, I am presented with the following error

API failure: (XID p3u2nt) Provide the “type” parameter for the “Cpanel::WebServer::Supported::apache::make_handler” function.

I attempted to use the following code from The rebuild_phpconf Script - Version 74 Documentation - cPanel Documentation

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/rebuild_phpconf --ea-php74=cgi

and recieved the following error

(XID 2znnrp) Provide the “type” parameter for the “Cpanel::WebServer::Supported::apache::make_handler” function. at /usr/local/cpanel/bin/rebuild_phpconf line 168.

.
I have tried suPHP, LSAPI and CGI, no difference; I have reinstalled the PHP version via EasyApache and terminal and forced updated the system, no change.
PHP 7.2 and 7.3 both work fine, however, 7.4 does not work.

Hello,

Do you have the ea-php74 package as well as one of the suPHP, LSAPI or CGI packages installed on the server? What is the output of the following?

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/rebuild_phpconf --current

From my tests:

 /usr/local/cpanel/bin/rebuild_phpconf --ea-php74=cgi

then

# /usr/local/cpanel/bin/rebuild_phpconf --current
DEFAULT PHP: ea-php74
ea-php56 SAPI: lsapi
ea-php70 SAPI: lsapi
ea-php71 SAPI: lsapi
ea-php72 SAPI: lsapi
ea-php73 SAPI: lsapi
ea-php74 SAPI: cgi

Interesting, thanks for running that. Will you try reinstalling php 7.4 with the following:

yum -y reinstall ea-php74

And let me know if the issue persists as well as what the output is for reinstalling.

I tried and it completed successfully, however, it did not fix the error

Ok, it's possible we missed a step (meaning I missed a step)

Do you see the following line in /etc/yum.conf

plugins=1

If not can you please add it then reinstall the php 7.4 package again and let me know if the issue persists?
