How to Install WHM/cPanel in Almalinux?
cPanel is a widely used web hosting control panel.

Wondering how to install it in Almalinux? In this guide, we have listed the whole process of installing WHM/cPanel in Almalinux. So let’s begin with what Almalinux is?
What is AlmaLinux, and Why Choose AlmaLinux?
AlmaLinux is a free Cloudlinux alternative to CentOS, first released in March 2021.
AlmaLinux is the latest and most stable version of the operating system. The most popular OS was CentOS 8, but unfortunately, the Red Hat announced that it would not support the CentOS 8 after 31st Dec 2021 and upgraded it to CentOS 8 stream.
In between all this, cPanel announced it would not support the CentOS stream. So now, AlmaLinux 8 has been released and will be supported until 2029.
Benefits of AlmaLinux

You do not have to pay for an RHEL license if you choose AlmaLinux.

AlmaLinux quickly fixes bugs and issues and releases the update on time.
WHM/cPanel support:
Paid control panels will continue to work and develop with AlmaLinux. And control panels that are already compatible with AlmaLinux will work flawlessly and safely.
The long-term support:
AlmaLinux 8.x will be supported until 2029, giving users plenty of time to trust it.
Virtualization technology:
AlmaLinux Is supported by virtualization technologies such as OpenVZ and KVM.
Resources required for the installation of AlmaLinux 8

Note: You cannot uninstall the control panel from the server once you have installed it.
