CustomBuild 2.0 won't work in AlmaLinux 8

[Vinion]

Hello,

I installed DirectAdmin on a clean AlmaLinux 8 installation using the following commands
sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install epel-release

bash <(curl -Ss https://www.directadmin.com/setup.sh || wget -O - https://www.directadmin.com/setup.sh) auto

After I logged in into DirectAdmin interface I added the CustomBuild Plugin 2.0 from http://www.custombuild.eu/plugin/custombuild.tar.gz
but Custom Build Plugin 2.0 wont work as you can see in the attached screenshot

Should I change something to a config file ?

maybe you need to wait around hour. In now day, DA will install in background tasks.

I installed it yesterday. There are no processes in the background as far as I can see

What's the version of PHP? I guess main version of PHP is end-of-life, I'd suggest using more modern version as the main version on the system.

I actually found that PHP wasn't installed at all. I thought that DA could install all prerequisites in order to work but it seems that the user needs to install/manage almost everything thought the console. It is a nice software but installing it and making it work needs a linux experienced user/console rat.

No that is not the case.
Normally DA does indeed do the complete installation for you as you can see from here:

Install guide | Directadmin Docs

DirectAdmin Knowledge Base

docs.directadmin.com

so if certain things did not install, then there must be something causing this issue. And if DA knows and it's a DA cause, they can fix this.

Ofcourse you need to follow the install guide. Copy and paste pre-install commands for the clean OS to begin with.
