Updated: 28 September 2026 · Applies to: cPanel & WHM 138 (WHM, root access)
On cPanel servers, Apache is provided by EasyApache 4 as normal system packages (ea-apache24). It is updated with the rest of the system, so there is no separate Apache update tool any more. (The old /scripts/easyapache command belonged to EasyApache 3.)
Keep Apache up to date
- Let cPanel's nightly updates run: WHM › Server Configuration › Update Preferences.
- Or update manually as root:
dnf update "ea-*"(yumon older systems).
Change Apache modules or MPM
In WHM, open Software › EasyApache 4, click Customize, switch modules on or off, then Review and Provision.
Check the running version with httpd -v.
