For donors x86_64
Short answer. CodeIT builds current nginx, Apache httpd with HTTP/3 (mod_http3) and OpenSSL 4.0 with QUIC for CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7, as signed packages for x86_64. Run one command to add the repository. Then install with yum. Access is for donors.
Install on EL7
Add the repository with one command:
curl -fsSL https://repo.codeit.guru/setup | sudo shOr install the release package directly:
sudo yum install -y https://repo.codeit.guru/codeit-repo-release.el7.rpmAccess is per server IP. If the repository index shows HTTP 403, the IP of the server is not on the donor list. Terms: a recurring donation (Patreon “Small company” tier or higher, or $5+ per month on PayPal), the same as for CentOS 7.
Install nginx with HTTP/3 and Brotli:
sudo yum install -y nginx nginx-module-brotliInstall Apache httpd with HTTP/2 and HTTP/3:
sudo yum install -y httpd mod_ssl mod_http2 mod_http3Details, key checks and removal: Enterprise Linux instructions. All releases: Supported releases.

Why CodeIT.guru on EL7
- Security updates after the vendor stopped. CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7 has Apache 2.4.6 and OpenSSL 1.0.2k. CodeIT.guru gives current Apache httpd 2.4.71, nginx and OpenSSL 4.0.3 for the internet-facing services.
- Fewer scan findings. Scanners (OpenVAS, Nessus, Qualys, PCI ASV) read the version of the web server and of OpenSSL. Current versions remove the version findings.
- Evidence for audits and certifications. Current packages help with ISO 27001, PCI DSS and SOC 2 evidence for patching and for encryption in transit.
- Validated. Every build is tested in CI on EL7 (x86_64) before it goes to stable. Packages and repository metadata are signed with GPG.
- Safe. The package names are the same as in the distribution, and yum updates them. You do not upgrade the operating system. OpenSSL 4.0 is installed beside the system OpenSSL.
- Modern protocols too. HTTP/2, HTTP/3 with QUIC, TLS 1.3 and Brotli on the same server.
- Same-day builds, CVE first. We aim to build every upstream release on the day it comes out. CVE fixes have the top priority.
- Trusted since 2016 by system administrators in 93 countries.
Frequently asked questions
How do I install nginx with HTTP/3 on CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7?
Add the repository with curl -fsSL https://repo.codeit.guru/setup | sudo sh, then run sudo yum install -y nginx nginx-module-brotli. The packages are for x86_64.
How do I install Apache httpd with HTTP/3 on CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7?
Add the repository with curl -fsSL https://repo.codeit.guru/setup | sudo sh, then run sudo yum install -y httpd mod_ssl mod_http2 mod_http3. mod_http3 adds HTTP/3 to Apache httpd 2.4.71.
Which packages and architectures does CodeIT have for CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7?
x86_64. Apache httpd 2.4.71, mod_http3 0.0.78, nginx 1.30.6, OpenSSL 4.0.3 with QUIC, nghttp2 1.71.0, ngtcp2 1.26.0 and nghttp3 1.19.0.
How do I get access to the CodeIT repository on CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7?
Access needs a recurring donation (Patreon “Small company” tier or higher, or $5+ per month on PayPal), the same terms as for CentOS 7. Access is per server IP. Without it, the repository index answers HTTP 403. The release package is public.
Does the CodeIT repository replace the system packages on CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7?
No. The package names are the same, so yum installs the CodeIT build when the repository is on. OpenSSL 4.0 is a separate library beside the system OpenSSL. You do not upgrade the operating system.
Does CodeIT help with vulnerability scans and audits on CentOS 7, RHEL 7, Oracle Linux 7?
Yes, for the web stack. Current Apache httpd, nginx and OpenSSL remove the version findings of scanners such as OpenVAS, Nessus, Qualys and PCI ASV, and they give evidence for ISO 27001, PCI DSS and SOC 2.
