Cpanel's default support for secure parameters for Diffie-Hellman key exchange is not optimal, and even considered insufficient by some official organisations. See for example : IT Security Guidelines for Transport Layer Security (TLS) That's why I want to increase them. This is what I've...

After installing NGINX proxy for cPanel I'm getting this error in "Server Information" under all cPanel accounts: Error: The system failed to create the file “/var/run/chkservd/apache_php_fpm.lock” (as EUID: 1004, EGID: 1005 1005) because of the following error: No such file or directory How...

Hi, Apache config question here. I'm dealing with an unusual project where I need to interface a WHM v104.0 w/ Apache 2.4 server with an old piece of technology from the early 90's with the simplest HTTP requests possible, so I have a socket on the old computer connected to the WHM server and I...

Previously I had bought a litespeed license, then litespeed has expired and is no longer running. My question is, why can't my website be opened, is it because my WHM apache is not active? and how to activate apache?

All of a sudden all websites in the server has stopped working and it started showing 503 error. While checking at apache logs I can see the below error. [cgid:error] [pid 3859:tid 139722986870528] (2)No such file or directory: [client 31.210.20.125:50060] AH02833: ScriptSock...

Due to the CMS framework we are using (OpenCart), we had to go with server side includes (SSI) to load text content on our webpages (which are dynamic PHP). No doubt php_include would be ideal, however the page templates does not allow php for security reasons. At any rate, we are able to get...

This afternoon my server stopped serving websites or has served them intermittently ever since. I thought it was due to using a Wordpress plugin called Media Cleaner, but after disabling it the problem continued. Then I tried restarting the httpd service which allowed some sites to load before...

Hello, we have a client that needs "ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/<USER>/public_html/cgi-bin/" in httpd.conf It seems to me that "in the past" ticking the "CGI Access" in "Modify an Account" had as consequence of adding this in the VirtualHost / ServerName section of the site in httpd.conf...

I am looking for any Apache or CSF method that will allow me to help better lock down my web server. All my public facing pages are *.HTML pages, all my server processing files are labeled .PHP. Meaning only .PHP files should be accessed by HTML files from my own servers. At the moment, all...

I have the following folder structure domain.com (/public_html/) sub.domain.com (/public_html/sub/) sub.domain.com/dir1/ (/public_html/sub/dir1/) sub.domain.com/dir1/dir2/ (/public_html/sub/dir1/dir2/) if I put the following in my .htaccess file at any of these directories DirectoryIndex...

I am comparing our 2 VPS - one with Centos 6 and the other with Centos 7. I am trying to figure out how to reduce httpd memory consumption on Centos 7. On Centos 6, the memory usage by httpd is something like this: ps aux | grep 'httpd' | grep -v grep | awk '{print $6/1024 " MB\t\t"$11;}' |...

One customer with dedicated server has a problem. If a customer create a point in his DNS for subdomain to point to server, and my customer has not create already a correspondent subdomain in server, server show first subdomain create on httpd.conf I've tried several ways on older post in this...

Greetings ... I'm a pretty experienced DNS user but this one has me stumped. I host my own DNS via WHM (I'm authoritative) and use a secondary DNS service. I created a CNAME for wwww.MLDfoundation.org (yes, 4 w's) resolving to MLD.foundation MLD.foundation loads properly but...

First of all, this is only useful if you want to know more about how programs work, and it might help you if you want to use an OS, which is not supported by cPanel, like for example, Ubuntu is not yet supported by cPanel but, going to be supported in the future, which was mentioned in this blog...

Hello and Happy Halloween to all! I see a lot of "SSL input filter read failed" in my logs and the suggested solution is to modify the Apache Virtual Hosts with Include Files to ip-based hosts. 1) where is this file located and; 2) is this a good solution (I don't like modifying configuration...

Good morning, There is no log evolution on /var/log/apache2/access_log and also on "domlogs". I think that there is a bug with Apache and/or with "splitlog" binary. I already tried to disable piped logs on WHM but it not help. Note that this logs entries still logged, but nothing else...

cPanel has over the years disabled by default WHM features that have become redundant. This is good since it reduces attack surface even in misconfigured servers. With cPanel File Manager, SSH, SFTP, Web Dav, etc, I was wondering why cPanel why the DirectoryIndex is still left enabled by...
