    Exclamation Could not fetch uid or gid for : root - Logging into WHM is broke

    When I logged into WHM today, I am greeted with this:
    Internal Server Error

    Could not fetch uid or gid for : root

    cpsrvd/11.23.2 Server at host.mywebsite.com
    I logged in around 3am fine without any problems. The only thing I did last night was edit SPF records and empty logs.

    I also tried logging in with IE, I got in fine. Why isn't WHM playing nicely with Firefox anymore?

    Hum... I cleared all of my private data in Firefox and got in. Strange, because my settings require Firefox to purge any and all cookies upon browser close.

    Anyone have any suspicions as to what caused this?

    I think you may have been trying to login to cPanel instead of WHM. I just made that mistake.
