XSkin initial WHM setup broken

[MarlboroMan]

Just as topic says - if you're installing cPanel on a new machine, WHM defaults to Xskin, which has a broken WHM initial setup sequence.

For those who don't want to wait for a fix - here's a workaround.

Go to https://<your_server_ip>:2087/scripts/setmytheme

Click on "blue"

The script won't ever finish for some reason, so just wait a minute or two, then load your WHM normally, and do the initial setup.

How long until this issue is resolved?

Hope the fix will come soon.

If you press Finish prematurely on the initial setup (on the broken interface) and go through Edit Setup from WHM later do you get the same result?
