A few questions (Subdomain & Updates)

What you mention seem like customizations to our software. However example.com/cpanel and example.com/webmail should work by default.

To ensure you have disabled automatic updates, go to WHM -> Server Configuration -> Update Config and set everything to Never and then when you're ready to update, switch to Manual. This will prevent accidental updates from occurring.

 

cPanel/WHM natively supports the use of subdomains for the creation of separate cPanel accounts. Note, this would be different than creating an account using a domain then creating a subdomain under that account. Going via WHM ensures the subdomain is on its own account.

 

Just I still have doubt how can we configure so users can access both ways

http://cpanel.example.com
http://www.example.com/cpanel

And

http://webmail.example.com
http://www.example.com/webmail

 

/cpanel, /webmail and /whm are enabled by default upon install.

cpanel., webmail. and whm. are enabled via Tweak Settings (as of 11.23, this thread mostly pre-dates this functionality).

 

So if I understand this function will be available in the future ?

 

It is available to those using cPanel 11.23 or later.

 

Im using Cpanel latest version how can I activate it ?

 

As long as you're not on STABLE, you can go to WHM -> Server Configuration -> Tweak Settings -> Domains and check "Add proxy VirtualHost to httpd.conf to automatically redirect unconfigured cpanel, webmail, webdisk and whm subdomains to the correct port (requires mod_rewrite and mod_proxy)." Then click save at the bottom of the page.

If you check this and it still doesn't work as intended, ensure you have mod_proxy enabled. You can do this by going to EasyApache (WHM -> Software -> Apache Update) and proceeding to step 5, then clicking on "Exhaustive Options List" and ensuring "Proxy" is checked. If not, check it and proceed with the build process.

 

Sorry but what you mean with "not on STABLE", this is the version Im using:

WHM 11.23.0 cPanel 11.23.3-R25068
CENTOS Enterprise 4.6 i686 on standard - WHM X v3.1.0

 

That means you are on our RELEASE branch, not STABLE. We have 4 builds of cPanel at any time: EDGE, CURRENT, RELEASE (the default) and STABLE. Updates propagate from EDGE to CURRENT then to RELEASE and eventually to STABLE.

 

It's working thanks for the help!
