Backup error on .HttpRequest directory

[LoadFactor]

I'm getting an error on cPanel backups:

/home/xxxxxxxx/.HttpRequest: Unable to open directory: Permission denied at /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/pkgacct line 1799.

The directory is owned by root:wheel and has 700 permissions. It looks like it contains a SSL private key, which explains the permissions.

Any suggestions on the best way to resolve this?

There should not be any SSL keys in that directory. In our servers I see a file named httpupdate.cpanel.net in those directories.

Owner and group of that directory should be that account's username, permissions 700.

Hello

Make sure user and group ownership of that directory is set to the account username.

Thank you.
