Cannot login to WHM/cPanel but can with SSH

[Drumrocker365]

Hello,

I am unable to login with any of my WHM/cPanel accounts, but I can login with SSH. I have tried restarting the server, changing the root password, and running SSH command to restart cPanel services. None of the following have helped.

Please help!

Thanks,
Christian

Looks like the firewall is blocking you, try disabling iptables temporarily to see if it helps or not:

/etc/init.d/iptables save
/etc/init.d/iptables stop

I didn't even have to do anything, it just started working again.

Do you have CSF installed? If so check the settings and whitelist yourself.

If not, then cPHulk was blocking you, whitelist yourself or tweak settings accordingly.

Good luck.

Hello

It's likely the usernames were locked out by cPhulk brute force detection. Ensure you add your own personal IP address to the white list to prevent this from happening in the future.

Thank you.
