cPanel 94 and cPanel Error Pages

[PeteS]

Everything with a CPANEL-##### case doesn't necessarily indicate a bug that we fixed. These can be improvements, or just general development tasks.

It was decided that we needed to have the error documents available in a place that cPanel users could manipulate them easily as part of the account creation - some users liked getting those, and some didn't. What we didn't include was a way to make their creation optional. But CPANEL-34417 wasn't a "fix" of anything, just the paper trail for this work by our devs.

Ok, I accept that, but from the docs it appeared to be a fix. Is cPanel really the desperate that it feels the need to add this branded content without giving us any control?!

More importantly right now... let's have a work-around to disable it. (Yes, I can put my own version of of these unwanted pages in /root/cpanel3-skel/public_html, or I can delete them manually. But I'm talking a hack to the account creation script, or an override file to just stop the silliness.) Please give us this much now...

I upvoted the feature request (fix).

I do have news this time :D

We have case CPANEL-36610 for the developers to add an option to WHM >> Tweak Settings to make these optional :D It's scheduled to be included in a future version of 96, and I'll post again as soon as I have a specific version number available.

Hi guys,

CPANEL-36610 already available for V94?

 

[cPRex]

@benato.bruno - not quite yet - it's still being tested.

Can we do a server-wide find and delete for this pages? I suppose it would work.

 

[cPRex]

The option to turn these on or off is scheduled to be in 94.0.9.

I suppose you could do a find/delete on these, just making sure you limit that search to /home/username. You can also edit the contents of the files in /usr/local/cpanel/htdocs and your edits will then be used for future account creation.

 

[stormy]

It seems there's now a Tweak Settings option for this and the default is Off. So, are we all set?

 

[cPRex]

That should be all there is to it :D

 

[garbintecnologia]

Hello, what would be the path and option to disable the creation of these pages?
Another question, is it possible when creating a new account an index page/file would be created as a welcome screen? If so, how can I do it?

I am currently using WHM v96.0.8

Thank's

@garbintecnologia - the options in Tweak Settings are stored in /var/cpanel/cpanel.config and the value specific to this is copy_default_error_documents. You'd want to change that value to 0 to disable the creation of those pages, although that is the default value.

The option may also be listed in the tweak_unset_vars line so make sure it is not present there if you edit the file manually.

You could use the skeleton directory system if you wanted to add a specific file to each domain when the account is initially created. Details on that work can be found here: Skeleton Directory | cPanel & WHM Documentation

 

[garbintecnologia]

I checked here and it appears as:
copy_default_error_documents=0 and tweak_unset_vars=copy_default_error_documents

Should the tweak_unset_vars be equal to 0?

Because until then I did not change this configuration my WHM updated from 94 to 96 in the last week.

 

[cPRex]

tweak_unset_vars can just be an empty area after the =

That options is not in v.94, in v.96 it's in Tweak Settings -> System, " Copy default error documents to docroot for new accounts, addon domains, and subdomains "
