Error starting Varnish

[dev.ivan]

I have manage to install the Varnish 6.0.5.

varnishd -V
varnishd (varnish-6.0.5 revision 204a927f4a4283529fc89f5182fe8cc3f2d0f617)

But when I starting it, I get the following error:

service varnish start
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start varnish.service
Job for varnish.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status varnish.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

I have found a guy who have a similar issue in 2016 on github . And he saying that

it was a permission issues with CentOS 7.2 and WHM

but he didn't remember how he fixed this, and I don't know where to start.

Can someone point me what I should check to fix this compiller issue. I am currently using CentOS 7 and WHM 84.

ok, it's solved
in WHM 84, I didn't have access to the

Compiler Access

section by default, but I have found the path to it:

{CPANEL_URL}/scripts2/tweakcompilers

but then I have only option to

Disable Compilers

, and nothing changed after I press it.

So I changed the value of the form input using Chrome Devtools to -

Enable Compilers

and it's solved the previous issue
