    Hello,

    Are you running a firewall that is configuring settings in iptables such as CSF or APF?

    Code:
    whereis csf
whereis apf
    If you are, please try disabling or uninstalling it and then trying to start iptables. Of note, iptables is a system level issue that isn't part of cPanel. If you cannot resolve that issue, you may well need to seek the advice of your datacenter, NOC or provider.

    Thanks!

    Please uninstall or entirely disable APF as suggested to see the results.
