The installation process was unable to synchronize cPanel & WHM. Verify that your network can connect to httpupdate.cpanel.net and rerun the installer.


What I'm using is 6.9 64bits Centos

How could I fix this :(

Thanks

Hello @rohit09,

Can you check to verify that connections to httpupdate.cpanel.net are possible? EX:

Code:
host httpupdate.cpanel.net
ping httpupdate.cpanel.net
Thank you.

I'm facing same issue with the exact same error.
I had cpanel installed on this server till yesterday. I installed cloudlinux on my server yesterday and restarted the server but the OS has crashed and I had to reinstall the OS.
This time I installed the Cloudlinux first (successfully) and then tried to install cpanel, but now facing this error.
Is there any fix for this odd problem?

Here is the output of host and ping commands:
Code:
# ping httpupdate.cpanel.net

Hello @Deker,

Can you confirm if the issue was temporary, or if it continues to be a problem?

Thank you.
