Are you able to access WHM at https://server.domain.com:2087 ? Can you please check the services status via ssh?

Hello

Have you tried restarting cPanel again via the command line? EX:

service cpanel restart

Also, you can backup and remove the existing certificate data for cPanel/WHM from the following directory:

/var/cpanel/ssl/cpanel/

Then, regenerate a self-signed certificate via:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/checkallsslcerts

This should allow you to determine if the SSL certificate you installed is invalid.

Thank you.

Thank you for the reply problem has been sorted.

There was an error with the private key in all pems, we recreated them again, and it worked.

It seems that both WHM and we the first time, somehow created pems with some error in private key part.

Not sure why both WHM and I can't create private keys properly.

I had to recreate a private key file, by outputting the content of ftp pem file to the key files, and then deleting everything after the -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- line.

With that being said the new SSL was set up properly through WHM, Manage Service SSL Certificates for all four services at the same time. After installing hundreds of SSL plus installing SSL's on servers for the server services I have never had this happen.
