    Try to check ownership of your $HOMEDIR/etc $HOMEDIR/etc/*/shadow $HOMEDIR/etc/*/passwd files and folder and test it again.

    Code:
     chown $user:mail $HOMEDIR/etc $HOMEDIR/etc/*/shadow $HOMEDIR/etc/*/passwd
    Note : Replace $HOMEDIR to your userhome directory (/home/cPUSER) and $user to cPanel user name

    Hello,

    While you may find some manual commands that you can run to help resolve the issue, it's really a better idea to install a new OS and complete a new installation of cPanel. Then, restore the accounts on the new server from backup, or by using the transfer option in Web Host Manager if you have no previous backups available.

    Thank you.
