System Error when Trying to Generate CSR

[Techwebhosting]

Hello,

For some reason when attempting to create a CSR on my cPanel server I receive the following error.

[a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive]

I receive this error both using the CSR generator in WHM and cPanel.


I can click on the error after attempting to generate from cPanel and I receive this.

I have tried forcing the system to update to resolve the problem and was not able to.

Does anyone else have any ideas? I need to update a cert that is expiring and I am unable to generate a CSR on this server for it.

Hello

I have seen this happen before when the permissions on /var/tmp are not configured as 1777. Could you check the permissions on this directory and update them if necessary?

Thank you.

Good Afternoon,

I checked the permissions as requested and they appeared to be correct, just to be safe I went ahead and reapplied them anyway.

However unfortunately I am still getting the same error.

You also mentioned that you were not able to update cPanel to resolve the issue. Do you mean the cPanel update itself failed, or that the update completed successfully and did not resolve the issue? There could be some incorrect permissions configured elsewhere on the system. I recommend opening a support ticket so we can take a closer look:

Please post the ticket number here so we can update this thread with the outcome.

Thank you.
