Hey there! I would not expect a cPanel update to change the accessibility of the server as an update would not change access to any ports on the machine.

/etc/xinetd.d is also empty on a test server I just checked, so that is likely not related to the issue.

Do you see the cPanel service running properly? The following command would show the service running on the system:

Code:
ps aux | grep cpsrvd
and this command would show the cPanel ports listening for connections:

Code:
netstat -lpn | grep 208

sure master,
as I say in my title: we restart cPanel multiple times...
Code:
[root@pepsi ~]# /bin/systemctl start cpanel.service
[root@pepsi ~]#
and you can see:
Code:
[root@pepsi ~]# /bin/systemctl status cpanel.service
? cpanel.service - cPanel services

Could you submit a support ticket to our team? Since you're not able to open one through WHM, you can email [email protected] to get that process started.
we can't open WEB cpanel in server, then how we get the "ID SERVER" / "SERIAL SERVER" required for OPEN ticket ?

some idea about this diagnostic:
Code:
...
Checking accounting.log file for first created account
        \_ First account created on: Tue Jan 11 05:07:48 2022
This server's environment (envtype) is: kvm

Found the following (possibly related) issues:
        \_ Could not reach port 23 on auth.cpanel.net from this server -- connections may be throttled.
        \_ Could not reach port 143 on auth.cpanel.net from this server -- connections may be throttled.

I wouldn't expect webamil to work either if the cPanel services aren't running properly.

You could always try forcing a cPanel update with the "/scripts/upcp --force" command to see if that helps get things working.
after of your command:
Code:
/scripts/upcp --force
...
...
