i follow these step by step installation is ok but i don;t know why it not open in browser by ip i use https://ip:2087 but it can't reache error show

do you have any firewall on your local machine ? that may be blocking the connections. You need to browse the WHM with https://serverIP:2087 URL

 

[umer Shahzad]

No i don't have any firewall .i try with https://ip:2087 than it redirect to hostname of server .

Well, apparently something is not ok.

No i don't have any firewall .i try with https://ip:2087 than it redirect to hostname of server

What does this mean exactly? The server comes up but you can't login?

Hello,

You can try temporarily disabling the SSL requirement with a command such as:

whmapi1 set_tweaksetting key=requiressl value=0
/scripts/restartsrv_cpsrvd

Then, access WHM with a URL like this:

http://IP-Address:2086

Remember to enable "Require SSL for cPanel Services" under the "Security" tab in "WHM >> Tweak Settings" after setting up the "A" record for your hostname.

Thank you.

Edit: Fixed WHM URL

When i disable SSL support than why i use https://ip:2086 .after removing SSL than i must use http://ip:2086

 

[cPanelMichael]

after removing SSL than i must use http://ip:2086

Hello,

Yes, that's correct. You'd use "http" with port 2086.

Thank you.

Hello,

Now that you have access to Web Host Manager, you may want to install a firewall management utility such as CSF:

ConfigServer Security & Firewall (csf)

This is designed for cPanel & WHM, so installing it will ensure the common ports are opened in the firewall rules.

Thank you.
