[Tarak Nath]

Hello,

We can able to execute any html or php file via 123.45.67.89/~user/index.html or 123.45.67.89/~user/index.php but not able to do the same through domain like example.com or example.com/index.html or example.com/index.php

Hello @Tarak Nath,

Here's a quote from my response to your other thread (the response is the same for this issue):

There are several limitations when using the Apache Mod_Userdir URL to access a website. These are documented at:

Apache mod_userdir Tweak - Version 78 Documentation - cPanel Documentation

The better approach to access a website before it's DNS resolves to your server is to modify the hosts file on your individual workstation:

How to Modify your hosts File - cPanel Knowledge Base - cPanel Documentation

Can you let me know if the issue persists when accessing the website using the method documented in the link above?

Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for your response.

Please note that we are using suPHP handler in our server. It will worki if we disable "mod_userdir" ?

Hello @Tarak Nath,

To confirm, the "index.html" and "index.php" files are only accessible using the Mod_Userdir URL? Or, are you stating they are not accessible using the Mod_Userdir URL? Are you opening them via a web browser, or through another method? Also, can you share the output to the Apache error log during the failed attempts to execute the "index.html" and "index.php" pages?

Thank you.

are you stating they are not accessible using the Mod_Userdir URL? Are you opening them via a web browser, or through another method?

Yes, they (index.php or index.html) are not accessible via web browser.

 

[cPanelMichael]

Yes, they (index.php or index.html) are not accessible via web browser.

In this case, try accessing the domain names using the hosts file method referenced in my earlier response to verify if they are accessible using that method.

Thank you.

Hello @cPanelMichael ,

I have tried to accessing the domain name after the host file modified as per your previous response.
But the result is remain same.

Hello,

We have found the main reason. There was firewall which created the issue. For security reason, there is a rule for domain name specific traffic request enable /disable.

We have allowed the said domain through firewall and its perfectly working.

Thank you for everything.

Please mark this thread as SOLVED.
