    Hi,

    Not sure if this is due to the recent WHM update from 56 to 58 or to the upgrade from EasyApache 3 to 4 but right now whm-server-status is forbidden.

    If I check in the WHM web interface I can see the apache status but lfd is reporting that now the whm-server-status is forbidden. If I try from a ssh console I get the same error.

    How can this be fixed? If I add the tweak settings the allowed IP addresses 127.0.0.1 and the IP address of whm/cpanel server the apache status tool from WHM reports nothing.

    Before it was perfectly fine.

    Thanks!

    Adding more information, I have changed the Apache to port 82 (I already had with WHM 56 and worked fine).

    I have Varnish running on port 80 and whm-server-status requests are forwarded to the Apache backend.

    I have checked this thread Apache status not working after customizing port and I´m wondering if maybe this has become an issue with the new version?

    Hello,

    I've seen instances where Mod_Security rules block access to that URL. Could you let us know the output from /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log when this happens?

    Thank you.

    Could you open a support ticket using the link in my signature so we can take a closer look? You can post the ticket number here so we can update this thread with the outcome.

    Thank you.
