Adding an SSL cert in WHM throws an error.
It gives me this error at top. “The system failed to find an owner for the domain “domain.com”.”
Resolution
The domain was added in accounts in WHM as www.domain.com. Chabge to domain.com

Sometimes such behavior of apache/httpd (taking more and more memory until it dies or crashes the server) can be caused by corrupted MySQL database. Try to do the following:
1) Kill the mysql server
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql stop
2) Repair all SQL databases:
myisamchk -r /var/lib/mysql/*/*.MYI
3) Start mysql again:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start
If you have a Windows server and FileZilla Server as your FTP server (the default for our Managed Windows servers), you can easily add additional FTP users as needed. Each user will be ‘jailed’ into their shared folder.
Open FileZilla Server Interface (start menu or desktop icon), then click ‘OK’ on the ‘Connect to Server’ dialog.’
Go to Edit -> Users.
Click Add, type in username, then click ‘OK’.
Click the ‘password’ checkbox and enter the password.
Click ‘Shared folders’, then click ‘Add’ and choose a folder.
Check (enable) all permissions under ‘Files’ and ‘Directories’.
Click ‘OK’ towards the bottom.
The users/settings will be updated on the last step.
Migration check in plesk shows this error:
The ‘max_allowed_packet’ parameter on the source database server is 16777216, which is bigger than on the destination server, where it is 1048576
RDP the the server. The file is at C:Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskDatabasesMySQLDatamy.ini
Add this to it:
[mysqld] # max_allowed_packet=16M
Sometimes the resolvers in the server cannot find a server. You can update the DNS resolvers (/etc/resolv.conf) to rotate between a number of nameservers to try and resolve the issue. Add google nameservers to the mix with your Host resolvers.
# nano /etc/redolv.conf nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 69.xx.xx.xx nameserver 8.8.4.4 nameserver 69.xx.xx.xx
Go to
From the Change Hostname section of WHM:
WHM > Networking Setup > Change Hostname
The following guide was taken from Cpanel support forum. This information is when you need to migrate Cpanel account information from one drive or to another.
Manually moving Cpanel
These commands will allow you to manually migrate all customer data and configs from an old primary drive installed as a slave.
source drive should be mounted to /mnt/slave1
run chkrootkit to make sure you don’t copy back infected files.. chkrootkit — locally checks for signs of a rootkit
now we can start copying back data from the old drive
Run these rSync commands to move everything over:
# rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/usr/local/apache/conf /usr/local/apache # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/var/named /var # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/home/* /home # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/usr/local/cpanel /usr/local # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/var/lib/mysql /var/lib # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/var/cpanel /var # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/usr/share/ssl /usr/share # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/var/ssl /var # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/var/log/bandwidth /var/log # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/usr/local/frontpage /usr/local # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/var/spool/cron /var/spool # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/root/.my.cnf /root # rsync -vrplogDtH /slave1/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf
* rsync options
-v, –verbose increase verbosity
-r, –recursive recurse into directories
-p, –perms preserve permissions
-l, –links copy symlinks as symlinks
-o, –owner preserve owner (super-user only)
-g, –group preserve group
-D same as –devices –specials
-t, –times preserve modification times
-H, –hard-links preserve hard links
See a list of all the options –
cd to the old etc directory:
#cd /slave1/etc
And copy some files from here:
# rsync -vrplogDtH secondarymx domainalias valiases vfilters exim* proftpd* pure-ftpd* passwd* group* *domain* *named* wwwacct.conf cpupdate.conf quota.conf shadow* *rndc* ips* ipaddrpool* ssl hosts /etc
