ConfigServer Community Forum

I've installed CSF on many servers, but today, I installed it on a new Cloud VPS at OVH.

Running csftest, I get OK on all points except xt_connlimit.

I see the link in WHM, and when I click it, I see the CSF logo and the heading text "ConfigServer Security & Firewall - csf v7.56"

But that's it -- blank beneath that.

Thinking that a bit abnormal, I uninstalled, restarted VPS, reinstalled CSF -- same issue. I'm running WHM 11.44.1 (build 19).

For fun(!), I pulled up another new VPS at another host and installed CSF, same issue (so it isn't isolated to OVH).

I'm at a bit of a loss as to what's up... Anyone able to give some place for me to start to figure this out?

The first thing to check is the cpanel error log in /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log when visiting the URL.

Thank you for the advice. I've just checked, and the only reference to csf is:

No such file or directory at /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/configserver/csf.cgi line 59.

This doesn't appear to be triggered at the time I click the WHM link to CSF, but it was the only line with csf in it.

when I check the above directory, there is a file called csf.cgi in it, and a folder called csf
all are owned by root

As an aside(?), the server is running Perl v5.10.1

Ah-ha -- my bad! I uncompressed the installer into /etc/csf -- I uninstalled CSF, and then untarred the installer into /tmp/csf and installed from there...

Issue resolved, GUI loads fine.
