Issue with CyberPanel: Unable to Start OpenLiteSpeed Service

[chidotoji]

Dear Everybody,

I am experiencing an issue with my CyberPanel setup. All of my websites are currently down, although I can still access the panel at port 8090. Upon checking the Services Status, I noticed that OpenLiteSpeed is listed as “Stopped.”

When I attempt to start the service by clicking “Start,” the system responds with “Action Completed,” but the service does not actually restart. I also tried to activate it using SSH, but that did not resolve the issue either. My current CyberPanel version is 2.5.7

Could you please provide guidance on steps I should take to troubleshoot and resolve this issue? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated, as I need my websites to be operational as soon as possible.

Thank you for your help.

Best regards,

you have been hacked, reinstall the kernel, restore the backup, and then install a SAFE panel. not CyberPanel.

Has the entire Cyberpanel system been attacked?

Solution for protecting yourself from future threats

I had earlier decided to just give up on Cyberpanel because I can’t deal with this headache again but I found a solution to protect myself. systemctl stop lscpd Ta-da! I rarely need Cyberpanel so why should it just keep running always? The website will work fine because they are powered by Litespeed. I can start CyberPanel when I need it and then shut it down. If only I had thought of it before. Ugh

I don’t know any other panel that’s as good and (cheap) as Cyberpanel

@chidotoji

fastpanel

as much money as I paid, I went and paid for it.

Virtualmin is very solid. I have used it on servers for 12 years now and not one problem. The only thing is it doesn’t have Litespeed. It runs Apache and Nginx.
