Changing ssh port breaks web terminal
in Bug Report
I recently changed the ssh port, but as soon as I did so, that broke the web terminal. It shows error connecting to backend.
Any clue on how i can updates the new port on the web terminal?

Thank you! I appreciate your efforts!
Change file; /usr/local/CyberCP/WebTerminal/CPWebSocket.py
self.sshclient.connect('127.0.0.1', 22, username='root', pkey=k)
replace port 22 here
then restart the ssh server and kill CPWeb process
ps aux | grep CPWeb
kill -9 pid number

Did that to no avail. The issue persists.
I haven't tried, but change root in this file.
self.sshclient.connect ( '127.0.0.1', 22, username = 'root', pkey = k)

I’ve already tried that too, along with the new port. Same issue.
But my server is work to different port.

You can get the fix using new upgrade guide -> https://cyberpanel.net/docs/upgrading-cyberpanel/
You will also have to restart SSH web server.

I’ve disabled root from cyberpanel itself, so shouldn’t it have made the changes to the web terminal as well?

Thank you! Will try it in a few hours and update you on the outcome.

I updated, but it still doesn’t work. However, when i re-enabled the root user from cyberpanel itself, the web terminal started working. However, as soon as I disable the root user (again, from cyberpanel itself), the web terminal stops working again.
Can you look into this too please?

Change what exactly? Is there a file i need to make these changes to?

I did those changes then rebooted the ssh server, same issue!

It’s set as “yes”

Works like a charm! Apologies for the late response, I was very busy.

WebTerminal broke yet again after I upgraded cyberpanel the previous time. I upgraded again today and it still seems to be broken. No clue what went wrong, the configs are exactly the way that you told me to set them up a while back.
Here’s the error:
Connecting...
Error connecting to backend.
connection closed.

Well I almost always do... but the web terminal has saved my butt a while ago when I locked myself out of ssh due to a stupid mistake (don’t give me hell for that... learned my lesson)
Anyways this isn’t by any means a priority, so feel free to ignore it.
