Title: cpanel -> cwp migration issue
Post by: logmein345 on February 10, 2020, 08:34:43 AM
I am looking to switch from cpanel and was hoping to make the move to cwp but I am struggling to get the migration to work. It just gives a pop up saying "Connection not reached  the following error occurred." nothing other than that. When looking on my cpanel server I am getting the following:

Feb 10 03:18:30 cp-prod01 sshd[25120]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=xxx.xxx.40.139  user=root
Feb 10 03:18:32 cp-prod01 sshd[25120]: Failed password for root from xxx.xxx.40.139 port 34082 ssh2

I have check and checked again and found no issues with the password. I have even tried setting new ones and testing with no luck. I also tested ssh to cwp then from cwp to my cpanel server and that works fine. Anyone have anything else I should check?

Best to generate an rsa key and use it instead of a password.

I had the same problem, the support team has already solved it on my server. They told me that it is fixed in the next update.

I do have keys setup is there a way to do the migration that way? I usually never use password based logins for ssh but I did not see another way of running it.

port 34082
Opened on both firewalls?
SSH Password Authorization Tweak enabled (temporarily) in WHM?
/root/.ssh/authorized_keys added on WHM, for the CWP box?
Port 2304 opened on CWP?

Already did the tweak adjustment, I can ssh from whm box to cwp via password or keys they both work. port 34082 is the dynamic port negotiated so no need to open there. I know there is nothing blocking it as that is the sshd logs from whm seeing it. It just always shows incorrect password no matter what I put in.

It's not FTP - ssh uses a static port, which should be allowed at both ends. However if you can ssh in via shell, then that appears to be setup OK.
IF I get time later today, I'll do a test migration. At the moment, I'm fighting with a CWP->CWP email migration!

Have tried to setup the transfer, to no avail. In other words I can concur that it doesn't work. I've previously advised to scp a backup from WHM to CSP,then restore it.

This command on the new cwp server solved the problem for me:
     ssh-copy-id root@my.cpanel.server.ip

After this command, you should be able to ssh to the cPanel server without being prompted for a password.
