Hello!

It seems that after v84.0.13 cPanel update the CWAF plugin is broken, accessing it’s control panel returns error 500. Reinstall doesn’t help

Browser error:

Hi
Can you try this?

SSH to your server and go to /var/cpanel/cwaf/tmp/
cd /var/cpanel/cwaf/tmp/
mkdir install
cd install
wget https://waf.comodo.com/cpanel/cwaf_client_install.sh
bash /var/cpanel/cwaf/tmp/install/cwaf_client_install.sh – --update --mode cpanel
cd …
rm -rf install
cd /var/cpanel/cwaf/scripts
./updater.pl
./update-client.pl

Hello!

The interface is now working, but currently the only option under catalog is to edit Global config. Is there any way to edit (via GUI) specific domains as it was possible before?

Best Regards.

Hi,
the issue is currently in the developers’ backlog and no ETA so far.
We suggest reinstalling plugin in standalone mode.
