How to Fix /cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi in Cpanel

First, check the domain’s A record, check dns zone and use commands like host, dig A to get this.

Then search the virtualhost entry of that domain apache conf (/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf)

If he domain in question is “domain.com”, Search for domain.com in your apache conf. You can see some entries as follows.

——

<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:80>
ServerName domain.com
ServerAlias http://www.domian.com
DocumentRoot /home/domain/public_html

——

The domain is set to on 10.10.10.10 in apache conf, so the domain should have A record set to 10.10.10.10 and the domain should resolve to 10.10.10.10 from all around the world to get the wesbite, otherwise it will give cPanel default page.
