# pico -w /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Step 3: Search for the line:
Ctrl W then ScriptAlias /cpanel /usr/local/cpanel/base/redirect.cgi

ScriptAlias /cpanel /usr/local/cpanel/base/sredirect.cgi (simply change the redirect.cgi to sredirect.cgi)

Step 5: Search for the line:
Ctrl W then ScriptAlias /whm /usr/local/cpanel/base/whmredirect.cgi

Step 6: Edit the line to show the following:
