Audio Player not working after switch from cPanel to CWP

Post by Cunjabo »

I have a website that used to work just fine. But since I decided to leave cPanel (because it gets more expensive and more limited every quarter) for CWP, the audio does not work anymore. I have several Media Players on my website (HTML5 Audio), I can see them load on startup, but then quickly after that, I see the play button turn grey, and I can't play the files. I have not changed anything to the website itself. I only replaced cPanel with Centos Web Panel.

Maybe the server does not support the names of your audio files?
This may be helpful:

If you need further assistance then please provide a DEMO.

So I shortened the mp3 files to numbers, but unfortunately, that had no effect. I have uploaded the original again.

When asked for a "Demo" it is a copy "Basic" project file the .wbs not a url... But a quick view of the source shows that the files are invalid as they have special characters in then you should not use @ in them. It may have previously worked in your old hosting but may be restricted in CWP

Are you sure the audio files are on the server?

The files cannot even be played outside the player:

Hi there and thank you for the response :-) As I said before, I also tried it with files numbered 1.mp3. That did not work either.

And that's the whole thing. They are on the server. Could it be a firewall thing?

It may be a server restriction.
Did you contact the webhost?

As previously the file names are invalid come are using a mixture if uppercase and lowercase they have @ and . within them.
Filenames should be all lowercase and not use@ or . in them

Code: Select all

No that can't be the problem. I created an mp3 file named 1.mp3. That did not work either, plus the filename "https://stemacteur.life/sounds/sinterkl ... 002819.mp3" always worked in the past.

I doubt it has anything do with the programme/software or the Audio Player used it will be a issue on the server CWP. Have you reached out to them as they may have a restriction on using mp3 or file names as already mentioned.

I managed to get the mp3 from the last url you gave and it played in soundcloud. This tells me it is a fault with CWP and a configuration issue so would suggest you need to contact them.

I found the reason why it did not play the audio files. It had to do with Mod_Security and the rules. Thanks a lot btw :-)
