What do I do if the Terminal feature is missing from WHM?

Introduction

If you are unable to see the Terminal feature in WHM while logged in as the root user, it is likely due to this feature being disabled previously.

Procedure

If the Terminal was disabled you can check to see if this file exists on your server, /var/cpanel/disable_whm_terminal_ui 

1). Login to SSH as the root user.

2). Confirm the file exists with this command.

# ls -lah /var/cpanel/disable_whm_terminal_ui

If it exists you will see output similar to the following:

[root@server ~]cPs# ls -lah /var/cpanel/disable_whm_terminal_ui
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May  8 04:59 /var/cpanel/disable_whm_terminal_ui

If the file doesn't exist you will see output like this:

[root@server ~]cPs# ls -lah /var/cpanel/disable_whm_terminal_ui
/bin/ls: cannot access /var/cpanel/disable_whm_terminal_ui: No such file or directory

3). To remove the file you can run the following.

# rm -fv /var/cpanel/disable_whm_terminal_ui
