get a apache 500 error and redirects to domain.com/public after changing SSL cipher

Hi, I tried to update or change the SSL cipher in my WHM via Apache Configuration->Global Configuration. But after the update my main home pages are being redirected to the wrong url. The home pages and other pages now are no longer working. But sub-directories are working. For instance, when I go to: domain.com it forwards me to: domain.com/public And testthis.domain.com forwards me to testthis.domain.com/public It shouldn't be doing that. Don't know what WHM does in the back but it shouldn't be messing around with the folders of a site because of an SSL configuration change. I tried to change things back but WHM doesn't fix it back to the original state. :( This page properly gets forwarded though: secure.domain.com/ to ecure.domain.com/diy/login/login.php The index.php for secure.domain.com is simply a redirect to the latter. And this site works properly still: otherdomain.com/ (it's supposed to be a blank page) I checked in my httpd.conf settings and I have this for the domain.com site:
ServerName domain.com ServerAlias 47.201.173.in-addr.arpa www.47.201.173.in-addr.arpa www.domain.com DocumentRoot /home/myultrat/public_html ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.com UseCanonicalName Off CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.com combined CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.com-bytes_log "%{%s}t %I .\n%{%s}t %O ." ## User myultrat # Needed for Cpanel::ApacheConf UserDir enabled myultrat suPHP_UserGroup myultrat myultrat SuexecUserGroup myultrat myultrat RMode config RUidGid myultrat myultrat # For more information on MPM ITK, please read: # http://mpm-itk.sesse.net/ AssignUserID myultrat myultrat ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/myultrat/public_html/cgi-bin/ Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2_2/myultrat/*.conf"
I don't see anything wrong with that config. Anyone know what happened?

    I figured it out. Thank the Lord. Was really stressful. For some reason when I went to the Apache Configuration->Global configuration and changed the SSL Cipher I had to rebuild the Apache conf. But what WHM did was add this line on some (not all the FQDNs): Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2_2/myultrat/*.conf" Creating a backup vhost.conf and appended /public/ directory as the Document Root to what was previously: DocumentRoot /home/myultrat/public_html/testthis In other words, that line became DocumentRoot /home/myultrat/public_html/testthis/public Strange. Or perhaps that was there before. Whatever the case, the WHM Apache added to some of the FQDN's this line: Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2_2/myultrat/*.conf" So I change some of my vhost and created a default for the domains that were affected by adding the line: Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2_2/myultrat/domain.com/*.conf" So now I have this on some of the FQDNs:
    ServerName domain.com ServerAlias 47.201.173.in-addr.arpa www.47.201.173.in-addr.arpa www.domain.com DocumentRoot /home/myultrat/public_html ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.com UseCanonicalName Off CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.com combined CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.com-bytes_log "%{%s}t %I .\n%{%s}t %O ." ## User myultrat # Needed for Cpanel::ApacheConf UserDir enabled myultrat suPHP_UserGroup myultrat myultrat SuexecUserGroup myultrat myultrat RMode config RUidGid myultrat myultrat # For more information on MPM ITK, please read: # http://mpm-itk.sesse.net/ AssignUserID myultrat myultrat ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/myultrat/public_html/cgi-bin/ #Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2_2/myultrat/*.conf" Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2_2/myultrat/domain.com/*.conf"
    I hope this helps someone out there. :)

    Hello, I am happy to see that your issue is resolved. Do you have any custom applications installed that would have changed the default Apache configuration (e.g. LiteSpeed, Nginx)? The default include entry in the VirtualHost is commented out. Thank you.
