Hello,

Last night our server updated a raft of alt-php and EA-php packages across multiple PHP versions.

The web server is up and operating as expected and serving content, however; since that upgrade and httpd restarting we're seeing the following errors reported to the LFD log:

Jun  9 21:55:23 lfd[833327]: STATS: Unable to retrieve Apache Server Status [http://127.0.0.1/whm-server-status?auto&key=REDACTED] - Unable to download: Not Found

  I don't have LFD/CSF, but i also can see that issue, with the Apache Status showing:
  "Failed to receive status information from Apache.
  Unable to connect to local httpd server."

  Apache, however, is working fine.

  The link was left i think by mistake.

  You only need to run:

  /scripts/rebuildhttpdconf
  /scripts/restartsrv_httpd
