Troubleshooting Owl v4 Stats Data Not Loading for Some Servers

If Owl v4 statistics graphs are not loading for one or more servers in the WebUI, this is almost always caused by one of the following two issues.

Common Causes

  • Hostname mismatch: The server hostname does not match what cPFence expects. Owl relies on consistent hostnames to collect and display statistics correctly.

  • Passwordless SSH is not configured correctly: The main control panel must be able to connect to the affected server via SSH without a password. If SSH access fails or prompts for a password, Owl cannot collect data.

How to Fix

  1. Verify that the server hostname is set correctly and matches the expected value. You can follow the hostname setup guidance below:
    How to set up the correct hostname

  2. Confirm that passwordless SSH from the main control panel to the affected server is working as expected.

  3. Once both are confirmed, restart the WebUI:

    cpfence --restart-webui

After restarting the WebUI, allow a few minutes for Owl v4 data to start populating again.
