Try to suspending/unsuspended accounts from WHM

[PATRICIAF5]

I get the following error every time I try to modify any user quota or try to suspending/unsuspended accounts from WHM.

touch: cannot touch `/aquota.user': Permission denied

I tried to fix the quota on the server, but got same errors.

The problem you are facing because the aquota. User files don’t have the required permissions.

First check the permissions of aquota with following command :

lsattr /aquota.user

The output should be like

------------- /aquota.user

If you see permissions like following (or similar):

---a----i---- /aquota.user

Then the file is immutable

You can reset the permission of /aquota.user by using following command:

chattr -ia /aquota.user

It will solve the problem with quota for WHM/Cpanel.
