why dose it keep saying "cpsrvd failed"

cpsrvd failed @ Mon Dec 1 01:01:12 2008. A restart was attempted automagically.
Failure Reason: Unable to connect to port 2086
I keep getting this via email.. can someone tell me what it means?
I did do a search before posting and i found thread but not exactly the same port error issue.

It means your cpanel port isn't opened or cpanel is down. Is your cpanel working?

Yes my WHM/Cpanel works fine.. except the hostname keeps going to to the default assigned by FDC severs everytime this happeneds

If thus, then check your firewall settings, most likely it has an egress filtering for 2086 port. Cpanel monitoring script is not being able to connect with the port 2086 which is used by WHM.

Have you checked the port if its open or not?
Would you like to restart your cpanel?

@mellow-hI access Cpanel from that port so it's not blocked can it be something else?
@manojr I've restarted cpanle before no problems..

You can access cpanel , coz its working on 2082 are you sure that you have 2086 in your conf?
sorry if i am being too nosey , but just making sure.
What firewall are you using?

From the server you do telnet <server main ip> 2086
Also do iptables -nL | grep 2086
and check the size of /usr/local/cpanel/logs files by the command
du -sh /usr/local/cpanel/logs/*
what are the results you got??

It successfully connects via telnet on port 2086
Added the -nL | grep 2086 in SHH. as for the log I get this
3.9M /usr/local/cpanel/logs/access_log
0 /usr/local/cpanel/logs/cpdavd_error_log
0 /usr/local/cpanel/logs/cphulkd_errors.log
1.0M /usr/local/cpanel/logs/easy
0 /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log
56K /usr/local/cpanel/logs/license_log
0 /usr/local/cpanel/logs/login_log
4.0K /usr/local/cpanel/logs/stats_log
4.0K /usr/local/cpanel/logs/tailwatchd_log
