I'm managing a Rails website that relies on MySQL tables. I used to be able to access the tables with Webmin by going to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10000 . At some point, I lost the ability to access it this way.

I'm not great with SSH, but I was able to SSH into my website as a general user. Then, I switched to Root user. Then, I ran this command to restart my Webmin:

svcadm restart webmin

It seemed to accept the command, but I'm not really sure how to check. Anyway, I started getting a new error message when I tried to access Webmin through my browser:

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

The website uses a connection with Cloudflare. My guess was that this could be the problem since Cloudflare doesn’t support port 10000. I tried deactivating Cloudflare, but it didn't resolve the problem.

Still, I figured I might need to use SSH to change the port for Webmin access just in case. I found a source that suggested how to do it, and it starts with SSH. I went in through SSH and I switched to Root user. Then, I ran this command:

/etc/webmin/miniserv.conf

And it tells me

bash /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf Permission denied

How can I get past this step? Am I headed the wrong direction to get access back to Webmin? Thank you!
