Cause
Some parameters (particularly FTP passwords) are not propagated from WHM (WebHost Manager) to cPanel and that prevents the publishing process from occurring normally if the WHM admin is performing it.
Resolution
Make sure that you are logged into cPanel directly as a customer by using the customer username and password and that you are not using the option login to cPanel from WHM > Account Information > List Accounts
