Error while updating cPanel

[blackystrat]

Hello

I was in the middle of updating the cPanel version on my VPS when I accidentally pressed ^C which killed the process

Now when I re-ran a force update, I got the message:-


Log opened from cPanel Update (upcp) - Slave at Mon Aug 15 14:31:31 2011
[20110815.143131] E Maintenance ended, however it did not exit cleanly (65280).Please check the logs for an indication of what happened

[20110815.143131] cPanel update completed
[20110815.143131] A log of this update is available at /var/cpanel/updatelogs/

Now when I try to login to any of our domains' cPanel via www.domain.com/cpanel/ I get a 404 not found error and while logging in through port 2082 I find all the icons missing from cPanel and the Cpanel version appearing blank

Please advise on how do I fix this

Thanks!

Please try the following:

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/updatenow.static --upcp --force
/scripts/upcp --force

If that doesn't work, then which cPanel version are you using? If it is RELEASE, please try the following:

wget -O /root/updatenow.static http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/cpanelsync/RELEASE/scripts/updatenow.static && perl /root/updatenow.static --manual
/scripts/upcp --force

If it is not RELEASE, then use the version you are on for the tier in question such as STABLE or CURRENT in the url string.

No deal. These commands didn't work. The logs are not any helping though... And now my cpanel service is going down frequently, and no updates are done...

If the update logs are not helpful in determining the cause of the issue, then please submit a ticket:

http://go.cpanel.net/supportrequest

I believe the part of the logs that's the biggest issue is likely this one:

Relocating /scripts to /usr/local/cpanel/scripts
tar: scripts: Cannot open: File exists
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

You could try checking the following:

cd /
ls -ld /scripts* && ls -ld scripts*
lsattr /scripts && lsattr scripts

Thanks!
