Getting a byte error log mail from whm/cpanel

[hariskhan]

Been receiving this mail for a week or two now;

Subject: Cron <root@cp> /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/cpaddons_report.pl --notify
From: "Cron Daemon" <root@my.server.com>
To: root@my.server.com

Byte order is not compatible at ../../lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into
../../lib/auto/Storable/fd_retrieve.al) line 349, at
/usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/cpaddons_report.pl line 218

;==========================================================

What causes this error? upcp runs automatic on the server, with the default factory settings from cpanel.

Hello,

No one seems to have seen this error before?

Should I put up an official ticket with cpanel support for them to look at it?

[chirpy]

I'd try installing that perl module first to be sure that isn't the issue:

/scripts/perlinstaller --force Storable

If you then still have a problem, then do log it through your cPanel license provider, or create a bugzilla entry if there already isn't one.

[hariskhan]

The server I'm getting these errors has 4 processors with 1 GB RAM on it.

This system has;

Processors 4
Model Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.00GHz
CPU Speed 2 GHz

I haven't checked so far, but I don't think these processors are 64 bit. Waiting for next log from cpanel to see how it went or what it caused. Fixing up the issue or creating new ones for me.
