Server crashes when I delete an account

[westhost-neil]

Hello,

I have a serious problem with deleting accounts in WHM. When I delete an account or remove a DNS record I see this:

Collecting Domain Name and IP....
User: myuser
Domain: myuser.co.uk
Killing all processes owned by user...Done
Cleaning passwd,shadow,group....Done
Removing User from Group....Done

and then it freezes. I've checked the output of the server using a serial console and this is what I get:

The above just repeats over and over with different processes and I have to remotley switch the server off and back on again.

Any help please.

Please ignore my previous post in a last ditch attempt I updated cPanel and all is ok for now.

I had the same thing happen to me 2 days ago, and I updated cpanel just a few days before that.
