upcp generates some new errors..

[PPNSteve]

last few runs of cpup has been generating new errors in the ftp update and IMAP server check:

anyone?

come on, would like to figure this one out.. and fix it.

another report @ http://forums.cpanel.net/f5/ftp-serv...or-166470.html

This page:

Scalar::Util - search.cpan.org

hints that the Perl module Scalar::Util may have been installed when the C compiler was not available or not working for some reason. I base this on the following:

Scalar::Util contains both perl and C implementations of many of its functions so that those without access to a C compiler may still use it. However some of the functions are only available when a C compiler was available to compile the XS version of the extension.

At present that list is: weaken, isweak, dualvar, isvstring, set_prototype

Try reinstalling Scalar::Util with /scripts/checkperlmodules:

# /scripts/checkperlmodules --force

Lastly, run checkperlmodules:

# /scripts/checkperlmodules --force

If, after doing this, the error persists, I recommend submitting a ticket so that we may investigate the issue directly.

[PPNSteve]

ran it twice.. it first reported:

perlmod--Install done
Using fast module check.....checked 140 modules in 2 second(s)
Tested 140, 140 ok, 0 failed.

Then the second time reports:

perlmod--Install done
Using fast module check.....checked 121 modules in 2 second(s)
Tested 122, 122 ok, 0 failed.

Will run upcp now to see what happens..

Ok, looks like that forced reinstall did fix it:

thanks so much for the assist..

[cPanelJared]

You are most welcome. Please let us know if it recurs or if you see any other unusual errors in the upcp runs.

[PPNSteve]

Will do.

thanks again,

Got the same error on a large amount of machines as well. Didnt try if the force does work though, but there seems to be something wrong in general.

[PPNSteve]

IIRC there was a minor perl update a day or 2 before, then a WHM update right after.. thats when it triggered.

[rainboy]

Tested the above on 1 of the failed machines, and it did work; now working on the others. Glad this at least solves the issue.

Thank you.
