Hi @eduardo valdez,

Could you run the command manually as suggested in the previous post and let us know the output?

Thanks!

I've 68.0.12 and still get this error.
Please post the output from the following command:

Code:
/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/quotacheck
Thank you.

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/quotacheck

[quotacheck] Setting I/O priority to reduce system load: best-effort: prio 6
Are you sure cPanel updates are failing with the same error message as before? Try running this command again (replacing the log name with the most recent cPanel update log):

Code:
awk '$4=="E"' /var/cpanel/updatelogs/update.XXXXXX.log
Thank you.

Hi all. I started receiving emails about errors very similar to this a while back. My site seems to be functioning, but I want to make sure cPanel is updating properly. Maybe you all will be able to help me here. (Fair warning, I am still somewhat new to cPanel and website administration.)

I have ran upcp manually and logged the results in pastebin: cPanel: ucpc Output - Pastebin.com. I have also included the log file that results from running awk '$4=="E"' /var/cpanel/updatelogs/update.1515599754.log (see lines 610-612).

It seems my issue is not with quotacheck or cleanquotas as mentioned by others, but instead seems to be getting hung up on fixetchosts. When I attempt to run this manually, I get "The hostname vps is not valid." Possibly due to me running on a vps?

Thanks for your help!

Hello,

Is your hostname a fully qualified domain name (e.g. "host.domain.tld" and not just "host")? If not, you can use "WHM >> Change Hostname" to update it to match the requirements documented at:

Change Hostname - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Thank you.
