Hey all,

When cPanel installs, does it log anything anywhere? We have the following on our screen and they've been going for hours now...

Code:

Not sure if there's a log file for cpins, but anyone? I've never asked before - funny enough - with many hundreds of installs under my belt!

Thanks man,

Jamie

/var/log/cpanel-install-thread1.log


if it does not say
"cPanel install finished at:"

then it has not finished or is hung up somewhere

Go on, have a guess
It uses both thread logs, so it's:

/var/log/cpanel-install-thread0.log
/var/log/cpanel-install-thread1.log

It can sometimes take a very long time depnding on the speed of the mirror you've picked up. If it does this, check ps output and/or use strace on the process(es) to see if it's slowly doing something.
