When I try to restart cPanel services, I notice the following error message:
root@server [~]# service cpanel restart
Stopping tailwatchd:
!!
ATTENTION ATTENTION ATTENTION ATTENTION
Cpanel::TailWatch::Eximstats appears to have unprocessed SQL in /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql.
When mysql is unable to execute a query they are logged for processing later.
Eventually these SQL files may be handled automatically and this message will not appear.
In the meantime you can execute the queries as root with something like this:
mv /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql.tmp_working_copy
/usr/local/cpanel/libexec/tailwatchd --restart
mysql eximstats < /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql.tmp_working_copy
Once you are sure all is well you can remove /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql.tmp_working_copy

[Sat May 9 09:04:58 2009] Starting /usr/local/cpanel/libexec/tailwatchd daemon
Log is at /usr/local/cpanel/logs/tailwatchd_log
[ OK ]
I tried the steps mentioned in the error message and then the error message disappears:
mv /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql.tmp_working_copy
/usr/local/cpanel/libexec/tailwatchd --restart
mysql eximstats < /var/cpanel/sql/eximstats.sql.tmp_working_copy
However it is recurring the next day. I had forced updated cPanel and reinstalled Perl as well the previous day. Does anyone know what can be done to prevent it from recurring?
