cPanel Update stuck and can't do anything

[peconi]

My sever has been working just fine, however, today I logged in to make sure cPanel is up to date - but the utility does not work.

When I click on Upgrade to Latest Verison - it doesn't even begin... The graphic progress bar is running but nothing happens what so ever.

Also, when trying to click on other modules within cPanel like (/cgi/cpaddons_report.pl) or any other link that ends in .pl - I get an option to download the file instead of server parsing the script...

Seems Perl is screwed up - but how do I fix it?

Thanks!

Log into your server via SSH and run:

/scripts/upcp

What happens?

This is the significant part with errors at the end of upcp:

Yes, perl is screwed up. Download Perl 5.8.8 again and install it.

 

[vanessa]

Try:

/scripts/checkperlmodules


You can also reinstall the specific modules that are missing, i.e:

/scripts/perlinstaller HTTP::Date

I would download the perl 5.8.8. installed from later2.cpanel.net and reinstall perl.

Thanks, reinstalling perl helped.
