Thank you.

I have this too and now my nightly cron for upcp is not running, any ideas?

cheers

chmod

UPDATE..

looks like my upcp is still running as I get this message when running /scripts/upcp from command line
cPanel Update (upcp) is already running. Please wait for the previous upcp to complete, or kill off all upcp processes .

would kill -9 CROND stop the currently running upcp so that I can run it again?

Are you sure your server is resolving; your NS/DNS are configured properly?

cPanelKenneth · Nov 7, 2006

Versions of Compress::Zlib newer than 1.42 are broken, however it looks like upcp cannot locate version 1.42 on some mirrors (maybe wrong path?).

It also looks like the curl fallback has more issues as it fails and then the version number of the module gets passed as the hostname for the URL. Nice. I'll see what we can do about this today.

cgarvey · Nov 7, 2006

Yes, I got the same. The fix is to install the module yourself, manually, like I've to do with an ever increasing number of PERL modules cPanel can't seem to get right.

It's nothing to do with DNS as suggested earlier (I'd be worried if 1.42 resolved to anything!). I just simply ran

Code:

perl -MCPAN -eshell

and then in that shell did a simple

Code:

install Compress::Zlib

typing 'yes' when prompted did I want to install dependencies.

cPanel uses CPAN and has no control over any mirrors except the one we run. In fact we've worked directly with the authors of several modules to address bugs, so in actuality we are helping others "get it right"

We'll also diligently look into this and see what we can do.

cgarvey said:

It could if the mirrors wern't resolving, which is what they were addressing, not the version number error.

Code:

perl -MCPAN -eshall

and then in that shell did a simple

Code:

install Compress::Zlib

typing 'yes' when prompted did I want to install dependencies.

That will get it installed, but is it 1.42? As mentioned earlier the current version is broken which is why version 1.42 was held back for cPanel servers.

If you really want to do it manually grab http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/P/PM/PMQS/Compress-Zlib-1.42.tar.gz and install it as per its README file:

BUILDING THE MODULE
-------------------
Assuming you have met all the prerequisites, the module can now be built
using this sequence of commands:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test

INSTALLATION
------------

To install Compress::Zlib, run the command below:

make install

For those of you who are playing along at home:

That should read "-eshell" not "-eshall" BTW

and even easier way is to do it all at once:

perl -MCPAN -e 'install Whatever::Module;'

or even better:

/scripts/realperlinstaller Whatever::Module

which is the same thing but it handles the prompts for you and is more cPanel centric

Just FYI

cPDan · Nov 7, 2006

This should only be a problem on DNSONLY unless you havn't updated in a while.

(regex fixed in r1501 on Oct 3 so any build after that (See layer1.cpanel.net) should have it applied)

For DNSONLY folks here is a patch you can apply:

Getting these errors now too, and on our other server UPCP is still running, way behind schedule because of these errors supposedly. It just started today.

Just a bunch of that garbage through the whole upcp that finished this morning, about 3 hours late. Of the above replies, which exactly fixes this? I'm a bit confused.

I have the same error this morning. I am running auto updates on "Security Package Updates" only, in case that makes a diference to anyone at cPanel trying to solve this (probably not, but WTH...)

Am wondering what this means -

For DNSONLY folks here is a patch you can apply:

- what is DNSONLY?

Thanks

ryan.overton · Nov 8, 2006

This has also happened to me as well.

How do I kill the currently running upcp? If I do that, will it harm anything that is going on right now? will doing the above

Code:

/scripts/realperlinstaller

fix the issue?

Yes. as you see it try to download from 1.42 which is the version number of Compress:Zlib.

I 've tried to install manually but it doesn't help at all. upcp still trying to download that file.

Kiat.

Understood, but I was under the impression that upcp would only update modules that had undergone some testing in a cPanel environment. DBD, FileSpec, and others have all had to be installed manually of late.

cpdan said:

Perhaps I wasn't clear, but the fact that upcp is looking for host http://1.42/ is nothing to do with DNS/resolution setup. That's a bug somewhere in cPanel code (that the patch fixes).

cpdan said:

Ah, nope that command simply installs the latest (2.001). I had installed 1.42 manually, but then the method I quoted above installs the latest. I've tested, and can't find anything wrong with 2.001 (or find any reference on Google). Does it break cPanel functionality?

Man0warr · Nov 9, 2006

That patch didn't seem to work, still trying to download 1.42 from http://1.42/

Also installing 1.4 manually didn't help either.

This is really annoying, its causing upcp to finish so late on both our main servers.

netlook · Nov 12, 2006

Does anybody find a solution of this problem?

nottheusual1 · Nov 13, 2006

Bump

Any updates? 5 of 6 servers doing the same thing and none of the suggestions here seems to work on all of them.

Thanks.

Yeah this is still happening.
