/scripts/upcp and force produces an error

Please try /scripts/upcp --force
Thank you

 

Hello,

Please try the following (from cPanel team)

wget -O /root/updatenow.static http://httpupdate.cpanel.net/cpanelsync/RELEASE/scripts/updatenow.static && perl /root/updatenow.static --manual

I then ran /scripts/upcp --force, it should work now.

 

Hello,

Should I try this solution in a server with accounts? Is there any risk for a not new server?

Thank you,

 

There is no risk in doing this on a live server. The reason for the issue is that the location of certain cPanel Perl modules was changed, and /scripts/upcp is written to look for them in the old location. The commands listed download a new updatenow.static, which updates other scripts such as upcp, so the Perl modules are loaded from the correct locations.

 

Thank you Jared!! It works!

 

Thanks Jared!

I just had a new client purchase a dedicated server and it had an older version of cPanel running (11.21), which I guess is because the datacenter just images it using a script, but I ran into the same error as everyone else above.

Fixing the perl modules to load from the correct location fixed the issue and I was able to get it to run upcp --force wihtout a hitch -- it's updating as we speak. =0)

Thanks!
