    Hello, I found some unauthorized entries under mysql remote access and I'm looking to upgrade WHM. When I try doing so, I get this error at 17%:

    Code:
    Running `/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/updatenow --upcp --log=/var/cpanel/updatelogs/update.1478799788.log` failed, exited with code 1 (signal = 0)
    A couple FATAL errors show:
    Code:
    [20161110.095242] W Exit Code: 254
[20161110.095242] ***** FATAL: Test install failed:     package cpanel-perl-514-5.14.4-4.cp1146.x86_64 is already installed
    Code:
    [20161110.095242]   The Administrator will be notified to review this output when this script completes
[20161110.095242] ***** FATAL: Error testing if the RPMs will install: Test install failed:     package cpanel-perl-514-5.14.4-4.cp1146.x86_64 is already installed
    I have tried via the CLI, and I have tried forcing the update, nothing is working.

    Hello,

    Try running the following command to ensure there are no duplicate RPMs:

    Code:
    /scripts/autorepair fix_duplicate_cpanel_rpms
    Thank you.

    Hi, I ran that, and it did find some duplicates. But that didn't solve the problem, now I have a different error:

    Hello,

    This isn't a package that's installed with cPanel by default. Are you using it for any specific purpose? If not, you can remove the sendmail-cf package on your system with a command such as:

    Code:
    rpm -e --nodeps sendmail-cf-8.14.4-9.el6_8.1.noarch
    Otherwise, try temporarily adding the following entry to the "exclude=" line in your /etc/yum.conf file:

    sendmail-cf*

    This should address the YUM error, which you can then proceed to investigate further after the cPanel update completes.

    Thank you.
