    Hi.

    I've received this error by mail:

    Code:
    Cron <root@alpha> /usr/bin/test -x /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/update_db_cache && /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/update_db_cache
    And after that, the server is offline:

    cPanel:

    WHM :

    Thanks.

    The servers has been restarted and all seems on-line now.
    But if this error came from Crontab, i think this could happen again ... :\

    Hello :)

    Please try running the following command manually:

    Code:
    # /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/update_db_cache
    This script is primarily used to update the disk space usage for your MySQL databases. Let us know if you experience any additional errors when running it manually.

    Thank you.

    In that case, I would not suspect this cron job is related to the downtime you experienced. Based on the error messages you provided, it's possible one of your partitions reached it's disk space limit.

    Thank you.

    I was uploading 12.000 files (246M at all) trough FTP when this happened.
    Can this be the reason ?

    I can't answer your question directly but, you really shouldn't want to upload so many files at one time in this way. And easier and faster way is to upload them all in a compressed archive and unpack on the server via File Manager.

    Yes you're right; when i say 'I', it was a user uploading his website (Joomla) whits 12.000 files.
    but the upload was made trough Filezilla (FTPeS) and with a max of 4 files at a time uploading.
