How do I repair an RPM Database via WHM?

Answer

A corrupt RPM database can cause a myriad of issues related to package management. Software such as EasyApache4 and YUM will also not work until the RPM database is in a functional state. Due to this, one of cPanel & WHM's tasks during update sessions includes performing a check of the database and attempting a repair if needed. However, sometimes you may need to run this process manually.

1. Log in to WHM as root.
2. Navigate to Home / Software / Rebuild RPM Database
3. Click the Proceed button
