The cPanel & WHM software depends on a functional Perl installation on the server. If the Perl installation has an issue, it will cause all kinds of different errors as some tasks will not complete. If you see any errors that mention Perl on your cPanel installation, we would recommend using the following scripts to help correct it.

Command(s):

/scripts/fix-cpanel-perl
(Should produce no output)

/scripts/check_cpanel_rpms --fix
(To ensure all rpms are present for the cPanel & WHM installation.)
