cPanel & WHM update failure in upcp script
Hello, I've gotten this email message from my WHM/Cpanel server (CENTOS 7.6 v82.0.15):
When I search for this error in the forums, I see a few posts that suggest I run: Run "yum install git --disableexcludes=main --skip-broken" Once that is done, run "/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/rpmup" which I did, but this didn't fix the issue. Now when I run rpmup, it ends with this error:
At this point, I'm not sure what to do next. There seems to be two broken packages and I don't know how to fix them. Any pointers?
The cPanel & WHM update process failed for the following reason:
Maintenance ended; however, it did not exit cleanly (256). The following events were logged: "scripts/rpmup". Review the update logs to determine why the update failed.

I see the same error. I removed mod_fcgi, this time it gives kmod error. Unable to make Easyapache 4 updates. 0 -

Does it persist if you run the following: yum clean all0 -
Does it persist if you run the following:

Yes, tried: yum clean all and /scripts/upcp --force and the same error still persists when update gets to "/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/rpmup":Error: Package: mod_fcgid-2.3.9-6.el7.x86_64 (base) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem ** Found 2 pre-existing rpmdb problem(s), 'yum check' output follows: mod_fcgid-2.3.9-4.el7_4.1.x86_64 has missing requires of httpd-mmn = ('0', '20120211x8664', None) 2:postfix-perl-scripts-2.10.1-7.el7.x86_64 has missing requires of postfix = ('2', '2.10.1', '7.el7') info [rpmup] Completed yum execution "--assumeyes --config /etc/yum.conf update" (XID 4n4uyv) The system failed to execute yum with the arguments "--assumeyes --config /etc/yum.conf update"/usr/bin/yum --assumeyes --config /etc/yum.conf update" Requires: httpd-mmn = 20120211x8664 checkyum version 22.3 (excludes: bind-chroot ruby)0 -
Looking further into this, the specific mod_fcgid package you have is unsupported by cPanel - you should have the ea-apache24_mod_fcgid
package installed to be compatible. If you remove mod_fcgid and install the correct package are you able to update again?0 -
How would I go about doing that? I've not messed with manually replacing stuff that Cpanel installed. 0 -
You should be able to just run: yum remove mod_fcgid
then run:yum install ea-apache24-mod_fcgid0 -
You should be able to just run:
yum remove mod_fcgid

it appears to me that the new fcgid and ruid2 are conflicting and that postfix is still missing a requirement.0 -
allrighty, well, it's past midnight and the Cpanel/WHM update went off ok without sending me a message about rpmup failing, so I think maybe it's fixed. I'll check again in the morning and verify, but I've checked all the sites on the server and they're still running. (: 0 -
The biggest part there is that ea-apache24-mod_ruid2 and ea-apache24-mod_fcgi conflict - you won't be able to have them installed at the same time. 0 -

what is "ea-apache24-mod_ruid2" for, exactly? I have a couple of sites running under PHP-CGI, so I think I need "ea-apache24-mod_fcgi" (although they are running ok now, so maybe I don't??). I'm not at all sure what I should be installing/uninstalling to keep the server running with the modules that cpanel needs - normally cpanel itself has been taking care of this automatically, and I'm not at all sure why it stopped. ):0 -
ea-apache24-mod_ruid2 is the name of the mod_ruid2 module provided from the easyapache4 repository. mod_ruid2 information can be found here: mind04/mod-ruid2 mod_fcgid is different than the cgi php handler. Information on ea-apache24-mod_fcgid can be found here: Apache Module: FCGId - EasyApache 4 - cPanel Documentation and on the ea-apache24-mod_cgi handler here: PHP Handlers - EasyApache 4 - cPanel Documentation 0 -

huh, ok - if I'm understanding this documentation right, then I'm probably using mod_fcgid if most of my sites are currently using PHP-FPM. If I can't install it, then I should be switching the PHP-FPM setting in MultiPHP Manager for those sites to "off" before I reboot the server or they will stop working - is that correct? This documentation is apparently suggesting that I shouldn't be using PHP-FPM at all, since I don't grok how to fine-tune it anyway.0 -
Hi @tmunk huh, ok - if I'm understanding this documentation right, then I'm probably using mod_fcgid if most of my sites are currently using PHP-FPM.
Can you clarify what you mean by this? The documentation on FCGId notes the following: [QUOTE] EasyApache 4 supports FCGId on system without a PHP-FPM implementation.
I think there might be some confusion in the mod_proxy_fcgi module and mod_fcgid which are different.his documentation is apparently suggesting that I shouldn't be using PHP-FPM at all, since I don't grok how to fine-tune it anyway.
Can you clarify where you're seeing this in the documentation I sent to you? I only see that it's recommended you be an advanced system administrator for use with the FCGI daemon (mod_fcgid) [QUOTE]- We recommend the mod_fcgid Apache module only for advanced system administrators who understand how to modify the performance of the mod_fcgid Apache module.

Well, I'm not sure I understand why, but the server seems to run fine without mod_fcgid installed, and the error messages have stopped. I guess the answer was just to uninstall the incompatible package and not install the compatible one, so in the end the proper answer was: run "yum remove mod_fcgid" Thanks! (: 0
