    Do you already have a symlink of /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/redhat pointing to /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/centos ?

    Here is what I see:

    According to this, you are updated to 11.50.0.9 now. Are you still experiencing issues?

    No other issues noted, WHM says its WHM 11.50.0 (build 9) Just weird that it generates this error on every few upcp runs, but still updates.

    Just for the lolz (and obviously for some troubleshooting on the side!), run
    /scripts/upcp --force
    Then, if you the error occurs, upload the log file. I'll take a closer look with you. :)

    Hello, Could you verify if the symbolic link for /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/redhat now exists? Thank you.

    Not actually seeing any symlinks, but the proper path is there as far as I can tell. Where EXACTLY is this symlink entry suppose to be??? we are still getting error notices on every run of script "up to date" during upcp (cron or manual) Here is the last part of the latest log entry:

    Can you run the two following shell commands:
    # cd /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts # ls -la
    You should see something similar to below:
    total 24 drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 May 26 10:44 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 26 10:44 ../ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 26 10:44 centos/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16 Mar 4 13:26 cpservices.yaml lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 May 26 10:44 redhat -> centos/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 26 10:44 systemd/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 4 13:34 templates/
    In particular, do you see this line? (Is it exactly like this? ("redhat -> centos"))
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 May 26 10:44 redhat -> centos/
    That will tell us if the symlink already exists.

    As previously noted, this is what I see there:
    root@svr4 [/usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts]# ls -al total 28 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Apr 13 17:39 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 20 22:22 ../ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 20 22:22 centos/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16 Apr 13 17:37 cpservices.yaml d--------- 2 root root 4096 May 20 22:21 redhat/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 20 22:21 systemd/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 13 17:39 templates/
    So no the symlink isn't there

    Feel free to open a support ticket using the link in my signature so we can take a closer look. You can post the ticket number here so we can update this thread with the outcome. Thank you.

    This issue was being caused by /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/redhat existing as an empty directory with 000 permissions assigned to it. The resolution was to move away /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/redhat and then run a forced cPanel update: /scripts/upcp --force

    Hello, Does "/usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/redhat" exist as an empty directory again or is it still a symbolic link? Thank you.

    It is still a symlink:
    root@svr4 [/usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts]# ls -al total 28 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Jun 9 19:06 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 20 22:22 ../ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 9 16:41 centos/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16 Apr 13 17:37 cpservices.yaml lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Jun 9 19:06 redhat -> centos/ d--------- 2 root root 4096 May 20 22:21 redhat.BAK/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 20 22:21 systemd/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 13 17:39 templates/
    I'm not sure what's causing the error now but it's happening right at the beginning of the update run, and all the rest of the tasks seem to finish just fine.

    just had another sever recently (Tuesday 16June) update to 11.50.0.10 and it's also throwing this generic error. That server doesn't use a staging DIR and has previously updated without issue. It has to be something in one of the update scripts added during the update to 11.50.0.10

    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 May 26 10:44 redhat -> centos/
    This is my "redhat" symlink. Notice that the file permissions are: lrwxrwxrwx
    As previously noted, this is what I see there:
    root@svr4 [/usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts]# ls -al total 28 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Apr 13 17:39 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 May 20 22:22 ../ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 20 22:22 centos/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16 Apr 13 17:37 cpservices.yaml d--------- 2 root root 4096 May 20 22:21 redhat/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 20 22:21 systemd/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 13 17:39 templates/
    So no the symlink isn't there

    Your redhat folder shown above is only d---------... I advise going through your servers and ensuring that they all have the correct permissions. If that does not work, I advise moving your redhat folder away as cPanelMichael said and then running the update.
    /scripts/upcp --force

    On the sever where cPanelMichael logged in and moved the redhat DIR it is still showing as an error early in the upcp process. no idea what's causing it as there are no other errors noted in the log. Now a new server is showing this early error, I'm pretty sure it doesn't have the symlink issue (but will double check). I will update this again after a look at the links, as noted.

    also note: I have reopened the support ticket as this same error is showing up on multiple servers including ones without a staging DIR or missing symlinks.

    E Failed to create symlink /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/redhat -> centos: File exists

    Internal case number number 194021 is open to track how often this happens. I've linked this thread to that case. The workaround is to remove "/usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/scripts/redhat" and force an update of cPanel via "/scripts/upcp --force". E The install encountered a fatal error:Up to date
    It's safe to ignore this message if there are no additional errors. Internal case number 189853 addresses this false report. Thank you.
