Solución a: Problema de actualización de cPanel “Needed system RPMs were not installed”

Hace unos días nos topamos con unos errores en nuestro repositorio de errores de WHM, el cual nos indicaba que existía un problema al actualizar la versión de cPanel.

El error sólo se daba sobre uno de nuestro servidores donde conviven, cPanel, Cloud Linux y CentOS, por lo que me eso reducía la búsqueda a una falla entre los 3 sistemas.

Los errores que recibíamos a nuestra cuenta de correo del host, eran:

“Updating to the latest version of cPanel & WHM 11.40 did not succeed. Basic requirements for cPanel & WHM were unable to be installed. The specific failure was:
Sysup: Needed system RPMs were not installed: screen

Lo que indicaba el error era un problema de RPM’s, que son las dependencias de terceros en cPanel & WHM.

Para solucionarlo encontramos 2 métodos:
1) Metodo sencillo, directamente se chequean y reparan las RPM’s

# /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/check_cpanel_rpms --fix
# /scripts/upcpLenguaje del código: PHP (php)

2) Cuando el método anterior no funciona, tendremos que reinstalar la fuente del problema, en este caso el LVE o Cloud Linux

# yum remove libwmf-lite lvemanager
# yum install lvemanager# /scripts/upcpLenguaje del código: PHP (php)
