cPanel Update license file Failed! Print

  • 33

many issues is like the title suggests. However, I have tried the following suggestions from this page (https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/Installation+Guide+-+Troubleshoot+Your+Installation#InstallationGuide-TroubleshootYourInstallation-Licenseerrors) with no results.

1.) curl -L http://cpanel.net/showip.cgi (shows my ip address on the server for use on the verify.cpanel.net script), this can be verified also here... (http://verify.cpanel.net/index.cgi?ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xx) (I don't like showing my IP, but trust me it was verified.)

2.) /usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt Updating cPanel license...Done. Update Failed! Error message: A License check appears to already be running. Building global cache for cpanel...Done

So the above didn't work.

I then tried these commands.

3.) /usr/local/cpanel/etc/init/stopcpsrvd and then /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/upcp --sync to attempt to resynchronize.

This appears to successfully run but I still get the same error. Attached below is the error message I get when I attempt to login to WHM.

4.) I then tried running rdate -s rdate.cpanel.net as suggested in some other posts to have the times match up and then when I run (/usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt) it seems to time out and nothing ever happens.

Looking at the logs for the cpanel license (/usr/local/cpanel/logs/license_log) I see this.

fineali : /scripts/check_cpanel_rpms

 

now update your cPanel license 

 

If you did not make these changes intentionally, execute the following command as the root user to correct them:

 

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/check_cpanel_pkgs --fix
