How to Forcefully Reinstall cPanel

[Bharat]

All of that is useless steps.

/scripts/upcp --force

Is all you need to do the yum part has nothing to do with cpanel as cpanel forces all yum installs. The mail and mysql is reinstalled also via the upcp force install.

Useless in what way ?

Force an CentOS/Redhat Reinstall by: Create an empty directory: mkdir /tempreinstall CD into the new empty directory: cd /tempreinstall Force a Yum update: yum reinstall * delete the temp empty directory Rating: 5
