Last 3 nights or so I get a cron email saying:

QUOTE

cPanel Update (upcp) is already running. Please wait for the previous upcp to complete, or kill off all upcp processes and try again. You may wish to use '--force' at /scripts/upcp line 48.

Loud and clear what's happening, however I can't seem to kill upcp or run it again. ps aux lists it as defunct, along with an exim process, so killing them is a no-go. Anyone else with this problem?

Just to update - had to kill -9 CROND (yes, uppercase) and run /scripts/upcp.
All well now.
