Hello,

I am upgrading my plesk cp 3 to version 4 on my centos 4 linux server. However, every intent I have made returns the following message at the end of the email. Have not found any information in the forum or the install guide.

It's happening here, too. This is what up2date says:

up2date -u psa-hotfix4

No.

What I did to fix this was download the full install package and manually install the RPM that was failing. This enabled the rest of the upgrade to go smoothly, and I am currently without any issues on this box.

To just install the 1 failing hotfix from the autoinstall site with out checking for dependencies:

rpm -i http://autoinstall.plesk.com/PSA_8.4.0/dist-rpm-RedHat-el4-i386/base/psa-hotfix4-8.4.0-rhel4.build84080514.18.i586.rpm --nodeps

After that, I was able to successfully run the updater from within the web interface.
