Cpanel DNSONLY tailwatchd failed

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011

My Cpanel DNSONLY (secondary DNS) server started to send errors by email few days ago.

tailwatchd failed @ Tue Jul 12 09:35:01 2011. A restart was attempted automagically.

It turns out that I needed to install MySQL for tailwatchd to work properly again (whatever that daemon does).

What I need to do :

  1. Remove /etc/mysqldisable
  2. /scripts/mysqlup –force
  3. /scripts/checkperlmodules
  4. /etc/init.d/cpanel restart
After that, you may check /usr/local/cpanel/logs/tailwatchd_log to be sure that there is no error message.
