    Well, the good news: GD finally installed after running: "/scripts/upcp --force"
    The bad news is that File-Scan-ClamAV-1.8 wont.
    But i have clamAv disabled due to high resources usage.
    Code:
    Removing previously used /home/.cpan/build/File-Scan-ClamAV-1.8
    
      CPAN.pm: Going to build C/CF/CFABER/File-Scan-ClamAV-1.8.tar.gz
    
      /usr/bin/make  -- NOT OK
    Running make install
      make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
    perlmod--Install done
    GD installed ok

    If anyone else stumbles across this here are the EXACT steps to do this. I have done it one freshly loaded RedHat 9 and one Productions RedHat 9 box that has been used for a couple of months. No problems with either yet. If any arise I will post.

    At the shell command prompt

    rpm -vv --rebuilddb

    rpm --import http://beta.centos.org/centos/3.4/os...G-KEY-CentOS-3

    rpm -U http://beta.centos.org/centos/3.4/os...3-4.2.i386.rpm

    yum upgrade

    yum update

    /scripts/upcp --force

    /scripts/exim4

    cat /etc/*release*
    (this should return CentOS release 3.4 (final)
    If it does

    shutdown -rf now

    Tada... when it comes back you are upgraded.

    You forgot the part about modifying your yum.conf so that your yum know's where to pick up those updates

    If you're using CPanel, remove those rpms (http, php, perl, etc) and their dependencies. You can reinstall perl using CPanel's setup, which is always better anyways.

    nope, this is a box with no control panel, i just want to make sure once i upgrade it i can have everything back to normal and working well

    so you would reccomend removing those then once centos is installed just reinstalling them?

    Yeah, if you can handle the sites being down for a few hours while the upgrade takes place

    hmm i can stand that on this server, since its just a test server, but any way around this downtime on a production server? or just have to suck it up and do this at a time that my customers wont be angry at lol

    also another question, can i do the straight upgrade from red hat 9 to centOS 4?
    Or should i do redhat 9 -> centos 3.1 -> centos 4?
    how would i do the upgrade from 3.1 to 4? any good guides?

    thanks

    Upgrading to 4.1 is tricky.. There are a few guides on the internet. But do to all the changes in 4 I DO NOT TRUST THEM. Theres just to much that can go wrong. You are changing from devfs to udev..
