yum problem/easyapache/cpanel

Error : We have a server which seems to fail to start EasyApache. I get the following error :

!! The server's system package manager, 'YUM', failed. !!
!!
This is the command that failed:

Since EasyApache was unable to resolve it automatically you should:
1) Manually run the failed YUM command (shown above) via SSH
2) See if your particular error is addressed at http://www.cPanel.net/support/could_not_ensurepkgs.htm
3) Resolve the YUM problem manually
4) Re-run EasyApache

Solution : This error due the update openssl on the server

1) rpm -qa | grep openssl

openssl-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1

2) rpm -e  openssl-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1

3) You can update the yum by using the URL YUM UPDATE

yum update

4) Install openssl once again on the server

yum install openssl*

5) Then try to run your EasyApache on server.
