Don’t you just hate it when upgrades go wroing 
I upgraded Apache to 2.2.8, MySQL to 5.0.45-community and PHP to 5.2.6 last night and, if you tried visiting here you know it did not go well :(. Before you can recompile Apache on a cPanel system it’s always advisable to upgrade cPanel first to the latest version. That’s where things went wroing [sic]. It seems there was problem with the MD5 hash on one of the update files and at that point my limited skills fell apart and I had to get the great support guys at work (RackForce) to fix the cPanel upgrade for me so I could recompile Apache. This all started because I wanted to add some more layers of security , in particular suhosin to harden PHP. In any case, I’m back, I’m sure much yo your great disappointment LOL.
fwiw: if any of you are familiar with CSF (ConfigServerFirewall) my rating is currently
0 to 21 > Wet Paper Bag
22 to 43 > Dry Paper Bag
44 to 65 > Wooden Box
66 to 87 > Brick Wall
88 to 93 > Reinforced Concrete
*This scoring is just a bit of fun and does not reflect the security of your server or the relative merits of each check
and no I won’t tell you which two items I haven’t fixed yet
