Note that you can also use EasyApache by logging into the WHM interface, going to the “Software” section then clicking on “Apache Update.” Note that you may want to “Load Previous Config” as your first step to load your server’s existing configuration so you have a good idea of what is currently on the server as you customize Apache and PHP.

I’ve noticed that the script updatenow has been deprecated since the latest cPanel ver. 11 or perhaps earlier and maybe I’ve noticed it during these times.
In turn you may just rsync the /scripts/ directory manually using the rsync command.
