Blank CP Login Screen after 7.5.1 to 7.5.3 upgrade

After trying to re-install psa via manual install one of the last messages i see is key registration failed.

Would / Could that cause the CP login page to go blank?

/tmp/psa_7.5.3_RedHat_el3_build75050506.13_installing.log
shows the same thing as i posted above when installing plesk.

Those were the only 2 logs in here.

In the old upgrade.log there was this error.

Key file not found!

so i ran up2date mrtg
says requires

upon searching i found that libgd.so.1.8 is in the GD library.
There was no update on up2date so i then went to rpmfind.net and did a search for GD

found ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/updates/enterprise/3ES/en/os/SRPMS/gd-1.8.4-12.3.1.src.rpm
which is the rpm src file so i downloaded it and rebuilt it.

rpmbuild --rebuild gd-1.8.4-12.3.1.src.rpm

which failed

so i then downloaded i386 for red hat 9

Error:
error: Failed dependencies:
gd = 2.0.28 is needed by (installed) gd-devel-2.0.28-1.30.1

sp i then forced the install of gd-1.8 since that was only place i could find the file i needed.
I then ran up2date mrtg and it worked
I then forced the install of gd-2.0.28-1.30.1 again it worked

I then went into auto updater AGAIN - FAILED

FINALLY GOT IT TO WORK

the command
rpm -Uvh --justdb psa-7.5.3-rhel3.build75050506.13.i586.rpm

worked for me. Of couse it then says i already had it installed to i then did this
rpm -Uhv --force --nodeps psa-7.5.3-rhel3.build75050506.13.i586.rpm

and it worked and i am now in latest version.

Now to see if everything else works
