When I create an account by the api, I enable authentication email DKIM and SPF, but my current raw SPF record is: "v = spf1 a mx? all".
.
How do I get "v = spf1 a mx -all" through the api?
I tried several ways and no success.
Could anyone help me?

We've been using David Neimeyer's API libraries from 2011 which were working great up to this point.

Are there any recommendations for an easy migration/upgrade path to a usable API now that API1 is deprecated that works as well as David's PHP library? ]]> cPanel Developers varr http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/migration-path-api1-after-cpanel-upgrade-11-36-a-343361.html Using security tokens in account creation script http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/using-security-tokens-account-creation-script-343251.html Mon, 06 May 2013 19:09:11 GMT Hello

I was using the following php script to create accounts

Code:

$script = "http://{$whm_user}:{$whm_pass}@{$whm_host}:2086/scripts/wwwacct";

$params = "?plan={$user_plan}&domain={$user_domain}&username={$user_name}&password={$user_pass}&contactemail=info@mydomain.com";

$result = file_get_contents($script.$params);



echo $result;

Now for security tokens I get an access denied error

Can anyone please post an updated working php script?

Thank you very much! ]]> cPanel Developers forx http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/using-security-tokens-account-creation-script-343251.html WHM Account Creation API Issue http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/whm-account-creation-api-issue-342941.html Sat, 04 May 2013 23:18:41 GMT I've been pulling my hair out on this all day, and I'm wondering if there's any chance there's a bug in the API.

We're on build 5 of WHM 11.36.1, and we're building our own management utility to handle back-end account creation, support, etc. We're using curl throughout our utility to surface account details and information from WHM and cPanel, with no issues at all, but we're seeing some very strange behavior when using the API to create accounts.

We automatically generate random 8 character usernames, and random secure passwords, which are pushed to the curl url during execution. We're doing this all behind https, using the WHM accesshash for authentication (just like all of our other curl calls).

PHP Code:


$newAcct = curl_init();
curl_setopt($newAcct, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST,0);
curl_setopt($newAcct, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER,0);
curl_setopt($newAcct, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($newAcct, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
$newAcctHeader[0] = "Authorization: WHM root:".preg_replace("'(\r|\n)'","",$accesshash);
curl_setopt($newAcct, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,$newAcctHeader);
curl_setopt($newAcct, CURLOPT_URL,"https://".$host.":2087/json-api/createacct?username=".$username."&plan=".$package."&password=".$password."&domain=".$domain);
$result = curl_exec($newAcct);
curl_close($newAcct);

if (strpos($result, "...Done") === false) {
    echo alert_bar('Error creating hosting account ('.$username.'). ('.$result.')','red');
}

Every single time we execute this, it tells us the username is already being used (and errors), but creates the account anyway. As an example...

The script generated a username of "ofme7bwe" and attempted to create an account for the domain "build.host.com". Neither the domain or user exists in the system. The script did create the account, but the output of the API shows it failed because of the user.

Code:

{"result":[{"options":null,"statusmsg":"Sorry, a group for that username already exists.","status":0,"rawout":null}]}

We're relying on the WHM API output to either halt or continue the configuration of the account, so this "false positive" is holding up the entire script even though it seems to successfully build the account.

Any thoughts? ]]> cPanel Developers webdes03 http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/whm-account-creation-api-issue-342941.html Will Perl be updated in cPanel? http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/will-perl-updated-cpanel-342901.html Sat, 04 May 2013 17:29:13 GMT Hello,

I was looking to see if I could find anything on if perl will ever be updated from 5.8? Like this post, I'd like to have at least 5.10 myself but I don't want to mess with the base install and because I use mod_perl, I think that would be the only way.

Perl 5.8.8 is almost 7 years old which makes me wonder if it would ever be updated.

Hello developers,

I just noticed this insane thing.

I have multiple servers:
domain1.com first NS - server itself, secondary - ns1.dnsonly.com
domain2.com first NS - server itself, secondary - ns1.dnsonly.com
domain3.com first NS - server itself, secondary - ns1.dnsonly.com

One DNSonly server:
ns1.dnsonly.com

I have set servers (domain1.com, domain2.com domain3.com) DNS clusters to "Synchronize changes" to ns1.dnsonly.com server (one way, right), and UNchecked " Setup Reverse Trust Relationship".

That means domain1.com, domain2.com domain3.com only outgoing changes to ns1.dnsonly.com right?
WRONG!

After some time domain1.com, domain2.com and domain3.com began sharing records.
When i make "Synchronize all zones to all servers" all zones are synchronized in all servers.

How? I do not provide ns1.dnsonly.com any access to servers.

"Synchronize all zones to all servers" is useful when more than one DNSonly server will come online, but i don't get how it syncs with other servers.

To be clear:
ns1.dnsonly.com - There are currently no servers in your DNS cluster.
And servers only with one arrow to the ns1.dnsonly.com .

Can anybody clarify this? ]]> cPanel Developers simonas http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/dnsonly-problem-342761.html cPanel::PublicAPI bugs http://forums.cpanel.net/f42/cpanel-publicapi-bugs-341711.html Mon, 29 Apr 2013 09:51:20 GMT Hello, there is a cPanel::PublicAPI (https://metacpan.org/module/cPanel::PublicAPI) module written in Perl, and it has some bugs reported on the RT CPAN page (https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=cPanel-PublicAPI).

This module is used in our organization, and it would be nice to see it production-ready and usable.

Or can anyone suggest a good alternative (or should we just write our own)?
