Restart Services?

[jhyland87]

I am trying to make a script that will restart services via php. Here is what I have

PHP Code:

        $service = 'pureftpd';
        print $xmlapi-> restartsrv($service);
        echo "<br>";
        $service = 'proftpd';
        print $xmlapi-> restartsrv($service);
        echo "<br>";
        $service = 'ftpserver';
        print $xmlapi-> restartsrv($service); 


Here is what it returns

0 pureftpd No such service
0 proftpd No such service
0 ftpserver No such service

Any idea? I know im using pure-ftpd

pure-ftpd 0ff 1ff 2ff 3n 4ff 5n 6ff

In addition to the above, i was looking at RebootServer < AllDocumentation/AutomationIntegration < TWiki, but I couldnt figure out how to enforce the reboot.

PHP Code:

print $xmlapi-> restartsrv('graceful'); 


and

PHP Code:

print $xmlapi-> restartsrv(1); 


didnt seem to do the trick

anyone got any ideas for this one?

On this one - RestartService < AllDocumentation/AutomationIntegration < TWiki

So you should be passed "ftpd" into the service name.

Awesome, will try that, any idea on the full server reboot? Thats kind of a big one right now. I have an extra cpanel server, but only for a few days, I dont wanna test rebooting on a production server, lol

got it!

PHP Code:

$str = $xmlapi-> xmlapi_query('reboot', array('force'=>1));
