Cannot overwrite account on Remote Root Account Transfer

[pedrovnascimento]

Hello There,


Im trying to transfer accounts using PHP and WHM API 1 Functions:

enqueue_transfer_item


Although I implemented every overwrite option for the module AccountRemoteRoot, when I review the completed session, I get the error saying that the user already exists:



I want to be able to overwrite through the API, the same way I can by the checkbox "Overwrite" on the WHM Transfer Tool functionality.
The parameters I'm using when calling the API:

$settings = array(
         'api.version'=> '1',
         'transfer_session_id' => $this->transferSessionId,
         'module'=>'AccountRemoteRoot',
         'user' => $this->accountUsername,
         'localuser' => $this->accountUsername,
         'detected_remote_user' => $this->accountUsername,
         'domain' => $this->accountDomain,
         'replaceip' => 'all',
         'xferpoint' => '1',
         'overwrite_sameowner_dbs' => '1' ,
         'overwrite_sameowner_dbusers' => '1' ,
         'skiphomedir' => '0' ,
         'skipacctdb' => '0' ,
         'force' => '1' ,
         'skipaccount' => '0' ,
         'overwrite_with_delete' => '1' ,
        );

How can I force an overwrite?

Thank you.

Are either of the following true as you're unable to use the force flag in the following settings:

• You called the WHM API 1 create_remote_root_transfer_session function with the unrestricted_restore parameter set to 1.
• The localuser parameter does not match the user parameter.

I also want to note that if you're not using v88 this parameter most likely won't be recognized:

overwrite_with_delete

Note:

• Only use this parameter for the AccountRemoteRoot and AccountRemoteUser modules.
• We added this parameter in cPanel & WHM version 88.

I'm sure I set create_remote_root_transfer_session right.


overwrite_with_delete returns a error. How can I force the use of v88 ? Not sure how to set this.

Thank you for replying.

You'd have to set the server to use EDGE - which really isn't recommended for production but if you want to set it you can do so at WHM>>Server Configuration>>Update Preferences
