cPanel Sync Server for cPaddons

[CoolMike]

Hi

I have a cPaddon which I would like to distribute to all my servers. Because there will be maybe a lot of updates later on, I would like to use the cPanel Sync Server instead of installing it manually on all the servers.

Unfortuantely the information on http://www.cpanel.net/docs/cpaddons/ are not correct. The script "/scripts/cpanelsync_build_cpaddons_dir" is at least on my servers not existing.

Where can I find this script, is someone using the Sync Server already?

Thanks
Michael

Did you install cPanel::SyncUtil via CPAN? That is where the script in question is.

I just did an install of the cPanel::SyncUtil located at
http://search.cpan.org/~dmuey/cPanel-SyncUtil-v0.0.3/lib/cPanel/SyncUtil.pm

I then did the Installation and it created the scripts cpanelsync_build_cpaddons_dir cpanelsync_build_dir 2

I created a cpaddons folder in the home directory of /home/USER/public_html/

Then a chmod 755 cpalensync_build_cpaddons_dir
then executed
./cpanelsync_build_cpaddons_dir -d /home/USER/public_html/cpaddons/ -u USER-a
bz2 -v VendorName

I get back
read_dir './cPAddonsAvailable' - opendir: No such file or directory at ./cpanelsyn
c_build_cpaddons_dir line 158

update:
I created the following folders in my cpaddons folder

cPAddonsAvailable cPAddonsMD5 and MyVendor

then in my MyVendor folder I placed my folder CMS and in it the Joomla folder the Joomla.pm

Now the script executes:

When I try to add the URL to the WHM I get
Url "http://DOMAINNAME.net/cpaddons/MyVendor/" did not work or was otherwise invalid.

I tried appending the CMS to the URL also as well as the CMS/Joomla and CMS/Joomla.pm

In the following documentation on page 19 I found a script which need to be called from WHM:
http://www.cpanel.net/docs/pdf/cpaddons/

I created all the files mentioned in the pdf, and when I add the URL in WHM I got the following:

Updating vendor config...
Adding Vendor MYNAME to your config...

So far it looks good, but when I update the cpaddon list, my addon ist not there.

I hope cpanelkenneth can help more.

Thanks
Michael

are you using the Add Remove Vendors URL ?

 

[CoolMike]

Exactly, there I entered the url to the perl script which is mentioned in the pdf file.

 

[asmithjr]

fr tge ND5_Sum_of_your_/cPAddonsMd5/vendor.pm what did you use?

 

[CoolMike]

I entered there the MD5 checksum of my vendor file:

Just enter:

md5sum cPAddonsMd5/vendor.pm

 

[asmithjr]

I must be missing something, not able to get the URL to take anything, rechecked the scripts.

hire someone to set this up

Is anyone interested in making a quick $75 to set this up ?

We have a cpAddon we want to distribute between our 35 or so servers
be easier to do it via cpAddons but need the sync server...

Please PM me.

thanks
