cpanel/whm + XMLAPI + error messages - help please!

[harshmallow]

Hi there.

I'm trying to create subdomains using cpanel api2 functions.

If i try and do something simple like

listaccts(); - this works fine.

If I try and do the subdomain creation, I get this error: (I've removed my exact directory structure from the error code)

	<b>Fatal error</b>: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'curl_exec threw error &quot;SSL read: error:1408F119:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:decryption failed or bad record mac, errno 0&quot; for https://myiphere:2087/xml-api/cpane...allowdot=0&amp;domain=testing&amp;rootdomain=[mydomain]&amp;cpanel_xmlapi_user=root&amp;cpanel_xmlapi_module=SubDomain&amp;cpanel_xmlapi_func=addsubdomain&amp;cpanel_xmlapi_apiversion=2' in /home/[user]/public_html/xmlapi.php:730

I've never used these APIs before, so I'm learning as I go... Many thanks! tasha

Update: after spending a whole day trying to get this to work and finally giving in and posting for help, I just tried giving the user for the domain root priveleges and now it seems to work. Whether this was the right way round or not, I don't know, but it works.

I do have another question however. My addsubdomain script redirects appropriately after creating the new subdomain.

However, the script with delsubdomain stops immediately after it has deleted the subdomain. There's more script to run after and addsubdomain is called again further down the page but it never gets there.

Has anyone encountered this sort of issue before?

Thanks in advance
