Delete account from command line

[max_payne]

Hi,

What is the new command to terminate accounts? Before, /scripts/killacct used to work. This is no longer available on new versions.

It's still in the docs:
The /scripts/killacct Script - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Definitely looks to be missing on CentOS 7 servers. I have checked a handful. Any testing CentOS 7 servers on your end you could check this on?

Hello

It's now replaced with:

/scripts/removeacct

It's documented at:

The /scripts/removeacct Script - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Thank you.

 

[luissquall]

The documentation is not updated.

/scripts/removeacct --user=myaccount

fails with this error:

Unknown option: user
die [removeacct] Invalid username specified: ''.
exit level [die] [pid=721993] (Invalid username specified: ''.)

However,

/scripts/removeacct myaccount

works fine.

 

[cPanelMichael]

I've opened a case with our documentation team to correct the document. Thank you for reporting this.

The document is now updated with the correct information:

The /scripts/removeacct Script - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Thank you.
