Errors running cPanel API 1 for cPAddons

[JetfireMike]

I am attempting to use the cPanel API 1 to access cPAddons as per cPanel API 1 Functions - cPAddons::mainpg - Software Development Kit - cPanel Documentation.

When running the example given against the user site1x..

cpapi1 --user=site1x cPAddons mainpg

..I receive this response:

It appears to be expecting parameters; however, no matter what I supply to it, I end up with the same HASH ref error.

In looking at the module file in question (/usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/cPAddons.pm) it appears that any params passed to it are passed as a string and not as a hash; therefore, it errors out. I cannot figure out how to pass it the parameters in the format expected.

Any assistance would be appreciated! I eventually want to install the cPanel::Blogs::WordPress addon via the API, but I can't seem to get past step one yet.

Hello,

There's currently an internal case open reporting this issue. For reference, the case number is PH-3902. I'll update this thread with more information on the status of this case as it becomes available. You should still be able to utilize this API function via methods other than cpapi1 on the command line.

Thank you.
