Fatal Error when trying to edit Contact

[parisi]

I am migrating to a new server and succesfully copied all the accounts over. I was updating all of the contacts via the WHM List Accounts interface. All but two worked perfectly.

Two of them had the following error when I clicked the Save Email button:

[a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive]The contact email has been changed to [email protected].

Any ideas? I did check the directory and the .contactemail file was 0 bytes and the contactinfo file in .cpanel folder was also 0 bytes. I copied files from an account that works and still have the same issue. I also checked the ownership and rights and they seem to be appropriate.

Additionally, my List Accounts display has

<div id

where the email should be for the two problem accounts!

Thanks in advance!
Paul.

I have it too for one account. I'm not logged in at the moment, I'll post some more specific details later.

I've got exactly the same problem here.

I guess this happened when I changed an email using the "auto suggest popup" (from Safari)

Did someone found a solution to fix accounts having a bogus contact email ?

Could you provide an example of a bogus contact email?

Hi kenneth

Thanks for your reply.

After my post i just upgraded to WHM 11.24.2. and this fixed the issue:

I tried to change the contact email that was showing "<div id", and got the
"[a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive]The contact email has been changed to [email protected]. " message.

But this time, the contact email has been successfully updated.

Thank you cPanel team! :p

Thank you cPanel team! :p

I am glad it is sorted for you. If anyone is still able to duplicate this behavior in 11.24 I would be most interested in sample data for testing purposes. Thank you.

Already running cPanel 11.24.4-R32603 - WHM 11.24.2 - X 3.9, the problem persist. Clicking on the error message (a fatal error...) gave me this

Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.2/x86_64-linux/YAML/Syck.pm line 72.

(I changed the --username-- and [email protected] part)

installing YAML::Loader:: Syck doesn't help

Please advice
