Hello,

I would simply like to get a CSV listing of all of my accounts. Fetch CSV only appears to print "/var/cpanel/root.accts" which only appears to be the first 30 accounts. Can someone fix this or do you have CPanel::Accounting script or simple Perl script that will dump the list account screen out in CSV format?

Thanks,
Brad

Using the accounting method I only get a return of 13 lines

equire '/usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/Accounting.php.inc';
$host = "localhost";
$user = "root";
$accesshash = 'hash_goes_here';

$accts = listaccts($host,$user,$accesshash,0);
foreach ($accts as $label => $content) {
echo "$label: $content[0]<BR>\n";
}

Any ideas why so few. there are 100 domains listed on the server.

30 when I do the fetcsv

I have one method to extract all account info.

1 - Open your WHM on FIREFOX <<<--- important, explorer do not work
2 - Go to list acounts
3 - List ALL
4 - Select all and copy
5 - In a good text editor ( ultraedit 32 ) paste all the copied text.
6 - Save as list.txt
6 - Open Excel
7 - Open File
8 - Choose TXT or CSV files.
9 - Open your List.txt file.
10 - Choose TAB delimited.
11 - Done, you got your nice list on excel.

Internet Explorer do not save the columns separated by tabs, so if you use it, in excel cannot import correctly yout CSV.

This is very painful is you have over 1000 accounts on a server.

This method works the same for 1 account or 10,000
Same number of steps. Same number of files. Same easy way.

Have you tried to do this on a box with over a 1000 accounts? I tried and my laptop (Centrino 1.7 GHz, 1 GB RAM) took quite some time to copy and transfer to an excel sheet.

I frequently use this method with text files that have 30-50K lines of data when I want to parse them up. Doesn't take my laptop long to do it at all.

You can go another method too.

View Source.
Save as .html
Open as html in XLS
Manipulate as needed.

Another method. Open in Excel as HTML. Save as Tab Delimted Text.
Re-open in Excel so you get rid of all the web formatting.


Should take 5 minutes tops.

Using the original method your storing it in RAM. Much faster to save it as an html page and then follow the steps here.

Thanks all

Thanks everyone for the suggestions and thank you CPanel team for getting it into the EDGE, however, I will wait for it to trickle down to STABLE before I can verify it.

Thanks again,
Brad

Aren't we slow?!!
This bug has been around for a long time and we only noticed it now. LOL

And the Fetch CSV doesn't show the contact email.
Was it deliberate?
I just want to know if the Contact Email is going to be fixed or not.I am tempted to create my own fetchCSV module using regex.

For as long as I've used CPANEL, the Fetch CSV hasn't ever included all the information that you get from the display itself in WHM. The only thing that works is copying the list all output from WHM.

Some day they will fix this... I hope... :)
