Mail "Logaholic Import Task Completed" sent to user after account transfer

[WhiteDog]

Hello,

After setting up some new servers, we decided to transfer a few of our own accounts to these new servers as a test. Both servers are running cPanel 11.32.2 (b25).

After the transfer was completed, I noticed that an email was sent to the email address associated with the cPanel account (end-user). The title is "Logaholic Import Task Completed", message below:

Logaholic Process Finished for <account>

The following profiles where imported successfully.
- <domain> "The Logaholic profile for site “<domain>†was processed."

I opened a case with cPanel support (Req ID 2707314 / Inquiry 59662) but got a response that there is "no way" to turn this off / that this will not be changed in the code.

Imho, no mails should be sent to end-users during transfer and restore actions.
I assume this is a left-over of the Logaholic integration in cPanel, which is very specific.
As a transfer of accounts is basicly just a restore of a backup, you might get the same mails being sent when restoring backups.

Fear not however Should you find yourself in the same position right at the eve of a big migration, just change the following code in the file /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/TaskProcessors/LogaholicTasks.pm:

# send a msg to enduser
$self->_send_summary_msg( 'importlogdata', $results_hr );

to

# send a msg to enduser
# $self->_send_summary_msg( 'importlogdata', $results_hr );

Hope this helps someone today.

I just learned today that this is in fact "intentional behaviour".

If you don't want your users to be notified of Logahlic actions during account transfers / restore actions, please show some support for this topic so this can be changed.

Well, your fix posted above is a workaround to this issue. If you'd like to get some support for having this changed, I agree with you that it should be, you'll need to post a Feature Request as always.

This helped me out a lot! What ridiculous functionality - I have no idea why anybody would think this is a good idea to code into the product.

+1 for removal.
