Problem with Reseller's Shared IP... No IPs Available...

[goodbot]

I'm just setting up a new cPanel environment. I've created a few resellers. I've assigned each of them their own IP, and I've designated this IP as their sharing IP for the new accounts they set up. When I log into a reseller's account and attempt to create a new user account, I get the error message:

Account Creation Status: failed

Your system has run out of available ip addresses, or you do not have permission to use any more ip addresses. (Unable to find an ip address.)

In WHM (root), Resellers/Manage Reseller's IP Delegation/ in Restricted Delegation I'm showing the desired shared IP checked off and it reads:

123.123.123.123 (reseller01's shared IP)(Shared by reseller01.)(Delegated to reseller01.)

I've tried a number of userland/gui hacks to no avail. Any ideas?

Re: Problem with Reseller's Shared IP... No IPs Available... RESOLVED!

RESOLVED!

Here's the scoop... When setting up a new account, one of the steps you come to requires you to select a package... there's a checkbox option to "Select Options Manually"... I was NOT checking this because I just created the packages a short time earlier and I knew there was nothing in there that needed review or changing... WRONG!!

Within the package details the option "Dedicated IP" was checked. When I went through the account setup procedure again and this time checked the "Select Options Manually" box, the available options displayed expanded to now show me that the Dedicated IP box was checked... by simply unchecking this and proceeding, the account then setup successfully using the Reseller's dedicated shared IP (as I wanted).

Going back over my list of packages now, I'm finding that half of them have the Dedicated IP option set, the other half don't. I didn't want that option set on any package, so I'm a bit perplexed that this point got past me 5 or 6 times in setting up the packages. Also, I'm seeing that in 2 or 3 of the packages with the Dedicated IP option set, when reviewing it during this Account Setup routine described above... the Dedicated IP checkbox is shown as being selected... but it's grayed out (not focusable/not selectable), so the Dedicated IP option cannot be unselected.

This is the next thing I need to investigate... that I apparently need to fix in several of my defined packages. I'll start off by squashing/deleting them... rebuilding them and seeing if this fixes these Dedicated IPs that keep showing as selected.

Anyway... my first problem here is resolved!!

I am happy to see the issue was resolved. Note that you can edit an existing package via:

"WHM Home » Packages » Edit a Package"

Thank you.
