Server Notification Email Test.

[BackBacon]

Hello all,

I just made my first edit to a server notification email template, (Quota), and am wondering if I can force a an email delivery at will to test the change?

Which template did you modify? You could always just perform the action that would trigger the email notification.

main.html.tmpl

[[email protected] icontact_templates]# pwd
/var/cpanel/templates/icontact_templates
[[email protected] icontact_templates]# ls -la
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Aug 20 2019 include
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 23 14:43 Quota
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Aug 20 2019 wrapper
[[email protected] icontact_templates]# ls -la wrapper/main.html.tmpl
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7718 Mar 23 14:56 wrapper/main.html.tmpl

I'd think the easiest way to get that answer would be to reduce a user's quota below the level at which a notification is sent. As long as you followed the directions for this as noted here: Notification Templates | cPanel & WHM Documentation this should be fine.

That's actually the exact strategy I used, but It seems I have to wait for a cron job or something to run. Seems to be invoked late at night. I would like to make some other edits, and test at the time they are done.

Within Quota there are several templates:

[ro[email protected] icontact_templates]# cd Quota/
[[email protected] Quota]# ls -lah

In order to tell you how to trigger the notification I need to know which of those templates you modified.
