Viewing/Stopping/Restarting Services from external webpage

At this time, our XML-API does support restarting of services. Viewing service status can be done independently of our APIs.

As for starting/stopping services, are you encountering any issues with your server that would make you desire to do this?

 

Take a look into writing specific interfaces with php and curl. I've done it in the past for a few additional remote server functions (like add account/modify account etc..). I've included the code below to give you a starting point. You should be able to use php and curl to be able to create something you want. Again the following is just an example as to how php/curl works. It will not solve your problem without heavy modifications...

Code:

<?php 
// start the session and pass the Session parameter
session_start(); 
header("Cache-control: private"); //IE 6 Fix

######### Set up basic variables #########
$serverIPaddress="192.168.1.1:2087";
$whmusername="root";
$whmpassword="123456";
$server="https://$whmusername:$whmpassword@$serverIPaddress";

//set the username of the account you are working with
$user = "bobby12";
$agent = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)";



######### Here are few example of many of the items that you could do with curl.  It will not execute until the very bottom #########

//change user's password
$url="$server/scripts/passwd?password=$passwd&domain=$user&user=$user";

//enable shell access		
$url="$server/scripts2/domanageshells?user=$user&shell=Enable+Jailed+Shell&user=$user";

//bandlimit increase		
$url="$server/scripts2/dolimitbw?user=$user&bwlimit=$bndwidth";
		
//suspend an account
$url="$server/scripts2/suspendacct?domain=$user&user=$user&suspend-domain=Suspend&reason=";

//UN-suspend an account
$url="$server/scripts2/suspendacct?domain=$user&user=$user&unsuspend-domain=UnSuspend&reason=";

//add front page extensions
$url="$server/scripts/installfp?domain=$user&user=$user&submit-domain=Install";

//remove front page extensions
$url="$server/scripts/uninstallfp?domain=$user&user=$user&submit-domain=UnInstall";

//modify the quota on the account		
$url="$server/scripts/editquota?user=$user&quota=$quota";

//add a domain pointer
$url="$server/scripts/park?txtdomain=&domain=$domain&ndomain=$NewDomain";
		
//modify the account
$url="$server/scripts/saveedituser?user=$user&BWLIMIT";
$url.="=$BWLIMIT&FEATURELIST=$FEATURELIST&IP=$IP&OWNER";
$url.="=$OWNER&PLAN=$PLAN&STARTDATE=$STARTDATE&DNS=$domain";
$url.="&RS=$RS&LANG=english&newuser=$user&seeshell=$shell&MAXPOP";
$url.="=$MAXPOP&MAXFTP=$MAXFTP&MAXLST=$MAXLST&MAXSUB=$MAXSUB&MAXSQL";
$url.="=$MAXSQL&MAXPARK=$MAXPARK&MAXADDON=$MAXADDON";

//generate a csr
 //need to replace spaces in all of the variables with the '+' sign
$host = str_replace(" ","+",$host);
$country = str_replace(" ","+",$country);
$state = str_replace(" ","+",$state);
$city = str_replace(" ","+",$city);
$cod = str_replace(" ","+",$cod);
$co = str_replace(" ","+",$co);
$email = str_replace(" ","+",$email);
$pass = str_replace(" ","+",$pass);
$url="$server/scripts/gencrt?xemail=$xemail&host=$host&country";
$url.="=$country&state=$state&city=$city&co=$co&cod=$cod&email=$email&pass=$pass";
		
######### execute curl #########

$ch=curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'cookie.txt');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, 'cookie.txt');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 4);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,1);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 0);
$buffer = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

If you are not able to do this on your own and are looking to hire someone to do this then we could talk. I am a US based programmer that could do something for you. If so write out a very detailed list of what exactly you want it to do and/or look like and we will proceed from there.
