SOLVED xmlapi addsubdomain gives error in cpanel.pl line 1825

[nickwuk]

I'm using the following code to add a sub domain:

include 'xmlapi.php';

$cpanel_host = 'mydomain.uk';
$cpanel_user = 'someuser';
$subdomain = 'mysubdomain';
$cpanel_pass = 'mypass';
$dir = 'public_html/'.$subdomain;

$xmlapi = new xmlapi($cpanel_host);
$xmlapi->password_auth($cpanel_user, $cpanel_pass);
$xmlapi->set_http_client('curl');
$xmlapi->set_port(2083);
$xmlapi->set_output('json');
$xmlapi->set_debug(1);

$opts = array($subdomain,$cpanel_host,$dir,'1');

print $xmlapi->api1_query($cpanel_user, "Subdomain", "addsubdomain", $opts);

And the error I get is: Can't use an undefined value as a subroutine reference at cpanel.pl line 1825

As another test, and using the same authorisation code, the function addpop to add a new mailbox works fine.

Cpanel version 62.0(build 7), Php 5.6.30, Perl 5.10.1, theme 'paper_lantern'.

Any ideas please?

Hello,

Here's a closer example, using JSON instead of XML, that you may find helpful:

JSON-API calls to make new subdomain, email, ftp, and database help

Thank you.

@cPanelMichael thanks for the link. To start with I couldn't see much difference in the code since the variable $json_client was the same as my $xmlapi ie an both instance of class xmlapi. Looking closer I found that I needed to change the module title from 'Subdomain' to 'SubDomain' with an uppercase 'D', use function api2_query instead of api1_query, and restructure my $opts array to include keys and then it worked.

include 'xmlapi.php';

$cpanel_host = 'mydomain.uk';
$cpanel_user = 'someuser';
$subdomain = 'mysubdomain';
$cpanel_pass = 'mypass';
$dir = 'public_html/'.$subdomain;

$xmlapi = new xmlapi($cpanel_host);
$xmlapi->password_auth($cpanel_user, $cpanel_pass);
$xmlapi->set_http_client('curl');
$xmlapi->set_port(2083);
$xmlapi->set_output('json');
$xmlapi->set_debug(1);

$opts = array('domain'    => $subdomain,
              'rootdomain'=> $cpanel_host,
              'dir'        => $dir,
              'disallowdot'=> '1');

print $xmlapi->api2_query($cpanel_user, "SubDomain", "addsubdomain", $opts);
