No, you dont have to purchase that - it is free. But you already have that installed on your webserver if you use WHMCS, because WHMCS needs this also.
I can't seem to find a place to automatically set the IP Address instead of the default '*' Is this a setting in WHMCS or in ISPConfig? Or should I look at modifying ISPConfig files?
All of your existing websites have '*' selected in ISPC? Then you should add an IP-Address and switch the sites from * to the correct IP. rudolfpietersma described it here:
Yes, I've switched them over to IPs instead but new sites are added by default with '*'. It should be the IP of the Server instead for new sites.
If you add them via WHMCS than have a look at your serversettings "Setup - Servers - Edit a server". There you have to set up the correct IP Address, the same as you use in ISPC for all existing sites.
One more question please- When I add an order to an existing customer in whmcs, a new user account is generated in ispconfig. Is it supposed to work this way? How do I get the domains consolidated? Regards, Brandon
Yes, thats the normal bahaviour, because ISPC needs for every hosting package an own user. If you have only a domain order you have to add it manually or you add some code to your registrar module in WHMCS if you use one. Because thats a registrar thing.
Thats not the case if you use ispconfig without whmcs. There are master templates and additional templates. You can assign as many additional templates to a user as you like and also a user can as have as many websites as nescessary.
I know that, but I thought he mainly meant the domain thing? If he meant the addon templates than it is not supported yet. I am not sure, if WHMCS directly supports a behaviour like this. I will check it, so I make a remark on the roadmap.
If WHMCS does not support cumulative limits like ispconfig, then you can e.g. use a master template where all limits are set to 0 and then add only a addon template for every new webhosting package that a customer orders. So you dont have to add new users.
It looks like we're going to need the ability for customers to add their own domains in domainmanager- Can we configure this in ISPConfig already?
Yes, I think you can enable the domain tool for the customers, too. But I dont think that that is the sense of this. The domain tool prevents customers from adding eg. external domains. So if you want that customers can add any domain you dont need the domain tool, then you can deactivate it.
DNS troubles Hi Germanius and any other helpful tippers, I'm having troubles with the DNS creation, it seems that the template isn't completely applied. The DNS Zone is created but "disabled" and none of the Zone records are created. The module settings in WHMCS are correct, and I've tried two different DNS templates. My Module version is 1.0.1. Any ideas? Thanks, Brandon
Hi there, are you the one who already sent me an email concerning the dns problem? If not, I am already working on that issue, because someone else has similar problems.
