Hello, I would like to create a set of email users under a VirtualMin environment. I have programmed a PHP script that handles the registration, but I would need to create email users as well. I considered the Virtualmin API the easiest way, but I am having some problems.
I call from PHP system('/usr/sbin/virtualmin create-user --domain domain.com --user user --pass pass --quota 1048576 --real "John Smith"'); but at first I was getting: /usr/sbin/virtualmin must be run as root
I have commented out the lines that check for user-root at the virtualmin script, but now I get: Command create-user was not found
I would appreciate some help on this matter. Is it a permissions error still? Is there any easy way to this problem?
Thank you
When I try to run /usr/share/webmin/virtual-server/create-user.pl
from another user (other than root), I get:
Error: Script was not run with full path (failed to find /usr/share/webmin/virtual-server/create-user.pl under )
Script was not run with full path (failed to find /usr/share/webmin/virtual-server/create-user.pl under )
I believe the php script must use Remote API documented here:
http://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/developer/http
Thank you Ronald! This solved my problem :)
But I have a question:in the url" https://yourserver:10000/virtual-server/remote.cgi?program=create- alias&domain=foo.com&from=sales&to=joe@foo.com "what does the "sales" mean?
The "create-alias" option creates an email alias.
So in the above example, using "from=sales" makes the name of the alias "sales".
And then, sending an email to "sales" will cause that email to go to the mailbox of "joe@foo.com".
