Is there a way to easily migrate accounts from one LC server to another? There are fewer domains to move but still the same I would appreciate some hints to do it easier. Note that both are master servers.

Yes I forgot about the regexp column. Thanks for reminding me. Still the same in the frontend some instruction is needed too.

What are valid login values? There is nothing documented. Also are password beginning with $1$ treated like MD5 hashes, like in other API calls?

Sometimes the WYSIWYG editor would work in this forum. I tried to manipulate my user settings, but it did not help to reactivate it. At the moment it is all very minimalistic and I cannot even make my text more readable with paragraphs, because my line breaks are ignored and all text is displayed joined together. Please could you improve the settings to allow at least some simple formatting?

The cause is explained

HostingSubscriptionAdd creates faullty individual subscription

HostingSubscriptionAdd will in certain circumstances create a subscription in an undefined state with unpredictable results. When you create an individual subscription its name will appear in the front-end but it cannot be used nor selected when adding a new domain. This must be the cause why I could not use HostingDomainAdd to add a domain (see for more information

. The faulty subscription is listed but is not usable for domain creation. Still the same there is no way to create "internal" (DNS) domains. With a correct subscription (created with a predefined hosting plan) the domain will be created as external (DNS) by default and there is no documented parameter for HostingDomainAdd to change the default.

No domain limit and HostingDomainAdd not working

I don't want to type it all again so I refer to the other post here: https://www.liveconfig.com/de/…=6243&viewfull=1#post6243

Limit nr of Internal domains in Hosting account and plan

I am surprised to to discover that the number of subdomains and external domains can be limited in account and hosting plan. But what about the Internal domains (managed by own DNS)? May be this was forgotten because only External domains were initially supported (DNS support was still missing)?

). The work around at the moment is to work with predefined hosting plans. These can be prepared in the web front-end with all the parameters and will create a working subscription.

I discovered that xdebug in "Step over" mode will not show the Soap errors but with Breakpoints I can see them. The subscriptionname used and returned with HostingSubscriptionAdd is the same as I use in HostingDomainAdd. When I check in the web interface I can see a subscription is created with the same name. Still HostingDomainAdd returns the error message "Invalid subscription (no record found)". This bug effectively blocks my migration efforts.

I don't want to type it all again so I refer to the other post here: https://www.liveconfig.com/de/…=6243&viewfull=1#post6243

I'm only guessing here. I was able to add a subscription but then when I log in as client, then it only displays the subdomain limit:

Contract      Domains   Subdomains
<cntr-name>   0         0 (unlimited)

Then when I try HostingDomainAdd with the soap api, it returns without error, but it stops execution of the script and no domain is added. Apparently by default an internal domain is supposed to be added, but since the limit is not clearly defined, it apparently fails.

Also, when this is by default an internal domain that is added, then there should be a parameter to set the DNS template.

I feel like to report this as bug now: https://www.liveconfig.com/de/…t-working?p=6244#post6244

Is there a way to switch off two factor authentication from the command line or another way, without having to log-in to the web interface?

I am surprised to to discover that the number of subdomains and external domains can be limited in account and hosting plan. But what about the Internal domains (managed by own DNS)? May be this was forgotten because only External domains were initially supported (DNS support was still missing)?

In the SOAP API description I don't find anything to set externa/internal DNS for a domain. What is the default? Internal or External? Is there a way to work around this missing parameter?

What happens when afterwards I put a value?

I pretend to use this to quickly migrate my accounts from the other server and then afterwards account after account adjust the quotas manually. I try to avoid complicated algorithms in my script to work around quota overselling in the previous control panel.

Well I am afraid we were both mislead. I found out it had to do with the host name of the server, which by force is the host name of the primary DNS in a new template and by force is the hostname of the MX record in a new zone. When in test fase this hostname was just set to something that does not resolve the an IP address. Consequently bind will consider the domain zone invalid and responds to dig queries accordingly.

When I set in the /etc/hosts the address hostname to the IP address of the server, then suddenly bind considers the zone valid and dig responses correctly.

Sorry for wasting your time this way, but at least I learned something.

Above the mailbox quota value of 2047GB, unexpected values are stored, even negative. I know it is a crazy high value, but validation should take care of this correctly, warning the user that a maximum limit has been passed. It should not store incorrect values.

This happened when I set the hosting plan quota to unlimited. See also the related question about the meaning of "unbegrenzt"

I please need an explanation of what "unbegrenzt" means in the context of the parameters mailquota and webspace of the command HostingSubscriptionAdd. I know what the German word means, but I don't know how LiveConfig handle this non-value. For instance, when I create an account with both unlimited webspace, how is that handled? What if both mailquota AND webspace are unlimited? What happens when there are more then one account that have unlimited webspace and/or mailquota?

I just sent the response to your email address.

has no positive effect. I went to another server with ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS. Same problem. Now when I rewrite the zone file to this format it starts working:

$TTL 7200

				2013120501	; serial
				86400	; refresh
				7200	; retry
				1209600	; expire
				3600	; minimum (neg. TTL)
				)
			IN NS	ns1.domain.com.

Ubuntu 11.10 64 bits

Backend is SQLite. I did the change in bind.lua, restarted and switched to external dns and back again. Same result:
