installcpanel Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi, slim open por 43 on firewall. http://docs.whmcs.com/ResellerClub Common Problems Connection Problems HTTP Error: Couldn't open socket connection to server: http://www.myorderbox.com/anacreon/servlet/APIv3 Domain Registration Error - Unable to connect to Registry These errors occur when the ResellerClub server is unreachable. They may be experiencing problems or it could be a local firewall blocking the connection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot wait 2 days for a reply to this issue. you dont need a whois to register any domains, you use a domain regsitrar for this, a whois only looks up the whois info related to a domain. an alternative whois try http://whois.domaintools.com/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cenourinha Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Solved this problem using the solution that NetEarthOne give us for .eu domains: http://blog.netearthgroup.com/2012/01/es-and-eu-registrations-using-billing-applications/ If you're a NetEarthOne Reseller, you just need to contact them and they will help you with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this issue, your clients will get an error message and all the .com and .net domains will show as unavailable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 So we still cant register .com or .net domains - no one using WHMCS can? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 FOr all those posting about specific resellers - This topic is NOT about that. Its about the whois server WHMCS uses to check if .com and .net domains are available. EVERYONE that uses WHMCS uses whois.crsnic.net when someone checks if .com or .net domain is available - and this is currently dead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
