Greek Extensions

[pgge3]

Hello,

Does anybody know which is the WHOIS Database Server of the .gr Sites because in the includes/whoisservers.php doesn't have it.

[ur]

You could parse the form at:

 

https://grweb.ics.forth.gr/whois_el.jsp

 

There are no public whois servers for .gr that I know of. However, you can contact them to find out for sure. That said, "-h www.gr" and "-h forth.gr" respond to connections but return no data.

[pgge3]

Thank you for your answer although I have already tried this link. I search in Google for any possible whois Server for .gr Database but the National Regulatory Authority of Greece that is responsible for the .gr domains says that you have to be a valid registrar in order to have access in the WHOIS Database Thats why all the whois Databases I have search doesn't support .gr whois searches and if they support it they display always errors .example http://www.whois.net supports .gr extensions but when you do a search it come up only with errors. Anyway thanks again for your answer. The only solution to this is to be a registrar to have access to the database.

[nikos]

an alternative, is to co operate with an already registrat.

Some of them, like papaki give you reseller priviledges and also the appropriate code for having whois database search to your own site.

Hello...

 

I want to ask something.

I have the code from papaki like Nikos above said.

Is there anyone that can integrate it inside WHMCS ?

Because its a little difficult for me

[Yngwiedis]

Is there anyone who can help ?

[pgge3]

I suppose that papaki.gr had gave on you the whois Database of the .gr domains. Something like whois.server.gr . You should open the file whoisservers.php located in includes folder and add the following in the extensions ".gr|whois.server.gr|220 Available" or Not Match without the "". After that upload the file as Binarry in your Site.

Hello...

 

Papaki gave me a .zip with a lot of files.

I cant find any file with the code you said.

Is there anyway to add them to the Domain Registrars settings inside WHMCS ?

[pgge3]

Please PM me to give you more info.

[Yngwiedis]

Someone that can implement this, inside WHMCS ?

[Giannis]

Papaki api can not be implemented into whmcs.

It is something totaly different.

[Yngwiedis]

So there is no way to put a .gr availability checking in WHMCS ?

[Giannis]

of course there is, also registrar module is available for automatic registrations.

So there is no way to put a .gr availability checking in WHMCS ?

 

Did you find a solution?

I just wrote a simple program that acts like a whois server and can be intergrated to WHMCS...

If you want it i can post it...

zam could you please post your solution for the rest of us?

 

Thanks so much

Hi again.

 

The idea is to as you where a browser, get the results, find a string, css or something in the view source that can tell you when its free or not free and send back to whmcs the string that needs.

 

My registrar when a domain is not available has a class (

<b class="error">

) in its page named error (doesn't exist when a domain is free).If you want to use another registrar you have to change some of the vars in the script.

 

 

open includes/whoisservers.php and add at the first line :

 

.gr|http://www.yourdomain.gr/where_wcmc_is/domain- check.php?sdomain=|HTTPREQUEST-NO MATCH

 

This tells that wcmcs will use your php for gr checks.

 

upload to your whmcs folder (http://www.yourdomain.gr/where_wcmc_is/) the file domain- check.php that contains :

 

<?php

$arr=explode(".",$sdomain);

$domain=$arr[0];
$ext=".".$arr[1];

$webfile="http://www.ip.gr/el/main/whois.php";

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$webfile);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,"domain=$domain&ext=$ext");

$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

if (strstr($result,"<b class=\"error\">")) { echo "Domain Taken"; }
else { echo "NO MATCH"; }
?>

 

The script posts to the registrar form your data and checks for a match and returns it to whmcs.The problem is that if the registrar changes the page layout the script will not work. But at the end we are the only country without an open whois server. Anything that works is welcome

Have you tested with whmcs and it works?

Thanks so much

 

If you buy 200 credits from papaki.gr it gives you the whmcs module ready

 

checkit out www.realhosting.gr/billing

[weby]

As was already explained that is a module for being a reseller. Not suitable for .gr registrars

hello,

 

I did follow your instructions, and the result is that every .gr domain I look for is available..

hello,

I see that there are spaces in url.

So be sure that the :

 

.gr|http://www.yourdomain.gr/where_wcmc_is/domain-check.php?sdomain=|HTTPREQUEST-NO MATCH

 

is one line without spaces.

 

If you wish, send me in priv your script url to make a query...

[zam]

Ip.gr now offers a script for free, you can use it.. I didnt read the code but i believe that you can modify it as explained in my previous post to integrate it to whmcs. I still use my own script as i dont have the time to change it..
