Provisioning on DirectAdmin with similar domain names


Eden

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Today we had a customer order three domain names with hosting. For example

 

mydomain.com

mydomain.net

mydomain.org

 

As three seperate hosting accounts. However when WHMCS tried to provision the three hosting accounts it tried to create username 'mydomain' for all three accounts, so only one of the accounts actually got provisioned.

 

Can WHMCS check the database first for an existing DirectAdmin account and if it already exists append a number onto it for example it would have made sense to be:

 

mydomain

mydomain1

mydomain2

 

- Or -

 

Can it be setup to use a random username?

 

Thanks

WHMCS already automatically ensures unique usernames. If a domain google.com and google.co.uk was ordered, the first username would be googleco and the second would be assigned a username of googlec1.

When did that feature get added?

 

Remember this is when two domains are ordered at the same time for example, if I order:

 

google.com

google.net

 

and provision towards DirectAdmin then only one account is created. The second one aborts.
