Execute shell script after paid order

[sboselli]

I need to execute a shell script to create some custom users and files after an order´s been paid through Paypal.

 

I use the Single page templates.

 

From what i´ve found in searches i would need to use checkoutscript.php, but in the setup i got from my VPS there is no includes/checkoutscript.php or anywhere else either...

 

If so, how would i go about doing it?

 

Thanks,

 

Santiago.

Hi

If you are using cPanel/WHM and have root access

just create a new script on your server

 

/scripts/postwwwacct

or

/scripts/postwwwacctuser

 

More info on the cPanel.net website

Any suggestions if you don't use/ don't have shell access in cPanle?

You could also use the action hooks in WHMCS

Add your code to the actionhook_AfterModuleCreate function in /includes/actionhooks.php file

 

All hooks available are:

 

# This function runs when the user checks out using the shopping cart

actionhook_ShoppingCartCheckout

# This function runs when a new client is added

actionhook_ClientSignup

# This function runs when a change is made to clients details - name, address, email, password, etc...

actionhook_ClientDetailsEdit

# This function runs when a client logs in

actionhook_ClientLogin

# This function runs when a client logs out

actionhook_ClientLogout

# This function runs when a client is deleted

actionhook_ClientDelete

# This function runs when an invoice is fully paid and therefore the services renewed

actionhook_InvoicePaid

# This function runs when a ticket is opened

actionhook_TicketOpen

# This function runs when a ticket is replies to by a client or admin user

actionhook_TicketReply

# This function runs when a module creation command completes successfully - various variables available

actionhook_AfterModuleCreate

# This function runs when a module suspension command completes successfully - various variables available

actionhook_AfterModuleSuspend

# This function runs when a module unsuspension command completes successfully - various variables available

actionhook_AfterModuleUnsuspend

# This function runs when a module terminate command completes successfully - various variables available

actionhook_AfterModuleTerminate

# This function runs prior to checkout processing to allow for manipulation of cart session data

actionhook_PreShoppingCartCheckout

 

Hope that helps

Hi -

 

Zorro, did you ever get this working?

 

For the life of me, I'm having trouble making these action hooks actually do anything - specifically:

 

actionhook_AfterModuleCreate

actionhook_AfterModuleSuspend

actionhook_AfterModuleUnsuspend

actionhook_AfterModuleTerminate

 

I've written really big elaborate code and functions, to simply doing a print_r($data), to exec()'ing a touch on some file in /tmp - I just can't get them to execute.

 

Anyone have any tips on this? Had any problems in the past? If so, what did you do about it?

 

Thanks!
