API Command Not Found (Sigh ... why?)

[aamche]

I'm writing code to work with the API and no matter how many examples I copy it simply doesn't work. It seems to authenticate fine, IP is allowed, it just can't process any actions (commands).

 

I just keep receiving

The following error occured: Command Not Found

 

It seems pretty self explanatory, the value for action is wrong. I tried many out of the API documentation, which fail, so I'm not sure where to go from here.

 

	$postfields["username"] = $this->whmcs_user;
	$postfields["password"] = md5($this->whmcs_pass);
	$postfields["action"] = "encryptpassword";
	$postfields["password2"] = 'xxxxxx';

	$ch = curl_init();
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 100);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postfields);
	$data = curl_exec($ch);
	curl_close($ch);

	$data = explode(";",$data);
	foreach ($data AS $temp) {
	  $temp = explode("=",$temp);
	  $results[$temp[0]] = $temp[1];
	}

	if ($results["result"]=="success") {
	  # Result was OK!
	} else {
	  # An error occured
	  echo "The following error occured: ".$results["message"];
	}

I am getting same thing on a new script I am working on. I can addclient, but then it fails on addorder and acceptorder ?

I just recently encountered this exact problem but for me it is with the command updateinvoice. I can addorder, and a few other commands, but updateinvoice gives me the Command Not Found error. I don't understand why or how it's happening, but I need updateinvoice to work for a solution I am developing.

At least you guys are getting command not found - been trying with updateinvoice myself here and I'm getting a successful return value and invoiceid.. but the invoice isn't updated at all =(

 

I've put in a ticket, awaiting their reply..

[oderland-david]

It seems that updateinvoice is working for some fields, like paymentmethod.. but not for newitems and items fields.

** edit - my whmcs version doesnt support the feature, im on 4.2 and 4.3 has the updateinvoice feature
