Hello, I have two problem with web services:

1) There isn't a method for remove a subdomain, only for create;


2) I have some problem with "ModifyServer" method of "MakeBooking" web services.
I am creating a PHP software with POST methods for comunicate with GC web services. My problem is with "propertyValues" parameter.

Can anyone do an example of "ModifyServer" method with POST?



Thanks very much, and exescume for my bad english.

Hi,

1) Thanks, I've put this down as a feature request.

2) The 'property values' field is a 'Url Encoded' Key/Value Pair (joined by the equals (=) symbol), and pairs are joined by the ampersand (&) symbol.

In PHP code, this would be equivalent:

I have created a class with this method for modify a server and I have applied your changes, but the result is always "false".

You should use PHP SoapClient to interact with GameCreate instead of constructing a HTTP post yourself.

See http://au2.php.net/soapclient

You can view the WSDL file that you will need at http://world.gamecreate.com/admin/Remote.asmx?wsdl

Ok, but now have some problems too.

Code used:

[Andrew]

Can you please give me the output of this command:

var_dump($params);
var_dump($data);

So we can see what data you are sending, I suspect its malformed.

[carlino1994]

$params is an array passed to a function from WHMCS (I am creating a WHMCS module) and it's correct, because I use it with other function (start, stop, restarting, get server status, create server, ecc...).

Instead, the $data array, is the $_POST array ($data = $_POST) with the data inserted in the configuration form.

$data

[Andrew]

I just used this function fine.

Can you please show me the output of the $params array.

Also, its invalid to pass in "rcon_password={$data['rcon_password']}&gamemodes={$data['gamemodes']}""

Both your 'game modes' and rcon password values have not been url encoded as required.

You need to use the CreatePropertyValues function as shown above.

Replace that with:

$params = CreatePropertyValues($data);

Then supply $params as the 5th argument.

Also try setting the last argument to '0' (quoted zero).

Hi,

I notice 'serverid' is 2, thats not a GameCreate Server Id

The Server Id is found when you visit the Server Overview page for a server, and you see it in the address bar: Server.aspx?id=XXX

If this is an order processing system, do you mean to use the CreateServerOnBestHost service call?

This will handle installing the game and picking a host (from a list you provide) for you.

See http://world.gamecreate.com/admin/Remote.asmx?op=CreateServerOnBestHost for the arguments - note that its Remote.asmx for this web service, not MakeBooking.asmx

An example:

actorUsername and actorPassword: An account with Full System permission in GameCreate
domainId: Domain Id to create this server under. If this is a rental environment, you probably want to create a subdomain (we recommend it - subdomain users are isolated from each other, and each get their own game installation).

You need to create a Domain and use its Id here. To create a subdomain, use the http://world.gamecreate.com/admin/Remote.asmx?op=CreateSubdomain method.

gameId: Id of the Game you want a server created for.

name: Initial server name to use

players: Max Players value

startPort: Port number to begin creating new servers from, for example, 2000 (the next server will receive the next free port etc automatically)

--

If you want to edit an existing server, then use your Modify Server call but supply a valid GameCreate Server Id.

Hi,

Sorry, skimmed over that.

Can you create a new user account with a test username and password and assign them System permission on your GameCreate domain?

Then send me (PM is fine) a working PHP example of the web service call not working (with all the details filled in) so I can just run the example and see the error like you see (either as a command line program or simple web page is fine - it doesn't need to be pretty )

I can then verify what's going on, as I was able to modify a server fine on a different domain than yours.

[carlino1994]

PM Sended.

[Andrew]

Hi,

Thanks for the PM.

So the reason this wasn't working was because PHP's SoapClient does not appear to send the parameters correctly if you don't specify their names.

So you need to use this:

[carlino1994]

The php example which I send you, with your edit, now work for me too and change the server config.



My WHMCS script now work, but the value of 'ModifyServerResult' is empty and not change server config.
