Basic Pleskian
Hi,
To automate some tasks for some projects I'm working on, I need to be able to automatically create or delete ftp-users.
Creating and listing ftp-accounts is working great, but when it comes to deleting them I run into an internal server error. Before my script gets the response it's waiting for, the script crashes.
- When live watching the Apache error-log with 'tail -f', the terminal-session is exited with 'Killed (core dumped)'
- Apache error-log shows:
- Webbrowser shows default '500 Internal Server Error'
I have checked and changed time-out settings, but it didn't help. Error occurs a few seconds after executing, while the timeouts are set to 60 to 90 seconds.
Packet send to Plesk:
As far as I know, my xml-packet is correctly formatted (API manual), which could be verified by the fact that the user I was trying to delete is actually deleted. But the overall behavior is far from satisfying.
Using secret key or username/password combination makes no difference, both result in error.
Running the same packet through the python-script referred to on this page also kills the terminal-session.
My files:
PleskApiClient.php
ftp.php (only for testing-purposes, will be integrated in existing product when working)
Did I miss something?
