Setting up domains via API

[Jamesman]

I am having issues creating new domains on Plesk 9.5.2

I can create domains with minimal settings but once I try to add the <user> section I get this error:

error 1014 Parser error: Request is invalid

I have tried several configurations but none work where I can sett all the extra settings.

Any thing wrong with this packet?

Maybe problem in permissions section? There are some differences in different API protocol versions - http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PPP9/Doc/en-US/plesk-9.5-api-rpc/39967.htm
Check it.

I tried without the permissions set and it still gave me the same error.

All the user tags are optional so I tried with just

   <user>
     <enabled>true</enabled>
   </user>

Same error. But once I remove the <user> set it works.

I have reproduced this error with your example and with example from http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PPP9/Doc/en-US/plesk-9.5-api-rpc/33867.htm
I have forwarded it to developers for the further investigation. I will update thread with results as soon as I receive it.

Developers have informed me that the documentation example is wrong. The text correctly specifies the the node name is perms. Bug has been submitted.
Also, <user> must follow after <prefs> - the order is strictly fixed.
You can use the following command to validate request XML

$ xmllint --schema /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/schemas/rpc/1.4.2.0/agent_input.xsd myrequest.xml
