…and if I search Google, all I find is a heap of old threads from old cPanel versions and none of them work anymore. Most of them are littered with unanswered questions, asking for helkp that they don’t work.
Can anyone help me to create an account on WHM with PHP?
This used to work (I used to use it), but it no longer works since cPanel changed:
<?php
###############################################################
# cPanel WHM Account Creator 1.1
###############################################################
# Visit http://www.zubrag.com/scripts/ for updates
###############################################################
# Required parameters:
# - domain - new account domain
# - user - new account username
# - password - new account password
# - package - new account hosting package (plan)
# - email - contact email
#
# Sample run: create-whm-account.php?domain=reseller.com&user=hosting&password=manager&package=unix_500
#
# If no parameters passed then input form will be shown to enter data.
#
# This script can also be run from another PHP script. This may
# be helpful if you have some user interface already in place and
# want to automatically create WHM accounts from there.
# In this case you have to setup following variables instead of
# passing them as parameters:
# - $user_domain - new account domain
# - $user_name - new account username
# - $user_pass - new account password
# - $user_plan - new account hosting package (plan)
# - $user_email - contact email
#
###############################################################
/////// YOUR WHM LOGIN DATA
$whm_user = "root"; // reseller username
$whm_pass = "password"; // the password you use to login to WHM

$whm_host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
function getVar($name, $def = '') {
if (isset($_REQUEST[$name]))
return $_REQUEST[$name];
else
return $def;
}
// Domain name of new hosting account
// To create subdomain just pass full subdomain name

if (!isset($user_domain)) {

It looks like PHP isn’t configured to allow remote HTTP requests through file_get_contents et al, try using cURL, or changing the allow_url_fopen directive.
