WHMCS v. 6.0

[flanknet]

Has anyone upgraded to the new v. 6.0.0 yet? I'm in the middle of the upgrade as we speak, and I'm wanting to know if there is anything I have to be worried about with the new version?

[Dennis]

The TCAdmin module might not work. That was what happened after the release of v5.

[Dennis]

If I were you, I'd wait for a few days and make sure everything works. I'm going to test WHMCS on a dev site before moving everything over.

The error I'm getting right now is:

 

System.Exception: A service already exists with billing id 68 at Web.GameHosting.billingapi.xc9f5c0c708acbff6 () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at Web.GameHosting.billingapi.Page_Load (System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

[Dennis]

Then the service already exists.

We are running 6.0 with no issues.

6.0 has broken a lot for us and we decided to roll back and wait a bit we use a hand full of add-ons as well clan pay,whmcs_seo,ts3musicbot auto install and a hand full more

I have upgraded to 6.0 and everything seems to be working great except my automatic provisioning on items that have custom fields.

 

After upgrading to WHMCS 6, it appears the parameters from my custom fields are now longer being passed into my API.

 

Custom field: 1|DataCenter Location

 

The 1, was usually what the API was receiving. But now it is receiving "DataCenter Location". Its as though its ignoring the vertical pipe.

 

Any ideas, suggestions?

iam also think about an upgrade to v6 is the module working or should i wait a while to upgrade?

[xai]

i would wait for a while. Read about some bugs on other forums (e.g. order form - existing users cant login, ...).

[Jaggl]

"existing users cant login" > OMG.....

V6 seems to have some changes in it that break the provisioning system.

 

Luis is working with a client on it but the information is slow coming back from WHMCS.

 

As suggested, I would wait a bit before updating, or put in a ticket with us so Luis can explain the problems you may find.

It shouldn't even be suggested, actually... It should be common sense. Every major update risks breaking something, and I have no idea why people can't wait for a few more days to not have a broken system. I know that some people even upgraded to v6 while it was still in beta... NOT a wise thing to do when hosting services for paying customers.

If you read the technical issues forums on whmcss you will see why you should not upgrade. So many risks and you will have to wait much longer than usual to receive supports due to the whmcs support desk load.

Will you inform us when your new WHMCS 6 Module is ready?!

After upgrading to WHMCS 6, it appears the parameters from my custom fields are now longer being passed into my API.

 

Custom field: 1|DataCenter Location

Hi, I ran into the same issue, I ended up fixing it by using a custom config file for each of the games containing the following code (location.php is what I called the custom config file):

 

<?php

include('default_values.php');

switch ($params["customfields"]["Location"])

{

case "Dallas":

$billing_api_values["game_datacenter"] = 1;

break;

}

?>

 

So with that, if your custom field name is Location

It takes the value from it and looks for a case then turns that into a game_datacenter id that TCAdmin 2 can use. So Dallas, is received then turns that into game_datacenter 1 so that TCAdmin knows where to install the server.

This is a bug in WHMCS v6. They already know about this bug but they say it will be fixed until 6.0.1.

 

The only way to create it from WHMCS is if you go to the client's service. Click on save. Then click on create. Autosetup is broken because WHMCS saves incorrect values when the new order is placed. Clicking on save saves the correct values so the create button works.

[Dennis]

Or by doing as Brendan suggested.

Some hours ago they released whmcs v6.0.1 and i think the bug have been fixed: http://docs.whmcs.com/Changelog:WHMCS_V6.0.1#API

[gtsgaming]

GOOD NICE, its better to wait for the updates,

[proclan]

wait till version 6.2 and you should be fine.......

[Dennis]

6.2? That could be months away.

[Bubka3]

I'd hope he means 6.0.2.

[flanknet]

Since I've posted this thread, I've completely switched over to 6.0.0. The way v6 is running has been better than I initially thought. The only thing I wished they would have done is created a new look for the Admin Panel. If you want to see the new "Responsive" theme that they launched with v6, take a look at http://www.wpehosting.com/billing

I am set to upgrade as soon as this is fixed. All other mods are updated, tested and working fine on my test site.
