Activation

To activate and begin using the OpenSRS registrar module:

Check to ensure that your server includes all required third-party classes (for example, PEAR). If it does not, see the section below.
Log in to the WHMCS Admin Area.
Go to Configuration () > System Settings > Domain Registrars or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Products/Services > Domain Registrars.
Find OpenSRS in the list.
Click Activate.
Enter your OpenSRS credentials. You can generate your PrivateKey value at Generate New Private Key in the OpenSRS Reseller Web Interface.
Click Save Changes.
In the OpenSRS Reseller Web Interface, go to Add IPs for Script/API Access and configure access for your server's IP address. You can find this address in WHMCS at Help > License Information.
Configure and fund your OpenSRS reseller account. For more information, see OpenSRS's documentation.

Test Mode

You can use test mode to simulate domain registration and management function without registering a domain or incurring charges. This can be useful to test WHMCS configurations.

Additional Registrar Module Files Requirement

If your server does not include all of the required third-party classes, you must download the necessary files and upload them to the /modules/registrars/opensrs/ directory.

Automatic Registration

WHMCS allows you to set up automatic domain registration on a per-extension basis, enabling you to use different registrars for different TLDs.

To enable automatic registration, see Domain Pricing.

Automatic Domain Synchronization

This module supports automatic domain synchronization for syncing expiry dates and status changes for incoming transfers.

To use this, enable Domain Sync Enabled and configure the domain sync task at Configuration () > System Settings > Automation Settings or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Automation Settings.

Troubleshooting

Blank Response or Connection Error Message

This usually indicates that the OpenSRS API port numbers (55443 and 55000) are blocked by your server's firewall and you must open them for outbound connections.

Partially Loaded Page (Blank or Lost Formatting)

The OpenSRS module requires additional files.

Download these files and then upload them to the /modules/registrars/opensrs/ folder.
For more information, see OpenSRS Activation.

Domain Already Renewed

This indicates that the Expiry Date value in the client's Domains tab is invalid or incorrect. Correcting this value allows domain renewal.

Order xxxxxxx is not a pending, declined or cancelled order and cannot be processed

The system still registers the domain name when this error occurs. To stop the error, set Process Immediately to Off in your OpenSRS account.

+== Activation ==
-==Configuration==
+To activate and begin using the OpenSRS registrar module:
-To setup the OpenSRS Registrar integration in WHMCS, begin by going to '''Setup > Domain Registrars'''. Next, choose '''OpenSRS''' from the dropdown menu of available registrars and click '''Go''' to view the settings for it. You will then be asked to enter your '''Username''' and '''Private Key''' for your OpenSRS reseller account, then click save to complete.
-Please Note: You also need to register your server IP within your OpenSRS reseller account to authorize access to your account. Please see below for more info on this.
-===Private Key Generation===
-To generate your private key, login to the OpenSRS Reseller Web Interface using your OpenSRS username and password and access the “Generate New Private Key” link.
-===IP Registration===
-To add your server IP, access the OpenSRS Reseller Web Interface using your OpenSRS username and password, and then access the “Add IPs for Script/API Access” link.  The IP address that needs to be set up is the one that your WHMCS instance will be seen as from the world wide web.
-===Additional Registrar Module Files Requirement===
-OpenSRS requires some third party classes such as PEAR in order to work and it’s likely that the module will fail to operate entirely without these files.  The files can be obtained using the following link and need to be unzipped and the contents uploaded into the /modules/registrars/opensrs/ folder.
-http://www.whmcs.com/members/dl.php?type=d&id=29
-Finally, domain pricing needs to be configured within WHMCS.  Please see the  [[Domains Management]] page for additional help on doing that.
+# Check to ensure that your server includes all required third-party classes (for example, PEAR). If it does not, see [[#Additional_Registrar_Module_Files_Requirement|the section below]].
+# Log in to the WHMCS Admin Area.
+# Go to '''Configuration (<i class="fa fa-wrench" aria-hidden="true"></i>) > System Settings > [[Domain Registrars]]''' or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, '''Setup > Products/Services > Domain Registrars'''.
+# Find '''OpenSRS''' in the list.
+# Click '''Activate'''.
+# Enter your OpenSRS credentials. You can generate your '''PrivateKey''' value at '''Generate New Private Key''' in the OpenSRS Reseller Web Interface.
+# Click '''Save Changes'''.
+# In the OpenSRS Reseller Web Interface, go to '''Add IPs for Script/API Access''' and configure access for your server's IP address. You can find this address in WHMCS at '''Help > [[License Information]]'''.

-===Test Mode===
+=== Test Mode ===
-WHMCS can be configured for testing purposes by ticking the “Test Mode” when configuring OpenSRS as the registrar.  This will point all domain related requests to the test environment provided to you by OpenSRS.
+You can use test mode to simulate domain registration and management function without registering a domain or incurring charges. This can be useful to test WHMCS configurations.
+=== Additional Registrar Module Files Requirement ===
-==Configuring you OpenSRS Reseller Account==
+If your server does not include all of the required third-party classes, you must [https://www.whmcs.com/members/dl.php?type=d&id=29 download the necessary files] and upload them to the <tt>/modules/registrars/opensrs/</tt> directory.
-Before using OpenSRS for domain registrations your OpenSRS reseller account should be configured and funded for use.
+== Automatic Registration ==
-Please refer to “Setting your account defaults” and “Payments” (funding your account) sections in the “Reseller's Guide to Domain Name Registration and Management” available in the documentation section of our OpenSRS.com website (http://opensrs.com/resources).
+WHMCS allows you to set up automatic domain registration on a per-extension basis, enabling you to use different registrars for different TLDs.
-The “Reseller's Guide to Domain Name Registration and Management” is a very important resource for managing and troubleshooting domain registrations, as is the Reseller Web Interface we provide you with your OpenSRS reseller account.
+To enable automatic registration, see [[Domain Pricing]].
-==Importing Existing Domains==
+== Automatic Domain Synchronization ==
+This module supports automatic domain synchronization for syncing expiry dates and status changes for incoming transfers.
+To use this, enable '''Domain Sync Enabled''' and [[Domain_Synchronisation#Configuration|configure the domain sync task]] at '''Configuration (<i class="fa fa-wrench" aria-hidden="true"></i>) > System Settings > [[Automation Settings]]''' or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, '''Setup > Automation Settings'''.
-OpenSRS is unique in that each domain has its' own username and password, and just being the reseller that owns the domain is not enough to be able to manage it. Therefore in order to be able to manage domains registered with OpenSRS/ResellOne outside of WHMCS you will need to manually add the domains individual username & password directly to the mod_opensrs table of the database.  This is in addition to adding the domain to WHMCS itself if it's not already in the database.  Please refer to [http://wiki.whmcs.com/Importing_Data#Manual_Domain_Only_Entry adding the domains to WHMCS] for the steps for doing that.
+== Troubleshooting ==
-==Troubleshooting Tips==
+=== Blank Response or Connection Error Message ===
-===Blank Response or Connection Error Message===
+This usually indicates that the OpenSRS API port numbers (<tt>55443</tt> and <tt>55000</tt>) are blocked by your server's firewall and you must open them for outbound connections.
-This is commonly caused by the port numbers that the OpenSRS API operates on being blocked by your server's firewall.  The ports used in communication to the API are 55443 and 55000 so need to be opened for both inbound and outbound connections.

+=== Domain Already Renewed ===
-The OpenSRS module requires some additional files in order to work. Please refer to the '''Additional Registrar Module Files Requirement''' section above for more info.
+This indicates that the '''Expiry Date''' value in the client's '''[[Clients:Domains Tab|Domains]]''' tab is invalid or incorrect. Correcting this value allows domain renewal.
-===Domain Already Renewed===
+=== Order xxxxxxx is not a pending, declined or cancelled order and cannot be processed ===
-Seeing this error when attempting to renew a domain is caused by an invalid or incorrect Expiry Date value under the client's Domains tab. Correcting this value will enable the domain to be renewed.
-===Order xxxxxxx is not a pending, declined or cancelled order and cannot be processed===
+The system still registers the domain name when this error occurs. To stop the error, set '''Process Immediately''' to '''Off''' in your OpenSRS account.
-The domain name will still be registered, but changing the "Process Immediately" setting in your OpenSRS account to "Off" will stop this error occurring.
