Create domain using cli fails

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version Rocky Linux 9.4
Webmin version 2.111

I use this command and getting a error about administrator user.

virtualmin create-domain --domain example.com --user admin123 --pass mysecurepassword --group example.com --email admin123@example.com --desc "My Example Domain" --template "Default Settings" --plan "Default Plan" --web
(error produced) A website cannot be enabled without an administration user

As far as I can see --user is the admin user, any idea what wrong with the command?

Try using parameters: --unix (for creating the user) and --dir (for home dir creation)

Nope,
virtualmin create-domain --unix admin123 --pass mysecurepassword --group example.com --email admin123@example.com --domain example.com --desc "My Example Domain" --template "Default Settings" --plan "Default Plan" --web
Unknown parameter admin123
I shouldn’t have to work out --dir and the error is A website cannot be enabled without an administration user

How about

virtualmin create-domain --domain example.com --user admin123 --pass mysecurepassword --group example.com --email admin123@example.com --desc "My Example Domain" --template "Default Settings" --plan "Default Plan" --web --unix --dir

Works for me.

yes thank you, was bugging me :slight_smile: They must be needed those switches for some reason. Plus the error is misleading
