Installation and Configuration
This tutorial will show you how to successfully install and configure Zimbra Email For WHMCS.
We will guide you step by step through the whole installation process.
|
Installation
| 1. Log in to your client area and download Zimbra Email For WHMCS.
|
2. Upload and extract the module into the main WHMCS directory.
Files in your WHMCS directory should look like these.
|
3. When you install Zimbra Email for the first time you have to rename 'license_RENAME.php' file.
File is located in 'modules/servers/zimbraEmail/license_RENAME.php'. Rename it from 'license_RENAME.php' to 'license.php'.
|
4. In order to configure your license key you have to edit a previously renamed 'license.php' file.
Enter your license key between quotation marks as presented on the following screen. You can find your license key in your client area → 'My Products'.
|
Server Configuration
5. Now let's configure a new product. Log in to your WHMCS, press 'Setup' → 'Products/Services' → 'Servers'.
Afterwards press 'Add New Server'.
|
6. Next, enter your server name and Zimbra server hostname. Type in your username and password used to log in to Zimbra server.
Choose 'ZimbraEmail' from a dropdown menu and press 'Save Changes'.
Keep in mind that value of client area button 'Login to Webmail' is taken from the 'Hostname' field. If the field is empty, it is taken from an 'IP Address' field.
Here you can also provide other server details like nameservers or maximum number of accounts.
|
7. After you configure your server correctly, you will see a following screen.
Now you need to create a new group for your server. For that purpose press 'Create New Group'.
|
| 8. Enter name, click on your previously created server, press 'Add' then 'Save Changes'.
|
Product Configuration
9. In order to create and configure product, click on 'Setup' → 'Products/Services' → 'Products/Services'.
If you do not have a product group, click on 'Create a New Group'. If you do, simply move to step 11.
|
| 10. Enter product group name and press 'Create Group'.
|
11. When you have a product group, you can create your product and assign it to Zimbra Email. If you already have a product, go to step 13.
To create a product click on 'Create a New Product'.
|
| 12. Afterwards, choose your product type and product group from dropdown menus, enter your product name and press 'Continue'.
|
| 13. Now, go to 'Module Settings' section, choose both 'ZimbraEmail' and your previously created server group from dropdown menus'.
|
14. Afterwards, define settings of the module and press 'Save Changes'.
Note 1: If you choose 'Use Custom Settings' from 'COS Name' dropdown menu, you can define your own set of user permissions using sections below.
Note 2: If you choose 'Allow clients to choose COS', additional configurable options will be generated and clients will be allowed to set COS while ordering your product.
|
15. Additionally, you can replace modules static limit with dynamic one in form of configurable options.
Press 'Generate Default' near 'Configurable Options' to generate default set of them.
More about management of configurable options can be found here.
|
| Well done, your module is now ready to complete the first order!
|
Management
| Let's customize your Zimbra Email and see what features it offers. No worries, our product is very simple in use!
|
Admin Area
| From here you can manage your clients accounts.
|
Client Area
Zimbra Email allows your customers to manage their zimbra email accounts from your WHMCS client area.
This is how it looks like in the client area.
|
Accounts
| Accounts page enables you to manage existing accounts and create new ones within defined limits.
|
Press add to create a new account.
As you can see on the screen below, you can define details of account owner.
|
You can order various operations on a single account through dropdown menu.
Alternatively, you can mark multiple accounts and issue any command using buttons above.
|
Aliases
| Aliases enable you to use additional address for the same e-mail account.
|
| Any alias can be quickly removed, through pressing bin icon.
|
Distribution Lists
| Distribution lists enable you to create and manage them without the necessity to log into Zimbra panel.
|
| Create them in the same way you would do that in Zimbra panel.
|
| As soon as you configure the list, press 'Save' to create it.
|
| If you made a mistake while creating a list, you can quickly edit it or remove it completely.
|
Management of Billing
| Module allows you to charge your customers basing on the server resources used by them.
|
| With Advanced Billing module, you can also display the current server resource usage and their cost and let your customers see it.
|
Tips
| 1. Zimbra Email For WHMCS requires SOAP installed on your server.
|
Common Problems
| 1. When you have problems with connection, check whether your SELinux or firewall does not block ports.
|
| 2. The error 'Could not connect to host' is connected with SOAP. To fix it, make sure that port 7071 is open.
