Hello i was just wondering if you guys know if its possible to, or have a tutorial how i can do the following. At the moment i have a registration script that installs a user account on the WHM and then creates a copy into a remote mysql database. I was wondering if its possible to have it copy files (or come preloaded with a preloaded installation folder) that when i view the website on the new generated website, i can click install and it will copy out the files (I have created the installation script just need to somehow get the files onto the new created account.) Thankyou for your help, it is greatly appreciated. Thanks Lewis

  Hello :) Would the "Skeleton Directory" feature be useful in this case? It's documented at: cPanel - Skeleton Directory Thank you.

  Im sorry to bother you again, although i was trying to use a remote database, i setup a remote server on 46.32.227.112 & authenticated by password. that didn't work so i added my ip in additional ip hosts of 46.32.227.112 again. and went into cpanel and pressed remote database and added remote access hosts of: % and 46.32.227.112 I still cant connect although when i connect i get this error: Access denied for user 'root'@'host.tomlewisgroup.com' (using password: YES) and in the error log: [18-Oct-2013 18:58:21 UTC] PHP Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'root'@'host.tomlewisgroup.com' (using password: YES) in /home/domai769/public_html/index.php on line 9 its a blank document except for the mysql_connect function. I have this one database i want to connect to & even though its on another user.. its still on same server, so ip is the same. Thanks Lewis

  You should create a database user, add it to the database, and use that in your script configuration. Using "root" is not recommended due to security implications. Thank you.
