7. Run the installation/upgrade script by going to EXAMPLE-www.your-website-address.com/modules/registrars/domainsDotCOZA/install.php

– Replace the your-website-address.com with your actual website address.

– Delete the /modules/registrars/domainsDotCOZA/install.php script after you have run this.

– This script will check and install all required email templates – once complete you can tweak the email templates in Setup > Email Templates.

8. Update your domainDotCOZA scheduled crons.

(Every 15 minutes):
/usr/bin/php-cli </path/to/your/whmcs>/modules/registrars/domainsDotCOZA/tools/domains_sync.php –poll &> /dev/null

(Every 12 hours):
/usr/bin/php-cli </path/to/your/whmcs>/modules/registrars/domainsDotCOZA/tools/domains_sync.php –sync &> /dev/null

Note : Please ensure the correct location is used for your scheduled crons, please do not attempt to use the above without editing it first with the right location.

– Remove the scheduled cron for the pending_transfers.php script as this is no longer used and has been folded into the “–poll” call above.

Once tasks 1 to 8 have been completed your module should be updated.
