Configuring NASK queue deamon

For the Queue to work correctly:

• must have python installed
• must add commands to the service so that the Queue works after restarting the server

Commands:

• start: {path to python} {path to the NASK module}/deamon/nask.py start
• stop: {path to python} {path to the NASK module}/deamon/nask.py stop
• restart: {path to python} {path to the NASK module}/deamon/nask.py restart

Example for CentOS 7:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/python /home/hostbill/public_html/includes/modules/Domain/nask/deamon/nask.py start
ExecStop=/usr/bin/python /home/hostbill/public_html/includes/modules/Domain/nask/deamon/nask.py stop
ExecReload=/usr/bin/python /home/hostbill/public_html/includes/modules/Domain/nask/deamon/nask.py restart
RemainAfterExit=yes

Additional module capabilities

Once module connection is set, under Payments →NASK Status you will get ability to :

• Check connection Status & current account balance at NASK
• Track & debug last Poll Messages from EPP interface
• Execution of Queries by sending XML
• Adding queries to the Queue where the request execution date can be set.
