panxapi -C used to work for me. Now that I've upgraded to 4.1 I get
commit: File does not exist: Illegal value for parameter "action" [commit]. Should be one of : [clone, complete, delete, edit, get, rename, set, show]. at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/PAN/XAPI.pm line 230
Can anyone point me to a solution?

which panxapi build are you using ? I just did a small test and it looks fine in my environment.
ksomu@ksomu-VirtualBox:~/pan/PAN-perl-20111226/bin$ panxapi -l admin:admin -h 10.2.133.15 -CD
commit: success: Commit job enqueued with jobid 78
admin@PA-5060-1> show jobs id 78
Enqueued ID Type Status Result Completed

Configuration committed successfully

I'm using 4.1.3 and PAN-perl-20111226.tgz and getting a similar result...
/usr/local/bin/panxapi -h 192.168.x.x -K asdfasdfasdasdfasdasdf -CD
.
.
.
$VAR1 = {
action => 'commit',
type => 'config',
key => 'asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf'
};
API response:
<response status = 'error' code = '400'><result><msg>Illegal value for parameter "action" [commit]. Should be one of : [clone, complete, delete, edit, get, rename, set, show].</msg></result></response>$VAR1 = {
status => 'error',
result => {
msg => 'Illegal value for parameter "action" [commit]. Should be one of : [clone, complete, delete, edit, get, rename, set, show].'
},
code => '400'
};
commit: Illegal value for parameter "action" [commit]. Should be one of : [clone, complete, delete, edit, get, rename, set, show]. status="error" code="400"
Can someone help?

on 4.1.3 use: panxapi -C "<commit></commit>"

Thanks for the reply but I get the same error message...
/usr/local/bin/panxapi -h 192.168.x.x -K asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf -CD "<commit></commit>"
}, 'PAN::XAPI' );
$VAR1 = {
action => 'commit',
type => 'config',
key => 'asdfasdasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf'
};

try panxapi -C "<commit></commit>" -D
I'm seeing:
API version: 2
$VAR1 = {
cmd => '<commit></commit>',
type => 'commit', key => 'dsfdsaofofuofdlkfjdlfjds'
};
API response:<response status="success" code="19"><result><msg><line>Commit job enqueued with jobid 20</line></msg><job>20</job></result></response>Content-Type: application/xml
$VAR1 = { status => 'success', result => { msg => { line => 'Commit job enqueued with jobid 20' }, job => '20' }, code => '19'};commit: success: Commit job enqueued with jobid 20
When I tried your version I got:
panxapi -CD "<commit></commit>"
commit: Illegal value for parameter "cmd"

Your error messages sure look like you are still using PAN-perl-20110828 instead of PAN-perl-20111226. Is your perl path correct?

Thanks - you were right. My test machine was using latest code, my production machine was one behind. Sorry to take your time, but thanks for the clarification.
Include the -C "<commit></commit>" and it works.

please create .panrc file and have your key/credentilas listed in that file.
for example
ksomu@ksomu-VirtualBox:~/pan/PAN-perl-20111226/bin$ cat ~/.panrc
username=admin
password=admin
api_username=admin
api_password=admin
hostname=10.2.133.15
export TEMPLATE_HOME=/home/ksomu/pan/PAN-perl-20111226/templates/
ksomu@ksomu-VirtualBox:~/pan/PAN-perl-20111226/bin$ panxapi -C
commit: success: Commit job enqueued with jobid 5
ksomu@ksomu-VirtualBox:~/pan/PAN-perl-20111226/bin$ panxapi -Xrpo 'show jobs id "5"'
op: success
$VAR1 = {
job => {
warnings => {
line => [
'Interface ethernet1/14.10 has no zone configuration.',
'Interface ethernet1/14.10 has no virtual-router configuration.'
]
},
progress => '16:13:45',
status => 'FIN',
details => {
line => 'Configuration committed successfully'
},
stoppable => 'no',
tenq => '2012/03/07 16:13:27',
tfin => '16:13:45',

type => 'Commit',
result => 'OK'
}
};
