Reactivate domain

Purpose

to reactivate a domain name in the registration database after a successful delete operation.

This transaction is used when a domain name was deleted while it was not the intention to do so. The REACTIVATE will re-establish the name in the same state as before the deletion. See the topic ‘Delete, quarantine and reactivate’.

The elements and tags that are relevant for DNS Belgium are specified below. Tags that are optional can be omitted without producing an XML parsing error. Some components of the command need further explanation:

• <domain:name> is required. It specifies the domain name to reactivate, with or without a trailing .be.

Please refer to the examples to see a complete request.

Examples

A correct reactivate command:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0"
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
     xmlns:domain="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:domain-1.0"
     xsi:schemaLocation="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0 epp-1.0.xsd
               urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:domain-1.0 domain-1.0.xsd">
<command>
  <reactivate>
    <domain:reactivate>
      <domain:name>greatdomain.be</domain:name>
    </domain:reactivate>
  </reactivate>
  <clTRID>clientref-00028</clTRID>
</command>
</epp>

After a successful operation, the EPP server will respond with:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0">
  <response>
    <result code="1000">
      <msg>Command completed successfully</msg>
    </result>
    <trID>
      <clTRID>clientref-00028</clTRID>
      <svTRID>dnsbe-2850</svTRID>
    </trID>
  </response>
</epp>

If you try to reactivate a domain name that doesn’t belong to you, the response is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0" xmlns:dnsbe="http://www.dns.be/xml/epp/dnsbe-1.0">
  <response>
    <result code="2304">
      <msg>Object status prohibits operation</msg>
    </result>
    <extension>
      <dnsbe:ext>
        <dnsbe:result>
          <dnsbe:msg>Domain [domain-agent0-quarantine] does not belong to you</dnsbe:msg>
        </dnsbe:result>
      </dnsbe:ext>
    </extension>
    <trID>
      <clTRID>reactivate-domain-00</clTRID>
      <svTRID>dnsbe-739546</svTRID>
    </trID>
  </response>
</epp>

If the domain names isn’t in quarantine, the response is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<epp xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:epp-1.0" xmlns:dnsbe="http://www.dns.be/xml/epp/dnsbe-1.0">
  <response>
    <result code="2304">
      <msg>Object status prohibits operation</msg>
    </result>
    <extension>
      <dnsbe:ext>
        <dnsbe:result>
          <dnsbe:msg>Domain [tfw-create-basic-domain-1330087857844] has invalid status</dnsbe:msg>
        </dnsbe:result>
      </dnsbe:ext>
    </extension>
    <trID>
      <clTRID>reactivate-domain-00</clTRID>
      <svTRID>dnsbe-739547</svTRID>
    </trID>
  </response>
</epp>
