[EP-tech] Change of EPrints machine name

CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.

I would like to safely transition from EPrints 3.4.1 to 3.4.5, and upgrading the OS from CentOS 7.9.2 to Rocky 9.2

 

I now have the original machine called: repository and the new,  temporary machine  called: newrepository

 

The newrepository machine has:

                Rocky Linux 9.2

apache/2.4.53

mysqld 10.5.16-MariaDB

LetsEncrypt

 

The /opt/eprints directory has been copied over and the mysql has been dump and reloaded into the newrepository machine.

 

While I am able to view the home page of newrepository machine, all of the menus and links all point back to the original repository server.

 

Where are all of the places I need to change the “repository” machine name to “newrepository” in the configuration files?

Does the mysql database have the server name embedded within it as well?

 

There seems to be thousands of cached files, which have the old machine name within the URLs in the files. (e.g. /opt/eprints/archives/myrepo/html/en/index.html)

Not able to login as admin to rebuild them, since I end up back to the original machine.

 

Thanks
