Change IP Address of Server

[Paul Muloin]

running sitebuilder 4.1 on Debian 4

We changed the IP address on the server and lost access to sitebuilder.

I updated the DNS for the master domain from where sitebuilder is called (sitebuilder.plesk01.cableweb.ca) and also tried changing it in 2 other files I found relating to sitebuilder as follows

opt/sitebuilder/config ...changed line to point to new IP
etc/hosts ..edited line referring to server IP

still unable to access sitebuilder login page

I restored the IP's so I was able to get in again and noticed that in sitebuilder>>server>>hosts there was 2 hosts created there. One is ftp.cableweb.ca owned by Admin and another using the old IP address as the host name owned by the reseller account.

I am not able to edit the host record, keeps giving error saying reached max number of hosts. I tried deleting the host from the list to re-add using the new IP but after removing the old one the Add New Host icon remains greyed out so cannot add new record or restore the old one.

please outline the steps required to change the IP address of a server using sitebuilder

Change IP Address for Sitebuilder - FIX

Here are the steps we made to get sitebuilder to work with a new IP address

the following files all have references to the IP sitebuilder uses, edit each of them to use the new IP

/opt/sitebuilder/config
/etc/hosts
/etc/apache2/conf.d/zz011_sitebuilder.conf

update the A record in the DNS for the domain sitebuilder is running on

restart Apache service
