Thank you!  I was sure I grepped through the config directory for dev servername ... but apparently not well enough. Your list helped. The offending value was 

XYMONSERVERWWWNAME=

The "Jump to page" option causes findhost.cgi to call a URL at using $XYMONWEBHOST as the server name.  This is typically defined in xymonserver.cfg, and given the value of $XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME.  Try searching for the dev server name in xymonserver.cfg.


I generally use packages for this purpose.  If I compile my own Xymon, I then package it up and deploy it where I want it by installing the package.
But copying should work, assuming the relevant settings are adjusted on each server, such as XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME and XYMONSERVERIP, and optionally XYMONSERVERWWWNAME.

I compiled xymon-4.3.10 on a development server. Now I copied the "install" over to a production server. Here is what I see.

if I do a findhost via

http://prodserver/xymondev1-cgi/findhost.sh


if the checkbox Jump to page is checked - it "jumps" to the development server. If I uncheck the box - it shows a link which works correctly.


If there is a better/approved way to move the installed code ... let me know!
