copy compiled server code from dev to prod
list Bakkies Gatvol
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!

Bakkies 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. J

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=
