Jira URL duplicate after changing base hostname

Systems Support Team

Hi everyone,

I updated my Jira Software in Virtual Server from https://jira.host1.com to https://jira.host2.com following these articles:

- https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-change-the-base-url-in-jira-1005786896.html

- https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/change-the-base-url-of-jira-server-in-the-database-733940375.html

After upgrading my Jira server switched to the new hostname but I met these issues below:

1. In browser, when I press Ctrl + left click to open ticket in the new tab, the new tab open a wrong URL https://jira.host2.comhttps//jira.host2.com/browse/ticket-number

2. In Dashboard, when I click on Add Gadget > Load more gadget > the Add Gadget window close

3. In Backlog, when I press Ctrl + left click to open ticket in the new tab, the window flicks 1 time before open this ticket in the new tab

I found these error in log file but I'm not sure it's related to duplicate hostname

Point 1 in your list of symptoms looks very much like the base url is set incorrectly, like you've added the new url to the old one, rather than replaced it. That would also be one way to achieve both point 2 and 3 as well.

I would also want to check the settings on any proxies you may have, and then any context settings in the Tomcat connector, but please double-check the base url first

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- ,

I follow the proxy configuration in this article https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver0712/configuring-apache-reverse-proxy-using-the-ajp-protocol-959314162.html . During updating base URL, I don't touch to the proxy so I think it's not able a root cause.

For this advise "added the new url to the old one, rather than replaced it", could you share me more more details because I just know 1 method to follow the article of Atlassian and I'm in trouble with it.

If you didn't change the proxy, how does it know it is now supposed to be serving Jira on the new url?

>For this advise "added the new url to the old one, rather than replaced it", could you share me more more details

When you go into general configuration and amend the base url, did you append instead of copying?

I mean, if the field had:

https://jira.host1.com

when you changed it to the new host, did you accidentally put in

https://jira.host2.comhttps//jira.host2.com

instead of

https://jira.host2.com

- I ask because what you are seeing is exactly what I would expect to see if you'd put the base url in twice.

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- ,

For Apache proxy configuration, I just replaced jira.hostname1.com by jira.hostname2.com and ketp all other settings.

For Base URL in Jira settings, I replaced jira.hostname1.com by jira.hostname2.com. I have just checked for sure and no expand https://jira.hostname2.comjira.hostname2.com there. I also followed the article to replace all details that related to jira.hostname1.com by jira.hostname2.com

Another detail is our Jira Maintenance license was expired on 2018, but I don't think it's a reason.
