How to change host url for configured repository after original host is unreachable

yogesh_devi

Hello Bamboo experts ,

I am using  Atlassian Bamboo version 8.1.8 build 80116 

I have existing bamboo build plans that were running fine till I migrated the bitbucket repositories used by these build plans to a different host ( and hence a new URL) .

Sadly since the original host is not reachable - bamboo web gui does not allow me to examine repositories 

Deleting and recreating the repositories is a risky option because the  branch information is embedded in repository definitionion and since the repository information no longer shows up in web gui

It seems that the repository database information in database is kept in XML documents and I'd possibly need Xpath expressions to extract host information.

I need accurate branch and repository information to avoid breaking build plans if I use worng branches.

So I need a way to

-  either change the host URL through database

- or to examine the repositories through database to extract repository and branch information and then recreate the  repositories

I am seeking ideas on how to go about any of above 

 

Thanks a lot for your help 

 

Yogesh

Hello @yogesh_devi

Bamboo allows you to change the repository URL by recreating its Application Link and resaving each Linked Repository so it will "catch" the new Git SSH URL. Please check the following documentation for more instructions:

• How to update Bitbucket Server address / URL in Bamboo

Depending on the number of Plans x Repositories you have, you may also consider applying the workaround listed on the following Feature Request to make the changes in bulk:

• BAM-18273 - Ability to bulk update Bitbucket Server/Stash repository URLs
