Moving jira from one server to another and changing the base URL

EHQS

Hello - that's me again.....

I took my decision to install V 5.2.5 on our new server and then (maybe) upgrade to 6.x

The installation an the import of the old content worked and I can access to Jira. The big question is now why the base URL shows to our old server  http://xyz.de instead http://xyz.com.

I changed the base URL in the configuration of the new Jira installation but no chance. When I change this base URL the old installation the same error occurs when I log in on the old Jira on http://xyz.de

I have no idea what to do :-(

Did you change it on the server.xml file?

Yes, I did:

<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="xyz.com">
            <Host name="xyz.com" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">

 Is there someone who works also with Windows?

I hope to find an answer!

Why did you change the server.xml like that?  It does not need changing away from the default if you are just running Jira on http://something:8080  (it does need changing for your port of 8050, but that's not mentioned in your question, so I guess it's working ok)

That is however, the second place I'd look.  If you click on the "click here" in the warning message, it should take you to "General Config" where you need to change the base url to the new url.
