site_url change doesn't stay

📦 Install & Upgrade Help

Can anyone tell me why changing site_url in config_php from the server IP to the domain name doesn’t survive a server reboot.

If I don’t reboot the server it will stay as the domain name and all my links in emails will show the domain name and work outside the network. If I reboot the server the IP address is back in this line and the links show the IP address which won’t work for anyone outside the network.

Thanks

Weird. Maybe you have something in config_override.php?

Does the change survive a Quick Repair and Rebuild?

I assume you don’t have any kind of reboot script changing config files for you…

The change does survive a Quick Repair & Rebuild.

The config_override.php doesn’t look to have anything in it that would revert the site_url back to the IP.

<?php /***CONFIGURATOR***/ $sugar_config['default_module_favicon'] = false; $sugar_config['dashlet_auto_refresh_min'] = '30'; $sugar_config['stack_trace_errors'] = false; $sugar_config['developerMode'] = false; $sugar_config['email_xss'] = 'YToxMzp7czo2OiJhcHBsZoiYXBwbGV0IjtzOjQ6I$ $sugar_config['dbconfigoption']['collation'] = 'utf8_general_ci'; $sugar_config['default_currency_name'] = 'Canadian Dollar'; $sugar_config['default_currency_iso4217'] = 'CAD'; $sugar_config['aos']['quotes']['initialNumber'] = '139'; $sugar_config['http_referer']['list'][0] = 'crm.example.com'; $sugar_config['email_allow_send_as_user'] = true; /***CONFIGURATOR***/ I am unsure of any script that would do this. I am not proficient in linux so am using a Bitnami built stack that I update. I will have to look into what scripts they include. Thanks

This turned out to be a Bitnami issue. Their configuration tool that was running on startup (bnconfig) was the issue and disabling it as they recommend has fixed it.

Thanks
