CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I changed the domain for a test server and now I am getting a mix of links with the old domain name and the new domain name. The majority of the links are correct, but the links to contribution pages still show the old domain name and the system workflow templates still show the old domain name as well as a few other spots. In addition, I can't force secure url's because the ssl cert is for the new domain, but the validation checks for enabling ssl must be using the old domain.

I changed the base_url in the config, rebuilt the menus, reset the backend config and emptied my templates_c folder. I also searched through the civicrm db for any references to the old domain and there are none. Is there anything else I need to do to get my install to work with the new domain?

Thanks for your help

Hi Kiran,

Thanks for the suggestions. It turns out that my updated civicrm.settings.php file wasn't being uploaded. I ssh'd into my server to clear the templates_c directory one last time and I decided to check the copies of the settings files on the server. When I looked at the civicrm settings file, it still had the old domain name. I deleted the file from the command line and re-uploaded the changed version and everything worked.

I don't know why it was never overwritten, but I will check more carefully in the future.
