Moving to a different server
I have a working reviewboard site that needs to be moved to a different server. I am trying to figure out the best approach. I just started maintaining this site so I'm not super familiar with the product. I assume I would have to install everything I need on the new box. Maybe create a test site to check things. Than dump and import all the related mysql files. Can I just copy over the site directory structure? Anybody has notes on this? Thanks in advance. -- Charles Gagnon http://unixrealm.com charlesg at unixrealm.com -- Want to help the Review Board project? Donate today at http://www.reviewboard.org/donate/ Happy user?

Re: Moving to a different server
Hi Charles, Yeah, I'd start with a test install, but you should be able to just dump/import the SQL and copy over the entire site directory (make sure to preserve permissions).

Re: Moving to a different server
The move went pretty week and seems somewhere simple to do. The one problem I have now is user authentication. The siteconfiguration from the SQL backup seem to have AD authentication in there but it doesn't work and I can't figure out why? I can't even login with the admin user? Is there something I can do in mysql to flush all setings, clear passwords so I can easily login and rebuild my setting from there. I clear the password on one of my admin users and it still doesn't let me in. All I get constantly is "Incorrect username or password." Thanks for your help.

Re: Moving to a different server
It may have to do with the encrypted passwords in the database. These are based off your SECRET_KEY setting, which is typically computed for you during 'rb-site install'. Make sure that your new conf/settings_local.py has the same SECRET_KEY as the old one.

Re: Moving to a different server
Thanks Christian for all your help so far. Still struggling with this. I tried replacing the SECRET_KEY and they now match. Still not go. I've even tried 'rb-site manager createsuperuser' and the use I just created fails to login. Not sure what's going on. I get almost nothing in the log even though I've set "DEBUG = True" in settings.py. Any other leads? Any other way to start fresh authentication wise...

Re: Moving to a different server
May be worth shutting off AD and seeing if you can log in then. Obviously
you can't log in to do that, but this should work:
$ rb-site manage /path/to/site shell
>>> from djblets.siteconfig.models import SiteConfiguration
>>> siteconfig = SiteConfiguration.objects.get_current()
>>> siteconfig.set('auth_backend', 'builtin')
>>> siteconfig.save()
Then restart Apache. It should revert back to built-in auth. You can then
try your original or newly created superuser and see if that works.

Re: Moving to a different server
Huge progress... I was able to login. Discovered some packages were
missing and causing the problems. Namely python-ldap and PyLucene.
After adding these missing packages, I'm getting much better results.
We're finalizing the testing now but I think I'm close to done on the move.
Thanks again.
