Jean-Philippe Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I want to change the basic URL of my site from "domain. com" to "www.domain.com". I know I have to update the base_url variable in conf_global. php and update the licenced url in the client area, then run the support tool to rebuild the datastore file. But... 1. Is it necessary to respect a delay between the modification of the licenced url in the client area and the update of conf_global. php 2. in what order should the changes be made so that there is no service interruption? 3. How long will the rebuild of the datastore file take for a site with 40.000 members and 1,500,000 posts in forums ?

Nathan Explosion Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 1. You don't have to wait for the license URL to be updated at all....do that AFTER you've done the conf_global.php and cleared the server cache (what you call 'rebuild the datastore') 2. A few seconds - it's nothing to do with number of members and number of posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhett Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 The datastore is instant, and there isn't any delay, once you edit the conf_global.php file, and clear the cache, you are all set on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Philippe Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 OK ... I have updated the value of base-url in conf_global.php ("domain.com replaced by "www.domain.com"). But I have this error when trying to update the licenced URL : There seems to still be a installation of Invision Community at the URL on file. Before you can change the URL, you must first remove the existing installation. Error code: R02 Of course, an installation is at the actual url, because the actual url is "domain.com", which is an alias to www.domain.com on our server My new question is : is it necessary to update the licenced url when the old url is domain.com and the new url is www.domain.com ?
