Reinstalling and changing the front server address

In the course of your work you may encounter various issues with the front server. This could be blocking, change of address, non-payment with loss of access.

Any front server problem is a sites problem, so it’s crucial to resolve them quickly and efficiently. We’ve put together two checklists to help with this.

Change of front server address

  1. Update the parking IP in the system site settings: Control → Settings → Sites → Site storage (Parking IP).
  2. Re-park existing domains (except the main system domain) to the new address. The parking procedure is described in detail here.
  3. Clear the system cache (MemCache or APCu, if neither is available — the Main data cache).
  4. Re-check the parked domains in the system: Control → Settings → Domains. They should show "OK" without SSL.
  5. Log into the server as root and run ./webssl.

Переустановка фронт-сервера

  1. Install the new front server according to the instructions using the command from Control → Settings → Diagnostics → Extension servers setup.

Perform steps 1–4 from the "Change of front server address" section.
