mr_germanreplaceafill, sure12:04
mr_germanreplaceafill, just give me the pass12:04
replaceafillmr_german, so we don't step on each other toes12:04
replaceafillmr_german, use the same password i set initially for your linode account12:05

mr_germank12:05

replaceafillmr_german, works12:09
replaceafillmr_german, thanks12:09
mr_germanreplaceafill, k12:10
replaceafillmr_german, i think nea4or.com-static.conf is a better name for the file12:11
replaceafillmr_german, oh and the domain is not .com12:11
replaceafillmr_german, it's .us12:11
mr_germanreplaceafill, done12:13
replaceafillmr_german, the name of the apache logs should follow the same name convention12:14
replaceafillmr_german, see the ErrorLog/CustomLog directives12:14
replaceafillerror-nea4or.us-static.log12:15
replaceafillaccess-nea4or...12:15
mr_germanwhere can I find the logs12:15
mr_german..12:15
replaceafillin the conf file12:16
replaceafilllook for those ^ directives12:16
replaceafillyou can also get rid of the default comments12:16
replaceafilland set ServerName to nea4or.us12:18
mr_germani'm confused12:18
mr_germanlol12:18
replaceafillok, let me do it12:19
replaceafillhold on12:19
mr_germank12:20
replaceafillmr_german, check the conf file now12:23
replaceafillmr_german, makes sense?12:24
mr_germanOh12:25
mr_germanthat's new to me replaceafill 12:25
replaceafillmr_german, i *think* you can get the conf file name from the environment12:25
replaceafillmr_german, that's the idea ;)12:25
replaceafillmr_german, but this works and you get to see some variable definition/substitution12:25
replaceafillmr_german, ok, now go to namecheap and change the dns12:26
replaceafillmr_german, remove the bluehost redirect12:26
mr_germanreplaceafill, ok, im in bluehost right now12:31

*** zOnny has joined #novawebdev12:59
replaceafillmr_german, you around?13:06
mr_germanyes 13:06
replaceafillmr_german, i've done something dumb13:07
replaceafillmr_german, https://gitlab.com/novawebdevelopment/webapps-linode13:07
replaceafillmr_german, i'd like to try that13:07
replaceafillmr_german, it's basically a way to version control "interesting" files in that server13:08
replaceafillmr_german, this is dangerous as hell, but useful :)13:08
mr_germanthis a private repository? replaceafill 13:09
replaceafillmr_german, yep13:10
mr_germanoh k13:10
mr_germanreplaceafill, i'll do the same thing with the php version :-D13:15
replaceafillmr_german, cool, but do it locally on your computer first, ok?13:16
mr_germank13:16
replaceafillmr_german, remember, this is a production vps now13:16
replaceafillmr_german, no playing around there13:16
replaceafillmr_german, contact jelkner and let him know that you finished transfering the site13:16
mr_germanreplaceafill, I'll send him an email13:17
replaceafillmr_german, cool13:17
replaceafillmr_german, see https://gitlab.com/novawebdevelopment/webapps-linode/commits/master13:28
replaceafillmr_german, you'll see i first added the ssh service configuration13:28
replaceafillmr_german, and then made a change to it to avoid dropping connections13:29
mr_germanreplaceafill, that's good13:29
replaceafillmr_german, now we have two files in that server being tracked13:29
replaceafillmr_german, so we know what configuration changes we have made13:29
mr_germanthis will be very useful13:30
replaceafillmr_german, remember, any configuration change you make to that server needs to land in this repository13:31
replaceafillmr_german, *any*13:31
mr_germanreplaceafill, got it13:31
replaceafillmr_german, cool :)13:31
replaceafilljelkner, are you around?13:35
