i changed the domain associated with one of the virtual sites and now there's a rotate log error i get

errors occured while rotating /var/log/xferlog

Failed to open /home/sites/www.originaldomain.com/logs/ftp.log: No such file or directory


what do i edit to fix it so it recognises the domain i changed the virtual site to use ?

thanks

Did you modify it by hand?

no, i did it via the raq3 control panel

i went into edit the virtual site and in site settings changed the originaldomain.com to newdomain.com and saved the settings

if you just made the change, give the server a day or 2... you most likely still have some old stuff in the logs that couldn't go anywhere, thus the error message.

thanks.. looks like the number 1 thing with regards to server admin is patience :)

Unless you have a specific reason to change the domain name for a virtual site, I'd imagine it would be better to add the new dopmainas a fresh, new virtual site, and then delete the old one off the server. Same goes with IP addresses. Sometimes it doesn't seem to like it when you just change the IP address for an active site.

yeah i would do that if the site didn't have 200MB of site files under it.. if i deleted that site then i would delete all 200mb of files :(

still getting this error :(

Are these the two sites that you are getting errors for in the other thread? (The original site and the changed one)???

If you have files in one place you can telnet in and move them (mv). I still wouldn't change IP addresses nor names of sites through the comtrol panel. It may not have changed everything, thus you are getting errors.

no this error is on a totally different domain from the 2 others in the other post.. still no solution :(

if you wish to 'fix' it as requested, you will have to remove the actual link in /home/sites and repoint it to the right location.

For example, if /home/sites/www.yourdomain.com points to /home/sites/site3 but it needs to point to site25, simply do this:
su
[root pass]
rm http://www.yourdomain.com
ln -s site25 http://www.yourdomain.com

If the problem is different... let us know :)
