Change of IP address to domainname on site

huseyina

Hi All,
Where can I change from IP to domain name on the site URL’s? Currently some URL contains domainname and some url contains ip address of the server (installation was done using ipaddress).

Tried to find database settings, files on server, settings on site without luck. Also grep shows only session folders on filesystem.

Thanks in advance.

Hi mlattke,

Thank you, app.php was already modified, but changing ip addresses of database.php makes database connection disconnection, so i’ve changed them back to 127.0.0.1 as before.

huseyina Hello, last time I replied from phone. What’s exactly what you want to achieve?

Hi mlattke,

The situation is that i have installed using local network ip address (172.17.1.16), and found out that i need domain name to be the url eg. http://mysetup.xxx.

So what i want exactly:

http://172.19.1.16
changed to
http://mysetup.xxx

I have changed app.php the URL setting to match the new value. I have also been looking for the text pattern ‘172.19.1.16’ in ubuntu file system and found only session folder containing this text pattern.
I have looked for a URL value in the database by using phpmyadmin with no luck.

Admin login shows correct with mysetup.xxx but once I click on a location, the url changes to 172.19.1.16 which makes the site unavailable from the internet.

Also when i look for the SLUG value, it starts with http://172.19.1.16/

I hope it’s more clear what i want.

Thanks.

In case anyone is curious, I think I solved this by modifying the .env file on a Linux install. The APP_URL environment variable is defined there.
