Problem during change of blogs base URL

[demohunden]

I wanted to move my blog to www.domain.com instead of www.domain.com/serendipity.

At first I changed the base dir in apache to /serendipity/. So now I can reach it from www.domain.com

But all the links inside the blog refers to www.domain.com/serendipity/ so I changed the blogs URL in config admin and that worked.

But now when I try to login to admin I can only login and then when I try to do anything I get to the login page again, cant do anything. I guess the admin thinks I have no right to be logged in since the url is changed? How do I change it back since I cant do any admin changes?

Hi!

Did you try to delete your cookies in the browser and/or try to use a different brower for testing if it could be cookie related?

When you have access to phpMyAdmin, you might want to check the serendipity_config DB table and see if there are any other Path variables that need adapting. Usually it's the "baseURL" and "serendipityHTTPPath" values that both need change, not only "baseURL".

Yes I only changed the the url that is in the bottom of the admin page in serendipity.

do you mean I have to login to the sql database and do this manually now or is there a way to reset the blog?

it is not cookie related.

Okay, that was one too few then.

Yes, you now need to do that using phpmyadmin. Or you reset your apache to point to the old s9y path, then login to s9y (that should then work again) and then changes paths again?
