Searched GitHub Issues

  • I have searched GitHub for the issue.

Describe the Scenario

I've updated my local domain name and now, when I try to access Bookstack frontend, it redirects me to the old domain name.

  • Old name: bookstack.old
  • New name: bookstack.new

The host is set to the new name.

$ hostname -f
bookstack.new

The Apache config is already set to the new name.

/etc/apache2/sites-available/bookstack.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName bookstack.new
  ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
  DocumentRoot /var/www/bookstack/public/
  <Directory /var/www/bookstack/public/>

      AllowOverride None
      Require all granted
      <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
          <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
              Options -MultiViews -Indexes
          </IfModule>

          RewriteEngine On

          # Handle Authorization Header
          RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
          RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

          RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
          RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]

          # Handle Front Controller...
          RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
          RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
          RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
      </IfModule>
  </Directory>

I've also tried to update the URL path.

@bookstack:/var/www/bookstack$ php artisan bookstack:update-url http://bookstack.old http://bookstack.new

 This will search for "http://bookstack.old" in your database and replace it with  "http://bookstack.new".

Be sure to run "php artisan cache:clear" to clear any old URLs in the cache.

   INFO  Application cache cleared successfully.

However, when I try to access its frontend, it keeps redirecting me to the old domain name.

$ curl http://127.0.0.1
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8" />
        <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url='http://bookstack.old/login'" />

        <title>Redirecting to http://bookstack.old/login</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        Redirecting to <a href="http://bookstack.old/login">http://bookstack.old/login</a>.
    </body>
</html>

/var/log/apache2/access.log

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Apr/2024:11:43:18 -0300] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 302 1905 "-" "curl/7.81.0"

With all this, I'm unable to access Bookstack.
Only if I add an entry to my DNS for the old domain name can I access it.

I just can't see what the problem is. Any thoughts on this matter?
Thanks.
