I am new to SolidCP have come up with an issue with SolidCP, and would like to know the best way to resolve it.

I have just migrated from a server running Website Panel.

I have 2 dnn websites, one is ddn 7 and the other is dnn 9

The dnn 9 one is my new site for which is currently use new.domainname1.com

The dnn 7 one has current production sites, domainname1.com and domainname2.com

I’m planning to separate the two sites onto to instances of dnn 9 (planning to sell one).

So on the new server I setup the dnn9 under the user newuser, with the domain name set as domainname1.com (thinking of the future).

The dnn7 website is setup with domainname2.com.

So at the moment I need to setup the domainname1.com and www.domainname1.com  as aliases on the dnn 7 website for now, then move them later.

I will also need to move domainname2.com from the current site to a new dnn 9 site after this.

Is it possible to change the main domain name on a website… to me this seems a bit of an odd restriction, and I have been unable to work out how to do this.

Hello,

It's currently not possible to change the main website domain.

Its only possible to add additional pointers to the website.

Most easy way is to simply create the site with the new domain, copy over files and your pretty much done (site files aren't attached to a specific database).

Regards,

Marco
