<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>==Replacing the operating system todo list==<br /> Make paranoid backup copies of the SQL databases and SVN repositories -- Scott&#039;s job for Tuesday evening.<br /> <br /> ===Critical===<br /> ;Are we going to have any issues with userids changing?! ie, will permissions get all screwed up when we recreate the various accounts?<br /> :I guess we can gaurantee that userids don&#039;t change, by recreating users with the -u switch (see man useradd).<br /> :Here&#039;s a [[list of our current users]].<br /> <br /> ;Reconfigure apache<br /> :Hopefully copying the appropriate sections from the old /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf is all that&#039;s needed.<br /> <br /> ;Reinstall SQL 4.0<br /> :See instructions at the top of this page.<br /> <br /> ;Restoring the SQL databases<br /> :I can&#039;t work out where SQL is installed, let alone where it keeps its database files. This is definitely the scary part! --[[User:Scott|Scott]] 19:56, 10 Oct 2006 (EDT)<br /> :In addition to doing an sqldump and restore (What&#039;s the procedure for restoring? I don&#039;t know at all!) we may have to reconfigure the SQL users and passwords.<br /> <br /> ;Reconfigure the firewall<br /> :See /etc/iptables-firewall.conf<br /> <br /> ;Reinstall SVN<br /> :Requires finding the RHEL3 rpms.<br /> <br /> ;Check that up2date works<br /> :We&#039;d previously had problems because Scott had installed python2.4, without all the necessary addons. See above.<br /> <br /> ===Not so critical===<br /> ;Reinstalling a modern java VM<br /> ;Installing ant<br /> <br /> ===Not critical===<br /> *Get the omath mailing lists working again.<br /> **This is probably unlikely; I never documented what I was doing, and I remember there being quite a few configuration files that needed changes...<br /> **Everthing is in /usr/local/mailman, I think?<br /> *Make sure jira and fisheye start automatically.<br /> *Check mysqladmin and webalizer still work? They should.</div>
