Change Hostname Problem

[jeepou]

Hi all,

Sorry to disturb here, on a fresh VestaCP install, I have a little problem with the command:

v-change-sys-hostname mail.domain.com

it's return me a "v-change-sys-hostname: command not found"

Is there any solution about that? or other manual way to change the hostname?

Thank you so much.

My problem is that the command works, but it doesn't persist after rebooting. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Haha.
My assumption ..
This could be your ubuntu updated to 16.04. By default Ununtu16.04 BIN path directory have to do some changes.

You must make diferrence betwen:
1. your server hostname
2. vestacp configuration of your server ip and hostname

To change your server hostname you should use:

sudo hostnamectl set-hostname newhostname.yourdomain.com

change "newhostname.yourdomain.com" by relevant data. You should use a fully qualified domain name as in example and not only "yourdmain.com" as your server hostname. This will persist for ever, even after reboot.

On the other hand if you want to change the new hostname or ip you must do as Skurudo wrote above (/usr/local/vesta) and check that everything realy changed in Vestacp (because i had to it once and some files have to be edited by hand, there is no automatic way). You must go in several .config file in "/etc/user/config/web -or- dns" (replace user with your vestacp admin user: normally "admin") and in "/usr/local/vesta"

v-change-sys-hostname mail.domain.com

Данная команда у меня заработала после перезагрузки сервера (если после установки vestacp перезагрузку не делали, то и эта команда тоже не будет работать: /usr/local/vesta/bin/v-change-sys-hostname mail.domain.com).
