How to create a test instance on the production server

Prepare

1. Using a new user, download anew your version of Fisheye or if you have the old tarball, unpack it into a new directory.

2. Create a new directory and reference this location using the FISHEYE_INST environment variable.

Data

1. Copy the following two folders and one file to the new FISHEYE_INST:

• • /home/crucible/instances/inst-1/var

  • /home/crucible/instances/inst-1/cache

  • /home/crucible/instances/inst-1/config.xml

Update

1. Edit config.xml

   1. Update the control port to one not used on your system:

      From:

      1 <config control-bind="127.0.0.1:8059

      To:

      1  <config control-bind="127.0.0.1:8069

   2. Update the application port to one not used on your system:

      From:

      1 <http bind=":8060"/>

      To:

      1  <http bind=":8070"/>

   3. If your database is external you will need to create a copy of it and reference the copy:

      From:

      1 2 3 4 5 <database type="hsql"><connection dialect="org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect" driver="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver" jdbcurl="jdbc:hsqldb:file:/media/applications/drohan/app_data/fisheye/var/data/crudb/crucible" password="" username="sa" maxPoolSize="20" minPoolSize="6" driverSource="bundled"/><parameters>hsqldb.log_size=10 nsql.enforce_strict_size=true bonecp.idleMaxAgeInMinutes=5 hsqldb.default_table_type=memory </parameters></database>

      To:

      1 <database type=...

Once the steps above have been completed you can start the new application. Make sure that you use the new user so that the folder location referenced by FISHEYE_INST is indeed the new location.
