Site Settings and Field Reconfiguration

2019 status: Current

Site settings are located in /usr/share/buendia/site and consist of numbered files. Higher numbers take precedence over lower ones.

To see all the settings that are currently in effect:

edison# buendia-settings

When you edit, add, or remove files in /usr/share/buendia/site, that changes the settings reported by buendia-settings. It does not apply the settings to MySQL, OpenMRS, Tomcat, the network interfaces, etc. To apply the settings (e.g. change actual passwords):

edison# buendia-reconfigure

This will shut down and restart MySQL, Tomcat, the network, etc. if necessary. If the settings appear not to have changed, it will not shut down the subsystem.

To reconfigure a single subsystem:

edison# buendia-reconfigure networking

Because buendia-reconfigure networking will bring down the network connection you are using, it is strongly recommended that you run screen -h 100000 to put all your actions in a screen session before you do this. Then when you switch wifi networks and reconnect, you can screen -r to restore your terminal session where you left off, and scroll back through what happened while you were disconnected.
