Changes in DA = Revert to Old IP = Apache Test Page

[davef8]

We migrated a client from one Virtual Server to another Virtual Server a number of months ago. Now whenever the user makes changes in DA that effect their httpd.conf file DA changes all the IP addresses in that user's (admin) httpd.conf file to the old IP address from the previous server.

This causes all of his sites to show the Apache Test page because of the invalid IP DA has placed in their httpd.conf file.

We looked everywhere to determine where the old IP address is know to DA but could not find it. It's not in any of the ips.conf files and it's not in the master httpd.conf file either.

How can we prevent this from happening?

I'd try:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/users
grep -r old.dotted.ip.addy *

I think all that data should be in there somewhere...

Thanks for the tip. I was able to track down the file that had the old IP address. Once I changed the IP the problem went away.
