How to Enter New HDA Install Code after IP Address & HDA Change, Amahi 8

Postby hardrockgeo » Sat Oct 08, 2016 11:50 am

I deleted my HDA to change my IP address for my new service provider. I now need to enter the new install code.
I have 5 Apps installed. These are the questions I have:
1) How do I remove the apps before entering the new install code?
2) Do I have to do it through a terminal window?
3) How do I find out the correct file names to remove?
4) How do I enter the new install code in Amahi 8?
5) Can I use "hda-new-install -f NEWINSTALLCODE" (replacing the NEWINSTALLCODE with my new install code)? (I found this in the FAQ Section.)

I'm fairly new to Linux, just know enough to be dangerous. My Fedora 21 server locked up, went into read only mode & wouldn't let me log in as root after the IP Address change. I was eventually able to log in as root and would now like to get my HDA working again. I am able to log into my Control Panel and the Status is "Waiting install'. The Domain, HDA IP Address, etc... all look good.

Thanks for your help.

There is not uninstall or reinstall for Amahi. Sorry to say, but you pretty much have hosed your HDA.

Since you removed your HDA from the amahi.org control panel and created a new one, you will need to start over.

That means new OS install, followed by Amahi.

There was no need to remove your HDA for a new IP address. That could have been done via support channels and/or a few simple commands.

Best for situations such as this you ask before doing.

BTW, Amahi 9 is the latest and you should install that version since you will be starting over from scratch.

Thanks

Well, lesson learned.
Will upgrading to Amahi 9 wipe my data?

What's the best way to back up my server data with a terminal using a monitor hooked up to my server?
