Create or move LOCAL repository in/to custom local hard drive

[peterkmiecik]

Hi !
1. I want to create local Repository on my hard drive in custom folder location
but PSCM doesn't allow me to choose location. 

So I tried already:
- https://plasticscmsupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008263854-How-to-move-the-Plastic-SCM-server-to-a-new-machine
doesnt work as I can not access webadmin from any "port link"
- below topic doesnt work - followed steps twice,  got same errors as he

- copying jet folder to new location, and fiddling with various config files doesnt work
- https://www.plasticscm.com/documentation/administration/plastic-scm-version-control-administrator-guide#ConfigurePlasticSCMwithJet
this doesnt work either, "Cannot connect to the PSCM server..."

Please help

USING THE JET.CONF FILE
using this method seems to create Repository, I can create Workspace.
though the specified location in jet.conf is never filled with any files, even though I am doing commits on workspace with many files.
Same goes for original: C:\Program Files\PlasticSCM5\server\jet (no new Rep_X folders)

Just wanted to make sure: is this then working correctly ?
previously before change new Rep_X folders were created and filled fith some files

Hi Peter,

Using the jet.conf file is the way to go. With it, you can specify where the repositories should be created. A new "jet" folder will be there with the repos inside. If you create a new repo, a new folder inside the jet one should be created named "rep_X" where the X stands for the number of the repo.

Keep in mind that it will start creating them there, not move the old ones. 

What version are you using? I guess this is a cloud edition, right? Can you share your jet.conf file?

 

Best,

Héber.
