Q: Change the location of storage for Wiki server
Hello,
We're running Mac OS X server on 10.10 and are facing problems with lack of disk space for wiki uploads. The fill data seems to be uploaded to /Library/Server/Wiki/FileData which resides on the startup disk and thereby is limited by the available space here.
What I want is to change the location where files are stored to another attached (and backed up) storage. I have a Promise Raid of 5TB which should be perfect for the purpose.
I have tried to copy the FileData with permissions intact to the new location and change the FileDataPath entry in the collard.plist file in the Wiki folders Config folder so it is pointing to the new storage location.
Then from Terminal running:
sudo wikiadmin fixPermissions
sudo wikiadmin resetQuicklooks
sudo wikiadmin rebuildSearchIndex
No errors.
But the wiki can't find the files or the previews when you try to connect. If I try to upload something new it seems to be uploaded, but again: It can't be found again when you try to access it.
Anyone who are experienced with this (I should say obvious) need for more storage?
Xserve, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
