Hello World!
Im going to update and move my oc-installation, from Debian Wheezy and OC 8.2.11 to Debian Stretch and OC 10.
In this szenario I also want to change the domain / url.
How can I change the domain stored in the client under win7?
Can I just go in the config file under appdata/local/owncloud and change the domain from 123.xy to 456.xy?
I just want to prevent a new synchronisation, because there several 100.000s of files stored in the cloud…
Regards,

Hey @klausguenter! From client version 2.4 on, you can set a permanent (301) redirection on your old ownCloud domain pointing to its new location and the client will adapt on next restart. Here’s the issue for reference:
Manually switching the server URL by editing the config files is unsupported (and might cause unexpected behavior) but you can find info about it on https://central.owncloud.org/t/change-server-without-re-downloading-everything
Best,
hi there,
thx for your reply.
I moved the owncloud-installation from one server to another successfully.
It was possible to change the hostname in the config file under %appdata%/local/owncloud.
the permanent redirection was no option in my scenario.
