[ome-devel] Omeis server sertting

[Curtis Rueden]

Hi Bernd,

Not to say it's not a bug, but needing to drop the DB seems a little
extreme. Instead of doing that, couldn't you just manually update the
DB entry to the new setting? E.g.:

% psql ome
Welcome to psql 8.0.7, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

Type:  \copyright for distribution terms
      \h for help with SQL commands
      \? for help with psql commands
      \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
      \q to quit

ome=# select * from repositories;
 attribute_id | module_execution_id |                 image_server_url
               | path | is_local
--------------+---------------------+--------------------------------------------------+------+----------
           4 |                   1 |
http://skyking.microscopy.wisc.edu/cgi-bin/omeis |      | f
(1 row)
ome=# update repositories set
image_server_url='http://skyking.microscopy.wisc.edu/cgi-bin/omeis'
where module_execution_id=1;
UPDATE 1
ome=# \q
%

Or is that insufficient?
