Change VCS Server Settings¶

If you need to manually configure the VCS Server settings on a RhodeCode Enterprise instance, use the following steps. If you have not installed a VCS Server, see Install a VCS Server.

Link a VCS Server to RhodeCode Enterprise¶

To configure a RhodeCode Enterprise instance to use a VCS Server, use the following steps:

Find the information of the specific VCS Server

$ rccontrol status

 - NAME: enterprise-1
 - STATUS: RUNNING
 - TYPE: Enterprise
 - VERSION: 3.5.0
 - VCS: None
 - URL: http://127.0.0.1:10001

 - NAME: vcsserver-1
 - STATUS: RUNNING
 - TYPE: VCSServer
 - VERSION: 3.5.0
 - URL: http://127.0.0.1:10000

Open the rhodecode.ini file for that particular instance. The default location is /home/<user>/.rccontrol/<instance-id>/rhodecode.ini
Set the vcs.server property to match those of your running VCS Server.

##################
### VCS CONFIG ###
##################
vcs.server.enable = true
vcs.server = 127.0.0.1:10000
vcs.server.log_level = info
vcs.start_server = false
vcs.backends = hg, git, svn
vcs.connection_timeout = 3600

Save the file and restart the RhodeCode Enterprise instance to pick-up the changes

$ rccontrol restart enterprise-1
Stopping instance: enterprise-1
Starting instance: enterprise-1

See that the RhodeCode Enterprise instance is linked to the right VCS Server server
