Hi,
I think i’ve saved the wrong public address onto eramba whenever I try to log on my ip address changes.
I tried to use the cli command : bin/cake settings set PUBLIC\_ADRESS Null but it says No such file or directory
how do I perform the cli command?
Kind regards

Hello,
From the explanation you provided, I’m not sure if you are running an on-premise or dockerized version. If you are running the dockerised version, you have to be inside the eramba container and in the folder eramba/app/upgrade.

Hello,
I’m running an on-premise version using VMWARE workstation 17 i’ve done the installation using the ovf link.
Every thing was working perfectly until i saved the public address. When I reboot eramba the IPV4 address given is 192.168.103.43. However when i try to login with my admin account the IP address changed to 192.168.131.129 which was the old IP address.
The reason why i need to manually change the Public Address. But i am not able to execute the command on my VMWare

You have to execute it inside eramba container as I wrote before.
To do that, on your host, run command:
`docker exec -it eramba bash`
now, you are inside docker container, you have to go to eramba/app/upgrade folder
`cd /var/www/eramba/app/upgrade`
and now you can execute the command
`bin/cake settings set PUBLIC_ADRESS NULL`

Thank you sam,
I tried to run the first command it returns: got permission denied while trying to connect to the docker daemon socket at : unix:///var/run/docker

You have to execute it as a root user. Therefore:
`sudo docker exec -it eramba bash`

Thanks the command has worked but i’ve stumble on another problem.
I am able to access eramba from the chrome navigator but when i put my admin credentials in it says that the site is not accessible (ERR\_CONNECTION\_REFUSED)
