      Description

      When IGB first launches, it tries to contact the old wiki host to show the IGB user guide.

      I set up a redirection host that is supposed to redirect any request for "wiki.transvar.org" to the BioViz help page.

      Instead, what's happening is that the redirection is going to:

      https://bioviz.org/help.htmlconfluence/display/igbman/Quick+Start

      Fix this.

            I've deployed a host "Redirector" (34.199.0.187) which redirects transvar domain requests to either jira.bioviz.org or wiki.bioviz.org.
            Logging into the host to reconfigure the wiki redirection.
            Added AL and NF public keys to the list of authorized logins.

            I think the above problem may be due to my browser caching the redirection. My Safari browser does not exhibit the same problem.
            However, I think I should modify the intended redirection so that transvar wiki links will properly redirect to bioviz wiki pages.

            Replaced above configuration with:

            <VirtualHost *:443>
                ServerName wiki.transvar.org

                RewriteEngine on
                RewriteRule	"^/?(.*)" "https://wiki.bioviz.org/$1" [R=301,L]
            

            This appears to be working.

            To test:

            1. Start IGB
            2. Select Help > Go to IGB User's Guide

            What should happen is that your Web browser should open, showing the following URL:

            Please check.

            update:

            • attaching configuration files for the redirector ec2
            • copied "conf.d" directory from ec2 (amazon linux) to my local

            next steps:

            • modify bioviz playbooks to include the redirector configurations
            • obtain ssl certs for transvar.org

            This is needed to support older versions of IGB which try to open the user's guide home page on startup.
