    Description:
    We are upgrading from version 17 to version 20. We have a Web server, with Apache on it, separate from our Aleph application server. The user enters the URL for this Web server to connect to the OPAC.

    In this v20 OPAC we find that the www_server running on the Web server, with the generic USM screens and data, is being used rather than the www_server on the application server with our data.

    This works correctly in version 17.

    Resolution:
    The Web server ./alephe/apache/conf/httpd.conf had this line:

    ServerAddr 127.0.0.1

    Changing this to:

    ServerAddr alapp.abc.edu [the address of the application server]

    and restarting apache corrected the problem.
