Only a couple of things come to mind. How did you change your hostname? What does 'hostname -f' return? What is in /etc/hosts?

Hi,
I have changed the name on my server hosting Xymon server, a Ubuntu 16.04. But Xymon server do seem to still use the old hostname:
The old name was "mail1":
- I get ghost report: "127.0.0.1 mail1 mail 0:38", I have shutdown Xymon client, to isolate that it is coming from the Xymon server.
- the link in alert mails is "http://mail1/xymon-cgi...."
- A "ps" is showing: "sh -c vmstat 300 2 1>/home/xymon/client/tmp/xymon_vmstat.mail1.7997 2>&1; mv /home/xymon/client/tmp/xymon_vmstat.mail1.7997 /home/xymon/client/tmp/xymon_vmstat.mail1"
Here is what I have done:
- Used hostnamectl to change hostname, but have also being over /etc/hostname and hosts.
- Changed the host in hosts.cfg in Xymon server.
- Used the 'xymon 127.0.0.1 "rename OLDHOSTNAME NEWHOSTNAME"'
- I have deleted the old make file and run make clean, and configured, build, and installed all over again.
- I have search for mail1 string in Xymon folder, and found nothing.
My gold is to have the right URL in the alert mails. But it is also annoying me what I have done wrong...
