On occasion, you may need to reinitialize CollectionSpace's Application layer for a specific tenant. Among other things, this causes the Application layer to re-read its configuration files.

To do so:

Log into your tenant in a browser.
Visit the following URL in that same browser:

http://<ip-address>:8180/collectionspace/tenant/{your_museum}/init (for the core tenant, after logging into that tenant)

where {your_museum} is the short name of your museum's tenant in CollectionSpace.

For instance, for the demonstration core and lifesci tenants, the following commands will re-initialize the Application layer for each of these tenants, respectively:

http://<ip-address>:8180/collectionspace/tenant/core/init (for the core tenant, after first logging into that tenant in your browser)

http://<ip-address>:8180/collectionspace/tenant/lifesci/init (for the lifesci tenant, after first logging into that tenant in your browser)

The reinitialization process may typically take some 5-20 seconds. It will display an error (even if at times a somewhat technical one, such as a programmer's "stack trace") directly in your web browser if any error occurred during that process.
