Site Migration — Old ↔ New URL Map
Reference for the *.math.binghamton.edu → mathmig migration. Last updated 2026-08-11 — web vhosts are now cut over.
The department's public addresses (*.math.binghamton.edu) do not change when a service
migrates — the campus proxy keeps the name and now serves it from the new server (mathmig).
The *.mathmig.binghamton.edu addresses are the same content reached directly (handy for
testing/admin). Wiki pages keep working under every old link shape; dynamic reports and personal
pages keep the exact same paths.
Each table shows: ① the old (legacy) URL, ② the production URL people type (now served
from mathmig), and ③ the direct mathmig URL.
1. Wiki (DokuWiki)
Canonical page URL: /doku.php?id=<page> (or the short /<page> form). All legacy link
shapes now redirect to the correct page: /p/<page>, /wiki/<page>, /dokuwiki/<page>,
and /doku.php/<page>.
| Form | Example URL |
|---|---|
| ① Legacy | https://www2.math.binghamton.edu/p/research |
| ② Production | https://www2.math.binghamton.edu/doku.php?id=research — old /p/research and /wiki/research links redirect here |
| ③ Direct (mathmig) | https://wiki.mathmig.binghamton.edu/doku.php?id=research |
Per-person wiki page (e.g. Alex Feingold): /p/people/alex/start → /doku.php?id=people:alex:start.
2. Dynamic reports & profiles (mysql, cgi-bin)
Paths are identical everywhere — only the host name differs.
| Form | Example URL |
|---|---|
| ① Legacy | https://matrix.math.binghamton.edu/d/mysql/create_phds |
| ② Production | https://matrix.math.binghamton.edu/d/mysql/create_phds — same URL, now served from mathmig |
| ③ Direct (mathmig) | https://matrix-math.mathmig.binghamton.edu/d/mysql/create_phds |
Same pattern for /d/mysql/create_theses, /d/cgi-bin/committees/committees_form, the faculty
profile /people/alex, course schedule, teaching history, etc.
3. Personal home pages
Paths are identical — only the host name differs.
| Form | Example URL |
|---|---|
| ① Legacy | https://people.math.binghamton.edu/qiao/ |
| ② Production | https://people.math.binghamton.edu/qiao/ — same URL, now served from mathmig |
| ③ Direct (mathmig) | https://people-math.mathmig.binghamton.edu/qiao/ |
4. Static sites (courses, seminars, www)
| Site | Production URL | Note |
|---|---|---|
| courses | https://courses.math.binghamton.edu/ | static course pages |
| seminars | https://seminars.math.binghamton.edu/ | landing redirects to the wiki seminars page |
| www | https://www.math.binghamton.edu/ | redirects to www2.math (the wiki) |
Reaching the legacy system
The vhosts above are now served from mathmig. The old server stays intact and reachable
(admins / spot-checks) until it is formally decommissioned:
- Browse the old site — use
http://matrix-archive.math.binghamton.edu/(points straight at the legacy box 128.226.2.18). Internal/admin VPN only, and http: — not https (the legacy box's TLS certificate has expired). All three legacy names live on that one box. * File / admin access — SSH via the jump hostssh1.math.binghamton.edu(128.226.2.124) →matrix.math.binghamton.edu(128.226.2.18). * Roll a name back** (emergency) — repointing a firefly backend to legacy is instant and reversible; ask Steven. Questions: Steven Moore — samoore@binghamton.edu.
