I don’t think diss is going away. Just the version.xml files are no longer going to be copied there.
<div class="">The ccdb.sqlite file will still be there as I understand it.</div>

Hi All,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Asking for a friend- how does one build their own private ccdb so we can modify and test calibrations with out altering the master? I see this link <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/HOWTO_build_the_CCDB__;!!PhOWcWs!h-eg_g6eTbt5YZAgqOze3M-EYOKk3NVqHQkzPLnnVfrh4S2eR9fd-95zMz_Z5w$" target="_blank" class="">https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/HOWTO_build_the_CCDB</a> on
the wiki, but the instructions are not clear and I think one ends up using the master ccdb. My friend seems to run into this same problem every 6 months when calibrations are due. This person's work around in the past was to copy the master sqlite file ( /group/halld/www/halldweb/html/dist/ccdb.sqlite)
to a private directory, then put this in their environment file:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
setenv JANA_CALIB_URL sqlite:///<private directory>/ccdb.sqlite<br class="">
setenv CCDB_CONNECTION sqlite:///<private directory>/ccdb.sqlite
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Is this proper etiquette/form? Should my friend go about this another way? Can clear instructions be added to the wiki so this doesn't happen in the future (if the above way is good form, I can add a section to the wiki)?</div>
</div>

Dear Offliners,<br class="">
<br class="">
PLEASE exercise caution when modifying the master CCDB - this goes for<br class="">
new users and old alike. If you think you are working with an SQLite<br class="">
copy, while it is good to check the value of the CCDB_CONNECTION<br class="">
environment variable, it doesn't hurt to use "ccdb -i" to boot the<br class="">
CCDB CLI into interactive mode and check what output you see there.<br class="">
Especially if you have something like 50 terminal windows open, as<br class="">
many of us do.<br class="">
<br class="">
Thanks for your consideration,<br class="">
Sean<br class="">
