I have Rundeck 4.15.0 on Redhat.
I can .. and can't change the name of a Project.

I went to Edit Configuration. And then clicked "Edit Configuration File"
I see the lines:

  project.label=oldProjectName
  project.name=oldProjectName

I changed both to 'new-ProjectName' and hit save.
project.name does not change, I'm left with :

  project.label=new-ProjectName
  project.name=oldProjectName

However now in the GUI project drop down, I see 'new-ProjectName' .. but it has not changed its order alphabetically.

And on the linux command line, I use this command to look for running jobs:

 for i in $(rd projects list | grep -v ^#); do echo $i;  rd executions list -p $i; done

and the project shows up there as 'oldProjectName' .. no mention of its new name. 

So it seems that all that is happening here is the label is changing but not the name.
Is there a way to change the name?

thanks

Hi Roger,

By design, you can't change the project name, only the label (displayed on the GUI if you set it). That was requested here.

Greetings.
