Bitnami you had one job - work out of the box #fail

Seriously I have to pay money for this? I cannot access the Magento app because the config table has base_url set to an AWS public IP address URL, presumably from when the image was prepared, embedded in the Magento config table. This means I get redirected to http://23.22.54.201 when I try to access Magento. This is ridiculous.

To fix it I did this:

mysql -u root -p
USE bitnami_magento;
select * from core_config_data where path like '%base_url%';
UPDATE core_config_data SET value = 'http://[localIP]/' WHERE config_id = 19;

but now there is some Magento cache that needs to be cleared because I am still being 302 redirected to the public IP. So I am off spelunking in Magento forums to find out the magic commands to clear the cache. I thought I was paying for Bitnami so I would not have to do these sorts of gymnastics!
