Description: The PyWrapper for the BGBM is this:
http://jawa.gbif.org:8080/registry-ws/technical_installation/403a9f50-c065-11e1-9773-0024e8565763

With metadata like that:
"title":"BioCASe Installation",
"description":"BioCASe Access Point of AlgaTerra",
"homepage":"http://ww3.bgbm.org/biocase/pywrapper.cgi"

When it should be something like this, with "BGBM" being a substitute for the actual hosting organization name:
"title":"BioCASe Installation BGBM",
"description":"BioCASe installation BGBM",
"homepage":"http://ww3.bgbm.org/biocase/"

Maybe we can improve the title and description, but the url is very hard to improve in the migration scripts, the url patterns we have are very different, for example: http://biocase.grinfo.net/pywrapper.cgi?dsa=SINGER, http://161.116.68.121/biocase/pywrapper.cgi?dsa=fungacat, http://141.20.245.232:55095/biocase2/pywrapper.cgi?dsa=BIODAT_ZFMK
So, the best thing i could do to infer a base url for technical installation was to get rid of the parameters, something like:
IF(INSTR(s.url,'?') > 0, SUBSTR(s.url,1,INSTR(s.url,'?') - 1),s.url) AS rooturl.

Comment: in those cases just the existence of pywrapper.cgi tells me you have to use the parent directory of that cgi script. That should be the case for all pywrapper installations, unless they have used some rewrites or virtual hosts which I remember 1 or 2 installations did use. But that is surely the exception

Comment: This issue is related with the migration scripts and those changes can't be reverted now.
