Multiple instances of alfresco

ltendi

Is it possible to configure a single server with more instances of Alfresco listening on different ports?
Do I need jboss or it can be done in Tomcat?
Can anybody give me some documentation links/help to setup this configuration?
All help is welcome.

I would like to know this too, does anyone already has an answer to this?

It is quite simple:
create a new database using the scripts
in …/extras/databases/mysql (you need to change the database name: i.e alfresco1.)
create a new alfresco1.war to be deployed that differs from the original one for the repository.properties: change the dir.root to point to a different contentstore and db.name to point to alfresco1 db.
deploy the alfresco1.war copying it into the webapp folder
restart alfresco.

take into account that CIFS server is limited to only one instance and ftp server must be configured on different ports.
WebDav works fine with different instances.

The configuration I'm describing is on a single apache-tomcat container.

Hi,
Has anyone else got 2 or more Alfrescos on the same server ? in particular JBoss.

I have 2 alfrescos for deployment. The first one deployed ok.
The second has its own extensions folder (I modified application-context.xml to read different extension area ) and set a differnt port in file-servers-custom.xml.
The first error to appear on second Alfresco deployment is

11:21:19,129 INFO  [STDOUT] log4j:ERROR A "org.jboss.logging.util.OnlyOnceErrorHandler" object is not assignable to a "org.apache.log4j.spi.ErrorHandler" variable.

and then later

11:21:34,286 ERROR [org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader] Context initialization failed

which is probably because my fisrt instance is running Ã‚Â¿correct?
I've created another database and configured repository to use it.

Any ideas and/or pointers would be appreciated.
Muchas gracias in advance.

Which version do you use ?

I have exactly the same problem with 2.0.3E and JBoss.
It works fine with 1.4.3E.
