Dear Friends,

If several people are going to have the role of consumer, where they have read-only access, do you think there will be a problem with several of them logging in with the same login credentials at once?

Thanks!

Hi Lucille,

I ran into the opposite problem a couple of weeks ago.  I have three Alfresco instances installed on my workstation – one running off of port 8080 and the others running off of 28080 and 48080 respectively.  One was my development instance, another was our UAT instance, and the third was a public demo instance.

Anyway, I found that I could not log onto two or more instances from the same browser without problems.  If I logged into instance A, then the moment I logged onto instance B from within the same browser, the instance A user would be logged out.  And vice versa.  If I used different browsers for each instance, the problem didn't occur.

The problem seems to be with the cookies that Alfresco uses to manage state – they don't use the port number to identify an Alfresco instance.  So the Urls:

    http://localhost:8080/alfresco
    http://localhost:28080/alfresco
    http://localhost:48080/alfresco

all appear as:

    http://localhost/alfresco

in the eye of the browser.  Hence the problem.

Anyway, I know this is only tangentially related to your question, but people might want to know about it.
