matching webapp content to dpeloyment receiver targets

[decentrix]

I'm using 2.1 and trying to deploy a couple web projects to a file deployment receiver.

The problem is, i can't seem to get each project to deploy to seperate directories.
Both web projects are listed under the ROOT default webapp (option was greyed out to change to anything else). When i deploy one, it goes into the ROOT directory on the receiver. Go to deploy the other and it overwrites the content in that ROOT directory.
In the receiver i have a target of / configured to a particular directory (which has a ROOT directory in it).
I've tried creating webapps underneath the projects and deploying them to a target of the same name, but it still tries to put it under the above ROOT directory.
How do i accomplish this?
I've read the deployment wiki and the deployment receiver readme and still can't figure it out.

Thanx!

You're not the only one to have problems with this.

Basically, you'll need a separate file receiver listening on its own port for each Web Project (there doesn't seem to be any way to bind a receiver to a specific IP).

I posted some more details of what I figured out here

Unfortunately, if you're using 2.1 Community you may fall foul of this when you specify a port number with a fs deployment:

It's already been fixed and will be available in the next release.  I don't know when that will be or whether the fix has made it into SVN though, I'm afraid.

This fix has now been merged into SVN so is available. A nightly build has not completed yet though with this fix in, should be available tomorrow.
