Problem installing 2 instances of Alfresco in 1 machine

[juliogg]

Hello,
I installed alfresco 2.0 and everything works fine. Now I recently installed a second instance of alfresco in the same machine (to separate production from Preproduction) to test new features, changes, upgrades, etc.
My system is:

OS - Linux 2.6.18-1.2239.fc5smp - i386 GNU/Linux
DB - mysql  Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.27, for redhat-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.0
JDK - jdk1.5.0_11
Alfresco - Alfresco Tomcat Bundle - alfresco-community-tomcat-2.0.0.tar.gz
These is my set-up for the second instance, called alfrescopre (for preproduction - very original uh? 😉 jeje).
- SET CORRECTLY JAVA_HOME poiting to jdk1.5.0_11

- DELETED FILES:

/opt/alfrescopre/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/custom-db-and-data-context.xml.origin/opt/alfrescopre/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/custom-hibernate-dialect.properties.origin/opt/alfrescopre/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/custom-db-connection.properties.origin‍‍‍

- FILES MODIFIED:
* For tomcat>server.xml

diff ./tomcat/conf/server.xml.origin ./tomcat/conf/server.xml13c13< <Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">—> <Server port="9005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">77c77<     <Connector port="8080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"—>     <Connector port="9080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"102,103c102,103<     <Connector port="8009" <                enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" protocol="AJP/1.3" />—>     <!–<Connector port="8009" >                enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" protocol="AJP/1.3" />–>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

*For alfresco.sh:

diff ./alfresco.sh.origin ./alfrescopre.sh 4c4< APPSERVER=/opt/alfresco/tomcat—> APPSERVER=/opt/alfrescopre/tomcat‍‍‍‍‍‍

Firstly I found some errors with my repositories configuration so I changed ../classes/alfresco/repository.properties

diff /opt/alfrescopre/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/repository.properties /opt/alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/repository.properties3c3< dir.root=/opt/alfrescopre/alf_data—> dir.root=./alf_data5,6c5,6< dir.contentstore=/opt/alfrescopre/contentstore< dir.contentstore.deleted=/opt/alfrescopre/alf_data/contentstore.deleted—> dir.contentstore=${dir.root}/contentstore> dir.contentstore.deleted=${dir.root}/contentstore.deleted8c8< dir.auditcontentstore=/opt/alfrescopre/alf_data/audit.contentstore—> dir.auditcontentstore=${dir.root}/audit.contentstore11c11< dir.indexes=/opt/alfrescopre/alf_data/lucene-indexes—> dir.indexes=${dir.root}/lucene-indexes14c14< dir.indexes.lock=/opt/alfrescopre/alf_data/locks—> dir.indexes.lock=${dir.indexes}/locks17c17< index.recovery.mode=FULL—> index.recovery.mode=VALIDATE72c72< db.name=alfrescopre—> db.name=alfresco74,75c74,75< db.username=alfrescopre< db.password=alfrescopre—> db.username=alfresco> db.password=alfresco‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

That solved some of the errors and now I have available the second Tomcat on port 9080 but alfrescopre is not working
This is my currently alfresco.log for preproduction:

Does someone have idea about what can I check/change to solve this?.

Thank you very much in advance for any help.
Best Regards.

hello,

your problem came from the java RMI (Remote Method Invocator) because each server try to blind this url:

rmi://localhost:50500/alfresco/jmxrmi‍

So the easier way to solve this problem is useing a VirtualMachine for linux (like InnoTek VirtualBox, http://www.innotek.de) and install your pre-production server in this VirtualMachine.

Hope this help.

[juliogg]

Thank you very much for your help and suggestion.
I am still fighting a little bit with this problem and I will keep in mind the virtual machine option as my last shot
I will post any advance.
Thanks for any other help/suggestion.
