Multiple webapps

#1

Postby systemsolutions » Mon Nov 05, 2018 8:59 am

Is there documentation available that describes how to setup and run multiple webapps with ebase?

I'd like to have one TomCat server running two ebase apps on different ports.

I tried searching, but was not successful.

Thanks

No but it should be fairly simple:

1. Copy the ebase folder in tomcat/webapps so you have two e.g. ebase and ebase2.
2. Create a new context file in tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost e.g. copy ebase.xml to ebase2.xml. I don't think you need to change anything inside this file.
3. Restart the server

From a tomcat perspective that's all you need to do. But to create two independent webapps you will also need to create a copy of the repository database. If you are using the default embedded Derby, then copy the UFS folder in UfsServer/DB to e.g. UFS2, then change the UFSREPOSITORY datasource definition in the ebase2.xml context file to point to this e.g.
url="jdbc:derby:UFS2;create=false"

Whoops just realised I answered the wrong question. The previous post is to run two webapps on the same tomcat but with both sharing the same port.

I've never set up a tomcat instance with two ports, one for each webapp. Bust here's a link to someone who has done this

Another option is to setup two tomcat instances.

Actually using the same port is even better. I didn't think you could do that, but I guess it's the webapp name that's the unique value to differentiate the two apps.

I will try this out.
