Create Second Instance of Gemini

web-app

Hiya

As there's no way to separate projects by using another level in the hierarchy, I'm looking at the possibility of creating a second instance.  Can anybody please advise how I'd go about this?  I'm assuming I'd need to install the same again, but name this instance something completely different, assigning a different port etc.

Thanks for any help.

Just give the virtual directoy a different name and change the Form name in the web.config file.

Thanks for your reply.

I've created a new virtual directory, created a new directory in \inetpub\wwwroot\ and copied over the Gemini files.  I've also changed what I think needs changing in the config file, ie full URL path etc.  However, you've made a note to change forms.  We are currently using windows authentication, therefore on looking at this particular setting, I assume I don't need to change anything. 

Also, I was wanting to have a separate database for the second instance, therefore I've created a new database, added an ODBC connection to point to the new database and run the *.sql files to copy over the tables, stored procedures, views etc.  Do I need to do anything else please?

I've opened up the second instance into my browser, but when I make a change, it still makes a change in the first instance.  For example, I added a user in the new system and noticed that that user was also added in the original system.  It seems I've missed something to make these individual systems.

Please help!

Thanks

Please change the Forms tag name (even if you are using win auth).

Also, make sure that you have changed the connection string and FullGeminiURL setting in the web.config file.
