Hi Sharif, Unfortunately, if you use mod_perl, you are limited to running one OTRS instance per apache host. You can only have one module per apache instance, so it will cache your database settings, and use them for both OTRS instances.
You could set up two apaches, or disable mod_perl. -- Michiel Beijen R&D OTRS AG Norsk-Data-Str 1. 61352 Bad Homburg Germany T: +31 (0) 6457 42418 F: +49 (0) 9421 56818-18 I: http://www.otrs.com/ Business location: Bad Homburg, Country Court: Bad Homburg, HRB 10751, VAT ID: DE256610065 Chairman: Burchard Steinbild, Managing Board: André Mindermann CU@ CeBIT 2010 in Hannover (Germany) and get to know more about OTRS at booth no.
