I dont' see why you can't just org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main() twice
just change the system hash to change the catalina.base and catalina.home ...so System.getProperties().put("catalina.base","/home/tomcat1"); System.getProperties().put("catalina.home","/home/tomcat1"); // start this in a thread? org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(new String[] {"start"}); System.getProperties().put("catalina.base","/home/tomcat2"); System.getProperties().put("catalina.home","/home/tomcat2"); // start this in a thread? org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(new String[] {"start"}); not the change in the system properties. anyone disagree?

Now the problem is that I want to deploy multiple instances of this application on one machine only. One way is to run multiple tomcats on different ports. Is there any other better way ? Tomcat 4.x supports different instances. But I am not able to figure out if that implies multiple tomcat instances with different server.xml etc can be run at the same time !! I am not averse to using multiple ports .
