Hello, I have a server with one single webapps running on Tomcat 4.1.29 and MS IIS 6 (linked through the JK Connector) on Win2K, in production and accessible through the web. Now I need to have a second application running on Tomcat + IIS too, but I'm not sure what option to take : 1- install the 2nd web apps on the same Tomcat, 2- install a 2nd Tomcat instance on the server and have that 2nd web apps running on that 2nd instance, 3- have a 2nd server installed with its own configuration. The issues I foresee according to the options : - option 1 : if any severe problem arises on any application which could affect Tomcat (Out of Memory error, etc), the other apps would also not be available. Also when re-deploying an apps, the best solution is usually to stop/start the Tomcat service, which would automatically shutdown the other too. - option 2 (my prefered one) : best solution I think so far, but could there be any conflict between both Tomcats running on the same server ? What specific step should I take to have them running side by side without problem (besides having a different HTTP port) ? - option 3 : expensive solution, although the 2nd server is almost ready and already running. Any opinion about this ? Has anyone tried any of the options above in a Production environment (i.e. servers up 24/7 all year with least interruption possible) ? Thanks a lot, Alain
