Hi David, Thanks for your response. You solution works for us if we install WASCE on a centeral location and have the multiple instances but the probelm is this centeral location will not have any write and execute permission..it will only have read only permission. hense when we run multiple instance for every users....it tries to write some info on the cernteral location of WASCE install and it fials in our scenraio....moreover evry user will have their own repo and not even on the centeral location it should be known by other users....what all repo's are there or avilable....thats why we wanted to install server for evry user but share bin/lib and schema folders.....any pointers on this? Your repose is much appriciated.
