RE: [xwiki-users] Create a new instance of Xwiki
Hi is there also a way to setup virtual wikis based on the same hostname but different URL patterns? Example: http://www.myhost.ch/xwiki/wiki-1/ http://www.myhost.ch/xwiki/wiki-2/ http://www.myhost.ch/xwiki/wiki-3/ All URLs point to same Context. In addition, could you please quickly explain the usage of xwiki.base=../../ which can be found in the config file? thanks a lot Thomas -----Original Message----- From: Ludovic Dubost [mailto:ludovic@xwiki.com] Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2005 12:00 PM To: xwiki-users@objectweb.org Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Create a new instance of Xwiki Hi, This is one way of create multiple wikis served from the same servlet engine. However if you start having over 3 or 4 wikis, this will become a resource hog with many connections open to the database and multiple caches.. The solution is to use real virtual servers.

Hi Cwiki users,
I noticed the instructions for adding another space, unfortunately this isn't quite what I needed.
Here are some instuctions for creating a new instance of Xwiki in case you'd like to keep two completly separate databases (i.e. searching one will not give results for the other). I wasn't quite sure where to put this online.
1 Create a new instance of Xwiki # Create a folder with the name of the new Xwiki (i.e. support) in the tomcat/webapps folder) # Extract the xwiki war file into this folder # In the webinf/hibernate.cfg.xml file * modify {code:xml} <property name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost/xwiki</property> {code} replacing xwiki with the name of the new database you wish to create # create a new database with the same name as in the line above # import the sample database located here [http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/XWikiDownload] into your new database
All set! Go to http://localhost/your_wiki_here/bin/view/Main/WebHome to check it out.
Caution, you may wish to modify the index.html file to point to your url just in case.

It is technically possible from an XWiki standpoint but you need to send all these URLs to the same web app in the servlet engine.. I have never done this setup in tomcat yet.. Ludovic Thomas.Duehrsen@sicap.com wrote:
