Do you have your first mid-tier installed in a directory outside the usual Tomcat directory tree? If so, there is a file somewhere in that Tomcat install telling it to expect a webapp elsewhere. I occasionally have to remember where that is, but I imagine people here will know off the tops of their heads. I'll look myself, but they will probably beat me to it.
If you have a second tomcat and second mid-tier you alter the configuration of the second tomcat to point in the new direction and then fire it up and see what breaks. 8) -al -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Karthik Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2013 10:39 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Installing 2 mid-tiers on the same machine ** thanks Alfred. yes, security risks will be validated. can you or LJ help me with pointing the 2nd tomcat to the 2nd mid tier? where and in which files of 2nd tomcat do i need to make adjustments. i wish i had the luxury of time to identify and do this myself, but i have just about 2-3 hours to get this done. any help is appriciated.

You can simply install another Tomcat, make a copy of the midtier folder, point the new tomcat to the copy of mid-tier, and should be good :) On Tue, Aug 13, 2013 at 10:49 AM, Karthik <[email protected]> wrote: ** Dear All, hope you are having a good day. I have a scenario where we have configured our own SSO plugin on a server that has 1 midtier installed. now, customer has exposed this on public IP so that it can be accessed over internet. however, when accessed over internet, it asks for windows authentication. To resolve this, we have planned to install one more mid-tier instance on the same machine and expose this on public ip so that they dont get prompted for windows authentication and login using remedy native authentication. we cant install the 2nd mid tier on a different machine due to unavailability. when we try to install 2nd mid-tier on the same machine, installer says it will upgrade the existing mid-tier even if we chose new installation in the beginning. any ideas?
