Hi,

can somebody please help me with this question?

We have to support multiple institutions. Each institution should have separated repository accessible via unique URL, e.g.
Institution1 - http://institution1.com/repo
Institution2 - http://institution2.com/repo
etc.

We have to support 10s of institutions so installing separate instance for each of them is not an option for us.

Does Dspace support multiple domains (sites or institutions) on single Dspace instance?

Thanks!
Ozren

Hi,

I got an answer from Tim on my question on multiple domains on single Dspace instance on Dspace-general mailing list. Tim advised me to use this list for this kind of questions, so I'm forwarding emails here.

Although suggested solution is viable for a limited number of domains, it becomes problematic for a larger number if domains (institutions), e.g. tens, or hundreds.

Is it possible to support multiple domains with single Dspace instance?

Best regards,
Ozren Lapcevic

Hi,

The easiest way to support multiple domains is to install several DSpace
instances (separate repository per URL) behind a single Apache webserver.

As a basic example, you could do the following:

1) Install a DSpace for "Institution1", with Tomcat running on port 8080

2) Install a separate DSpace for "Institution2", with Tomcat running on
port 8081 (i.e. a different port)

3) Install an Apache web server. Configure it to respond to multiple
URLs via different VirtualHosts...e.g. see:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/examples.html

4) Configure Apache to forward requests for
"http://institution1.com/repo";  to the Tomcat on port 8080, using
something like "mod_proxy":
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html

5) Configure Apache to forward requests for
"http://institution2.com/repo";  to the Tomcat on port 8081, again using
something like "mod_proxy".

Here's a full sample of configuring Apache using mod_proxy + a
VirtualHost to forward to a Tomcat:http://stackoverflow.com/a/962928

By the way, just an FYI. It's usually best to send this type of
technical question to our "dspace-tech" mailing list, as that's our
primary tech support list:
