I am not sure if this will work by putting globus 4.0 and 4.2 in different directories. The wsgram service is creating a listening port, namely 8443. If this is really a listening port, the second wsgram service won't come up, because it will try to open the same listening port. This will lead to a Unix / Linux system error. Therefore I think you also need to change those ports in the configuration files for the second container. Cheers Alexander
