Michael Johns commented on CONTINUUM-1963:
------------------------------------------
The kind I mentioned earlier. Administration pains, for one. We don't want
everyone to have all permissions, but we need each team to have the ability to
set their own schedules, for example. That leads to a person on one team
potentially screwing up the schedule for a person on another team. But the
biggest problem is the single-threaded builds. There are times when a team
needs to build immediately (to do a release, for example), and currently they
have to wait for the entire queue to clear, which could take a few hours (since
every team has projects in the queue).
The way our organization is structured, it just doesn't make sense to share one
instance of Continuum between completely unrelated projects.

> Key: CONTINUUM-1963
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-1963
> Project: Continuum
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core system
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Environment: Continuum 1.2.2 web archive (not standalone)
> Tomcat 6.0.18
> Reporter: Michael Johns
>
> I'm trying to run multiple instances of apache-continuum-1.2.2.war in a
> single Tomcat container. I've got it up and running just fine, but there are
> a few areas where the instances overlap that prevent me from actually using
> them.
> 1. By default, the values from the "Configuration" page on the GUI are saved
> to continuum.xml in the ${appserver.base}/conf directory. This is a problem
> because all instances want to share that same file. That means all instances
> try to share working directories, which is very bad. I tracked down this
> value in the WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/continuum directory of the web archive,
> but changing it there did no good. Then I found it in the spring-context.xml
> file within the META-INF directory of the continuum-configuration-1.2.2.jar
> file that's within the WEB-INF/lib directory of the main web application.
> Updating it in that file did the trick. But now I need a separate web
> archive for each of my instances, which is what I was trying to avoid in the
> first place.
> 2. The values on the "Appearance" page are saved in a
> continuum-appearance.xml file that also lives in the ${appserver.base}/conf
> directory. Unfortunately, the path to this file is hard-coded in the
> DefaultAppareanceConfiguration implementation. The location of this config
> file should really come out of config as well. Fortunately I don't care too
> much if each of my instances has the same footer.
> There needs to be a way to override the default configuration directory per
> instance without having to dig two libraries deep into the web archive. As
> far as I can tell, this is the only thing preventing me from cleanly running
> N Continuum instances in parallel.
