good question. clustering islands seem to be only specified in a
web-site.xml file. i'm more of a java programmer than a network/webserver
administrator so apologies if this is a bit of a dumb question.
if i want to run copies of my app for different paying customers, and
cluster each individually then i'm under the impression that i need each
copy of the app configured in separate web-site.xml files.
i understand (and have tried) everything that you've included in your email
but i still don't have an answer to my question.
does creating a new web-site.xml literally correspond to a new registered
domain name?
is there a way to have,
www.ourdomain.com/customer1/myApp
and
www.ourdomain.com/customer2/myApp
and so on
setup, where customer1 and customer2 have been set up in separate
web-site.xml files, and are also clustered in separate islands.
i've got clustering going, and i've got multiple apps configured but all
using default-web-site.xml which is not what we're after.
i've also followed the virtual-hosts tutorial but it also didn't go the
extra step and explain what a new web-site.xml meant.
thanks,
greg.

is associated with a distinct web site. If you have multiple applications
you want under the same web site, ie www.blah.com, then you just make
multiple applications in the web-site file that points its host to
www.blah.com. If you want 2 distinct websites, ie www.foo.com and
www.bar.com, then you make 2 separate web-site.xml files and point the host
of each one to these separate URLs.
