Thanks for the advice folks. I already have the reactor folder (/reactor) in the web root, as that seems to be the general advice on this list. I presume this means I can keep the same project name?
I do have data folder in a mapping though i.e. the <mapping value="/MyApplicationData" /> so that it's stored outside the webroot. I was wondering if this would be better moved to the webroot and it's mapping deleted? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Chiverton Sent: 30 April 2007 15:39 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Reactor for CF] running 2 copies of a site on same server On Monday 30 Apr 2007, Gareth Cole wrote: > I've thought about using a different mapping for the test site.

It may work when the number of sites is small, or you need a cast-iron guaranty it wont interfere.

Yes, you should, it's used for creating a directory and there for class name (look at what your project-local 'data' files inherit from). This means your 'test' site 'data' CFCs will be slightly different. You'll have to manage this carefully unless you go with local /reactor's, I think. > Any advice from people who've experienced a similar situation would be > appreciated. We've got a shared /reactor mapping for all the applications, and make sure to set different project/dsn settings. But we don't have multiple copies of the same app on the same server. -- Tom Chiverton Helping to enthusiastically brand professional platforms on: http://thefalken.livejournal.com **************************************************** This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP.
