Using the method described in the RUNNING.txt that comes with the Tomcat installation, I'm trying to install multiple instances of Tomcat 4.1 on a Linux server, so that multiple developers can work independently.
I'm running into some problems, however. Here is what I have done so far.. 1. I copy the appropriate directories (conf, webapps, work, logs) from the Tomcat installation into a directory in my user's home directory called "tomcat" 1. I configure the CATALINA_BASE ENVIRONMENT for each user to be CATALINA_BASE=$HOME/tomcat 2. In USER B's server.xml file, I change the port attribute of the Connector element to be 8081 (not used by my machine). With these changes, I am able to start USER A's configuration OK. When I attempt to start USER B's I get the following error : Error creating server socket: java.net.BindException: Address already in use LifecycleException. I believe this problem is caused by the fact that the second instance is attempting to use the same port used for startup and shutdown as the first. Does anyone know a way around this problem?
