Have a look at RUNNING.txt:
(4) Advanced Configuration - Multiple Tomcat 4 Instances
...
Example:
Install tomcat at /usr/local/java/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3
Install an instance at /somedir/dev01 (follow the given paragraph)
Create directory /somedir/dev01/bin
Define the file /somedir/dev01/bin/restart like:
#!/bin/sh
JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/IBMJava2-13
CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3
CATALINA_BASE=/somedir/dev01
export JAVA_HOME CATALINA_HOME CATALINA_BASE
${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/shutdown.sh
sleep 10
${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/startup.sh
If you wan, you can define similar scripts for start and stop.
With that you can define several instances on one machine.
/somedir/dev01 through /somedir/devn..n
Each developer can simply restart his instance by
calling /somedir/dev01/bin/restart
You only have to make shure that the instances have a unique
ip/port compination for each port they use.
