I don't think it is possible out of the box. It looks to me you are
looking for multi tenant system. If all the stores have single owner and
there is no issue of mixing data, you may do this at Catalog level. You
can create multiple catalogs and then map each catalog to a domain from
Apache Web server. Of course, there will be no data partition among the
stores. All stores will share the same back end catalog manager,
customers, orders etc.

So does that mean that I need to have separate front application for each store as youy are saying that I need separate web.xml ??
My requirements is to have a single ofbiz application running on tomcat with multiple stores in it. BUt each store should have a separate domain name and hence domain poitned to that store in the same application.
Is this possible ? Hope you understandd my requirement.Thanks for your replies.

You cant have 1000's of store id in web.xml. Each web.xml will have just one
site id. However, system can have 1000's of store depending on the hardware you
are using.
Look for virtual hosts in Tomcat. In OFbiz, the file you will need to edit is
${ofbiz.home}/framework/base/ofbiz-containers.xml.

thousands of stores id in the same web.xml? Does this affect performance in
any way having so many entries in the same web.xml.

Hi Hammad,
Yes it is possible to point different domain to each store. Stores are attached
to websites. Website ID is configured in the web.xml of each website.
Therefore, if you are going to have different website with different stores,
you are going to multiple websites (similar to the demo e-commerce site).
You can map your domain to store either using Apache web server virtual hosting
or Tomcat (Tomcat is embedded in OFBiz).
Thanks,
Raj
