Re: [platform-help-dev] creating two instance of the infocenter

Also,

As discussed on the side, please check the logs in WPS for errors.
Please, open bugs if you find out that problem exist in the Infocenter
code.

Shika,

Help team does not have the resources to test Infocenter on all possible
application server engines, and have not tried WPS.  There should not be a
problem is server is running other application as well.  If you suspect
that there is a problem caused by other application, you can uninstall
them, and run Infocenter as the only application and verify that it works.

For running two Infocenter on WAS you need to install the .war twice with
each one having web.xml pointing to a different ECLIPSE_HOME.  Each of
ECLIPSE_HOME directories needs to contain unzipped Eclipse with set of
documentation plugins you want people to view.

To unistall Infocenter, stop and remove the webapp from the server, remove
the classpath entry in the server VM pointing to eclipseurl.jar that was
added, and finally remove delete the ECLIPSE_HOME directory containing
Eclipse.

Thanks Konrad for your prompt reply,
Since our product runs over WPS,
So i was trying to install one of the infocenter on WPS, and create another
application server to host the other infocenter.
But i could not get the first infocenter running(which i was installing on
WPS). Are there some issues related to this. There are offcourse other
webmodules along with infocenter.war on WPS.

Also wanted to clarify couple of more things
You said i would need two sets of eclipse zip file, But since i change the
web.xml in infocenter to give ECLIPSE_HOME, i would need two sets of
infocenters too. IS that correct?
What is the correct uninstall procedure for uninstalling infocenter from
WAS AE.

Thanks a lot ,
Shikha

Shika,

For multiple Infocenters to work properly they have to run in separate
VMs(bug http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22278).

Since you are using WAS AE, you can create a second Application Server
instance in addition to the "Default Server".  It is O.Kl because each
server instance has its own VM.  Expand Websphere Adminstrative Domain ->
Nodes -> HOSTNAME -> Application Servers in the console, right-click
Application Servers, select new, give it a name, OK.  Now you can repeat
Infocenter installation steps (from 3 forwards), using your second server
instead of the Default Server.  If the documentation set is going to be the
same you could use one eclipse installation (d:\eclipse for example), if
documentation will be different between the to servers you need a second
copy of eclipse installed, with a different set of documentation plugins
(for example in d:\eclipse2).  Use that path in installation steps.  There
should not be any issues with it other that one I mentioned first.

HI,
I am working on a product where i need to maintain two base urls for two
different sets of help system for two seperate sets of audience.
I will be using infocenter help system. So i need to create two base urls
one of them may be http://localhost/help1 which brings up a infocenter with
one set of help docs. SO when i load this url it should bring up its own
navigation and help docs etc
And another something like http://localhost/help2 which brings up
infocenter with another set of help docs., and when i load this url it
should bring up its own navigation and help docs etc
I actually wish to create trwo instances of the same infocenter.
My product runs on WAS AE.
HAs some body tried this, Or knows how to do it,
Any help would be highly appreciated,
Thanks,
Shikha
