Running Multiple AWI Instances on One Tomcat Server

By default, only one AWIProduit Automic : interface Web, simple et claire, qui permet l'+char(39)+'accès aux différentes fonctionnalités d'+char(39)+'Automation Engine. instance can run on one Apache Tomcat server. If you want to be able to have users log into more than one AWI instance at the same time, you need to modify your installation. Otherwise, anyone who tries to start a second instance while one is already running will just get an error.

Configure your Tomcat server so that all AWI instances share the same Felix class loader. You do this by moving the Apache Felix Framework that is delivered with each AWI instance to the main Tomcat library.

Steps ...

  1. On your AWI server, go to your Tomcat folder.
  2. Copy the org.apache.felix.main-n.n.n.jar file

    From the webapps\<AWI_Instance>\WEB-INF\lib folder of one of your AWI instances

    To to the lib folder in the top level of your Tomcat installation (<Tomcat>\lib).

    Warning: You must use the Felix JAR file that is packaged in the AWI lib folder. Do not use another downloaded version.

  3. Delete the org.apache.felix.main-n.n.n.jar file from all your AWI instances (in the webapps\<AWI_Instance>\WEB-INF\lib folders).

You might need to wait a few minutes before the changes take effect and AWI users can log into different instances without a problem. To be sure, wait about 3–5 minutes and test the configurationUn ensemble de composants qui constituent un système.
