Multiple Wikis

From Fxp Wiki

Sometimes you want to run multiple Wiki instances, for example one for each project you're managing. The projects have different members and different requirements; perhaps even different access rules.

Here's how you set up multiple wiki-instances:

Let us say that your main wiki instance is called ~GobbleWiki, because your company is called "Gobble Inc", and this is your intranet. You are using Tomcat, and you have installed it in /opt/tomcat. You have already set up the ~GobbleWiki directory, and customized your jspwiki.properties.

Now, you have a new project called "Zorp", and you want to establish a "~ZorpWiki" for it. Do as follows:

Put the following in the /opt/tomcat/conf/server.xml file, within your -section.

• jspwiki.applicationName
• jspwiki.fileSystemProvider.pageDir (or whichever provider you're using)
• jspwiki.basicAttachmentProvider.storageDir (or whichever provider you're using)
• jspwiki.baseURL
• log4j.appender.~FileLog.File (if you're using log4j file logger)
