-----------------------------------------
You can certainly add all your projects in the same continuum instance.
Why can't you do it ?
> Problems running multiple instances in Tomcat

> Key: CONTINUUM-1963
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-1963
> Project: Continuum
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core system
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Environment: Continuum 1.2.2 web archive (not standalone)
> Tomcat 6.0.18
> Reporter: Michael Johns

> I'm trying to run multiple instances of apache-continuum-1.2.2.war in a single Tomcat
container. I've got it up and running just fine, but there are a few areas where the instances
overlap that prevent me from actually using them.
> 1. By default, the values from the "Configuration" page on the GUI are saved to continuum.xml
in the ${appserver.base}/conf directory. This is a problem because all instances want to
share that same file. That means all instances try to share working directories, which is
very bad. I tracked down this value in the WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/continuum directory of
the web archive, but changing it there did no good. Then I found it in the spring-context.xml
file within the META-INF directory of the continuum-configuration-1.2.2.jar file that's within
the WEB-INF/lib directory of the main web application. Updating it in that file did the trick.
But now I need a separate web archive for each of my instances, which is what I was trying
to avoid in the first place.
> 2. The values on the "Appearance" page are saved in a continuum-appearance.xml file that
also lives in the ${appserver.base}/conf directory. Unfortunately, the path to this file
is hard-coded in the DefaultAppareanceConfiguration implementation. The location of this
config file should really come out of config as well. Fortunately I don't care too much if
each of my instances has the same footer.
> There needs to be a way to override the default configuration directory per instance
without having to dig two libraries deep into the web archive. As far as I can tell, this
is the only thing preventing me from cleanly running N Continuum instances in parallel.
