Multiple Navision Server on One Machine

kailou

Has anyone installed more than one navision 2.6D servers on a single machine?
When I run the setup the system removes the old server or repairs it.

Yep youre right about that. The setup routine can only handle one instance of the server installation.

Its possible though to install more servers on the same machine. There is a white paper for it somewhere.

Mainly you have to process these actions:
- copy the server files to another directory (check the current server service in the registry if you dont know where theyre installed)
- create a batch file to install the server as service, preferable as it will be much easier to maintain, deinstall, change and so on.
- add the port number to use to the servers SERVICES file as the servers cant share ports. (Something like "MyServer260 2410/tcp")


The batch file could look like this:

server.exe servername=MyServer260,cache=8000,commitcache=yes,nettype=tcp,database=c:\MyServerPath\MyDB.fdb,installasservice
