Hi All, I'm experimenting here with a setup in which I run 1 Tomcat (on Windows... ) with several geoserver instances (so geoserver1, geoserver2 in webapps dir).
The idea was to be able to be able to speedup the restart of an geoserver instance because they would contain less stores/layers individually. Starting up takes some time now. Another idea was to maybe split them up by store type (reason behind it: we have had an production server failure because of a Oracle db server ip move and an old store was still pointing to the non excisting ip). BUT: having ONE instance using gdal/ecw running fine, but as soon as I run 2 instances (different GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR's in web.xml defined) the second one does NOT show the possibility anymore to CREATE an ecw store, AND in the first one, existing layers/stores are not working anymore.... Then removing the geoserver2 instance from the webapps, makes ecw in geoserver1 working again.... I'm not so much into the jni/native/dll loading, but is it possible that the gdal-extension in one instance is creating havoc in another? Note that java-only stores (like Oracle-jdbc) work fine with several instances. Probably we go back to the 1 instance scenario for now, but if this is trivial to work around, just let me know.
