[rt-users] Two discrete instances of RT / same server

[Dimitry Faynerman]

We have about 5-6 different RTs setup on the same virtuals, some of them use
their own database, some of them share the same database

Dear List,

In the interest of brevity does anybody have experience with
standing up two apache <VirtualHost> each having an instance
of RT running on the same server ?  We want to have a test-config
instance, as well as our existing running instance.

Seems like the safest thing would be two separate mysql backends,
one running on a different port.  Is it possible instead to
run both out of the same mysql, but rename 'rt3' to something else ?
if we had a completely separate {RT} home dir and separate etc,
separate Site_Config.pm, all referred by a second apache ..
would things still break inside perl / mason somehow with shared
caches ?

Let me know if this would be feasable.  If it is and nobody wrote a howto
yet I'd be willing to document steps taken and flush it out into a howto
that would be wiki-usable.

Kind regards,
