Question

Is it possible to install TWiki multiple times on a server (Windows 2000 or 2003).

I saw that this topic was discussed in 2002/2003, and I'm wondering whether anything has improved since then.

I assume that it doesn't matter what directory I install TWiki under (i.e. it doesn't have to be /twiki).

You can install as many TWikis as you want on a server. Each of them lives completely in its own directory. Use different paths, or different ports for different TWikis by pointing the URLs to the respective installation directories in Apache's httpd.conf.

If you are using CGI (not ModPerl), the current release works fine.

If you need mod_perl or similar, I would have a look at DakarRelease, and try a recent TWikiBetaRelease - it has much better support for simultaneous instances of TWiki within a single mod_perl server, which doesn't work at all well in the current Sep2004 releases (aka CairoRelease).
