Hi,

is it possible to have two dotnetnuke installations running on the same web server.

(both running off a different database on the same SQL server 2000)

thanks
mark.

Of course you can. Actually you can have as many installations as you want, as long as your server can handle the traffic.

Yes, but that has already been said.

It was mentioned that you could have as many as you wanted as long as you had a server beefy enough to handle lots of databases.  That is something you also have to consider when or if you choose hosting.  Right now I have IXWebhosting and their database server on which I am on has so many databases I can't even complete a DNN install anymore.

Always beware of hosting company's with unlimited SQL database space.  It hurt me in the long run.

Apparently, it's no longer true with version 5.6.0.  I have two separate DNN 5.6.0 installations on the same server box, connecting to separate SQL 2005 databases.   The first one ran for months, I added the 2nd installation a few days ago.  Today both sites went down, saying "This site is currently Unavailable Please check back later".  Then one of them came back up after IIS restart, and died again, the other one did the same thing.  After removing 2nd installation, the first one started working again. 

These postings are saying you can run as many as you want -- I think that is no longer true.  Or maybe I dd something wrong???
