To install and run multiple VolanoChat servers as Windows NT or Windows 2000 Services, perform the following steps for each instance of a VolanoChat server.
Install another copy of the VolanoChat server into a new directory, such as vchat2.6.1-2
, for example.
Use a text editor to edit the service.bat
file. You'll need to give each additional instance of the VolanoChat server its own service name, such as VolanoChat2. To do this, you'll need to change 2 lines in the service.bat file:
JavaService.exe -install VolanoChat %JVM_DLL% [...]
You will need to edit this line so the service will install with your new service name. You can change 'VolanoChat' to something else like this:
JavaService.exe -install VolanoChat2 %JVM_DLL% [...]
You will also need to edit the corresponding removal line. So this:
JavaService.exe -uninstall VolanoChat
Becomes this:
JavaService.exe -uninstall VolanoChat2
Once you have done this, your new service.bat
file will install and remove the additional service instance of VolanoChat. You might want to change the name of your service.bat
file to something such as service2.bat
so you will know the service to which it corresponds.
To run an additional copy of VolanoChat on the same machine, you'll need to edit the following properties so they don't conflict with the first copy.
You may then install, start, stop, and uninstall the new VolanoChat2 service with the commands:
service2 install net start VolanoChat2 net stop VolanoChat2 service2 remove
You may also start and stop the VolanoChat2 service from the Services administrative tool.
