I am trying to install multiple environments of FSM application to the computer and it overrides the previous installation so that I cannot use the multiple applications together. As a workaround I need to install the environments again and again to use them. 

Lets say I have FSM DEV and FSM TEST environments and when I try to install the both, always it gets overridden by the new installation. I know we can have separate installed applications for both of them but I do not know how.

Could anyone please guide me on this?

Thank you so much in advance.

Hi,

 

You need to allow multiple endpoints for the application. You can do it for all users by changing the MetrixEndpoints.xml file at 

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\FSMServerXXXXXXX\Client

If it is select users it would be more complicated I believe.

Hi Lee,

It means we can have multiple endpoints within the <endpoint> tag right?

<MetrixEndpoints>

<endpoint name="FSM6U2DEV" address="net.tcp://BAWILK0:808/FSM6U2DEV/M5Service.svc" binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="CompressedNetTcpBinding_IM5Service" contract="Metrix.UI.Communication.IM5Service" />

 

<endpoint name="FSM6U2TEST" address="net.tcp://BAWILK0:808/FSM6U2TEST/M5Service.svc" binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="CompressedNetTcpBinding_IM5Service" contract="Metrix.UI.Communication.IM5Service" />

</MetrixEndpoints>

like this, please correct me if I am wrong.

I would have thought that is how it uses the endpoints file, yes. I have not traced it to be certain though.

@wickrambug are you able to install multiple instances of FSM/Application on the same IIS/DB server? Would be great if you can share your experiance.
