Multiple mid Server installation on single windows machine

[Tanmay Sawant1]

 I have installed 4 Mid-Servers on single windows machine.

But at a time only one Mid-Server for which I run start.bat comes up and the other 3 Mid-Servers services are down .

In services.msc for 4 different configurations I see only one service.

What i need to do so that I have all 4 Mid-Servers up and running?

Please if you can suggest. Am I missing something or doing something wrong?

 In every config file has relevant instance URL , user credentials created with mid_Server role and expected name for mid Server.
 2 Mid-Servers for dev and 2 for preprod , i see only one service , even i have created individual user for each Mid-Server.

Please help/suggest.

Hello Tanmay,

Can you check if the config.xml if the parameter "name" is different between the 4 mid server instances? 
If not, change it and start the services.

Hello Tanmay,

In the config.xml of one of my midserver instances I have something like this:

the other midserver instance (running in the same server) is like this:

Also, cleanup the midserver_sys_id since it should be empty in the initial installation of the mid server:

In your secondary midserver instance you can run the start.bat or the installer.bat to create the service. 

Hope this helps.

Let me know if you need further assistance.

Each MID Server should have an own installation folder.
The service name, that you provided during installation, should also be unique.

If this is al correctly done, you're probably only missing the windows services.
Maybe you can run the installer.bat again as suggested here:
