Hi,
we would like to run two different data server instaces on the same server. We are not able to install the second instance of the service.
We tried in this way:
sc create FlexmonsterDataServer38 binPath= "%~dp0flexmonster-data-server-38.exe flexmonster-config-38.json --service"
sc failure FlexmonsterDataServer38 actions= restart/60000/restart/60000/""/60000 reset= 86400
sc start FlexmonsterDataServer38
sc config FlexmonsterDataServer38 start=delayed-auto
and
sc create FlexmonsterDataServer38 binPath= "%~dp0flexmonster-data-server.exe flexmonster-config-38.json --service"
sc failure FlexmonsterDataServer38 actions= restart/60000/restart/60000/""/60000 reset= 86400
sc start FlexmonsterDataServer38
sc config FlexmonsterDataServer38 start=delayed-auto
In both cases the second serivce instance doesn't start. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Andrea

Hello, Andrea!
Thank you for contacting us.
Kindly note that to run multiple Flexmonster Data Server instances, you need to install them as services. In this case, the Admin Panel would be available only for the first one.
To run the service, please modify the command in service-install.bat file as follows:
sc create YourServiceName binPath= "%~dp0flexmonster-data-server.exe -s absolute path to flexmonster-config.json"
Please note that for each Data Server instance, you need to change the service name in .bat file and port number in the flexmonster-config.json.
Hope you will find our answer helpful.
Feel free to contact us in case of any other questions.
Kind regards,
Solomiia

Hello Solomiia thank for your answer, I tried to modify service-install.bat as you tell me, the new service is created but it doesn't start I attach the screenshot of the error. Another thing I've noted is that just changing the line you told me the orginal flexmonster service is deleted, I don't want it, so I've changed also the line above where the script try to delete existing services.
Do you have some advice?

Hello, Andrea!
Thank you for your swift response.
Our team hasn't managed to reproduce the described behavior on our side.
Could you please provide us with the .bat file you are running? This would help us greatly to continue the investigation.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hello, here it is our service-install.bat
⋅ February 9, 2023
Hello, Andrea!
Thank you for the attachments.
We have modified your .bat file, so now it creates the FlexmonsterDataServer38 process on our side. Please try the attached service-install-38.txt and let us know if it works on your side.
Kindly note that the port in flexmonster-config-38.json should be free white running the .bat file.
Hope you will find our answer helpful.
Looking forward to hearing your feedback.

Hello, I tried your service-install-38.bat but the result is always the same.
I tried to create the service without specifying the config file and it was created without problems. I think the problem is with the config file.
I attach a screenshot of the config file, if it could help you.
Have a good day,
Andrea

Hello, Andrea!
Thank you for your response and for the provided config file.
Our team assumes that port 9038, used in the config.json file, may be occupied by another process.
We also suggest running two Data Server .exe files separately to check the config file.
Hope it helps.
Do not hesitate to contact us in case of any other questions.

Hello Solomiia sorry for the late,
I made some test and now the service is starting and responding correctly only if I put one index in the config file, if I put two or more indexes I got the same error.
Do you have some advice?
Have a good day,
Andrea

What should it be?
