Multiple instances of web app

Targets Web
1

in addition to the documentation, I read some things here in the forum, but I don’t understand if, for a web application, I can run multiple instances of the same build on different ports.

or if I have to compile multiple times, with different application identifier.

Can anyone clarify?
I apologize in advance in case I have missed other clarifying discussions on this topic.

Yes you can. This is how Lifeboat will launch the number of instances you ask it to.

You can user the --port= or --secureport= command line parameters to launch each instance to be listening to a different port.
It’s going to be the same executable file, you compile once.

Try reading the WebApplication help page.

thank you.

so it is not necessary for each instance to have a different ApplicationIdentifier which was set in the IDE?

i.e.
can my webapp “MyApp” (with ApplicationIdentifier “com.example.myapp”) be compiled once and run on different ports at the same time?
MyApp --port=9000
MyApp --port=9001
etc

both separately and in load balancing under nginx, without concern of conflicts or other problems?

Yes @Giacomo_Bernardi, that’s fine.
