Hello,
Is it possible to run an instance of both the LIVE and TEST clients simultaneously? If so, how would I go about setting that up? I already have them installed on separate directories locally.
Thanks, Michael J
Just make sure you have two separate .ini files in the system folder with different computer names.
Regards,
MJ

Our master .ini's in our respective LIVE and TEST Tessitura shares do not include a workstation name. And all the local clients connect to the same share so I'm not sure how that would work.
First create a bogus name for the user in TX_MACHINE_LOCATION. I do this in both live and test so that when I copy live to test I won’t have to keep re-doing it in the test system. Next, open the test .ini file. Create a new line in the file like this:
Hostname = gloses
Use the name you created in the first step.
Hope that helps!
Gloria

I am currently trying to accomplish this and I took the steps listed below: created a dummy machine name in TX_MACHINE_LOCATION in the TEST client then added a line to the Tessitura_Test.ini file that said HOSTNAME=<the dummy machine name>. I am still getting the error "Tessitura is already running for this hostname. It cannot be started more than once per hostname. [impresario.af_register_application_instance.13]"
Can anyone tell me what I am missing?
Thanks,
Ashley
YOu have to point the target of the shortcut for the test instance to that ini file so something like - I:\Startup\Impresario\Tessitura_Start.bat C:\Users\lxxx\WINDOWS\tessitura2.ini (location of the second ini file)
We have this setup similarly but in the LIVE client and LIVE .ini file. You will also need to assign a location in TX_MACHINE_LOCATION for the dummy account if you haven't done so already.
It appears to be point to the file I edited
T:\Startup\Tessitura_Test_start.bat "c:\tessitura_test.ini"
I didn't create a new tessitura_test.ini file - I just added the host name to that one that was there. Do you think that is my problem here? Is creating a new one the key?
For us, the file that I edited lives at the root of C:
I didn't make any changes to the master. I am looking to make this change for myself and one other coworker and not organization wide.
Thanks for your help!
Thanks. The location is assigned but I am still getting the "Tessitura is already running for this hostname. It cannot be started more than once per hostname. [impresario.af_register_application_instance.13]" error.
I have a ticket open. Hopefully it is something simple that I am just not seeing.
Take care,
Are you using quotes in the target? If so, try removing them as we work without quotes..
Thanks. I just tried removing the quotes with no success.
The first lines of my local Tessitura_test.ini file are:
[sqlca]MasterIniFilePath="\\fst\Tessitura\startup\tessitura_test_master.ini"
hostname = Tessitura1
My issue is SOLVED! I needed to move the hostname=<the dummy machine name> line to the [SQLCA] section of the .ini file. Here is the link.
Thank you everyone!! I hope me posting my trouble and solution helps someone else in the future.
Yay!
Lol! Totally didn't see this until after I posted my resolution. That was it ^^^ I had the host name line in the wrong spot.
Thank you!
