Hi,
I am planning to write 2 web site applications (Domain names) selling 2 different services. I would like them to be hosted and deployed through one OFBiz instance/hot-deploy directory. Eg: www.AppOne.com www.AppTwo.com My question is: 1. Is this setup is possible ? 2. Is it possible for 2 host names to have 2 different IPs ? 3. Is it possible to manage their catalog/security in one instance of OFBiz? 4. I did see the multiple stores are supported by OFBiz but not the mall type stores. Could some one explain what is the difference between multiple stores and a mall type stores? Thank you Ram |
1. If I understand you correctly, there is no need to use hot deploy.
all the information and website is built in. you just need to load you data for your sites. 2. you can use apache httpd virtual hosts with apj to interface to one instance of ofbiz. 3. the catalog can be tied to the userlogin. Not sure it is what you have in mind. 4. leave that to someone else. Not sure what a Mall store is, compared to multiple stores. unless you are talking about a portal. my au wrote: > Hi, > > I am planning to write 2 web site applications (Domain names) selling 2 different services. > I would like them to be hosted and deployed through one OFBiz instance/hot-deploy directory. > Eg: > www.AppOne.com > www.AppTwo.com > > My question is: > > 1.

Thanks for the reply. I am newbie
The sites do not exist now. I would like to write them using OFBiz Framework. How can I deploy them. I thought of creating 2 components and applications in hot-deploy. 1. Is there a better way to do that? 2. What is apj? --- On Sat, 10/4/08, [hidden email] <[hidden email]> wrote: From: [hidden email] <[hidden email]> Subject: Re: multiple hot-deployment web site applications To: [hidden email] Date: Saturday, October 4, 2008, 6:24 PM 1.

In reply to this post by my au
In terms of mall type stores I understand that generally to mean
unrelated stores (ecommerce sites) running from one instance of OFBiz. So customers from mall A.com won't see products from mall B.com and importantly backend access will keep the orders and everything else separate as well. So to be clear OFBiz is not suited OOTB to host multiple separate malls from one instance. But it is relatively easy to host another domain/site from one instance of OFBiz that may target a slightly different market leveraging the same or similar products under a different brand, the reasoning's for this will be left to the marketing discussions but it's possible OOTB with OFBiz. So what is the association between AppOne.com and AppTwo.com? Are they separate companies? Just different branding same company? Do you want one backend database for both the domains? Do you allow someone registering on AppOne.com to access AppTwo.com? 1: Different catalogs can be used to publish different products with their own look and feel for the domains. Depends how much you want to customise as to whether you need 0, 1 or 2 hot deploy applications. 2: I think BJ was pointing you to ajp for this, which is a perfectly good suggestion. If you're not fronting with Apache or anything else I'm sure you can still do it with Tomcat but you'll have to dig a little deeper in to the OFBiz/Tomcat container to check that. 3: Not sure who "their" refers to?

I agree with Ray and BJ,
On point 3, I guess the answer is no. You will have to set separate instances as Ray as well explained.

Thanks again for your time.
If I am correctly understanding from Ray's comment, it is possible to setup 2 catalogs for say Cookies.com dvds.com and sell cookies through one site dvds through the another one. Where cookies.com customers can may buy dvds from dvds.com without registering again with dvds.com. It is possible for a single admin to be able to see and manage the catalog, sales, customer information for both the cookies.com and dvds.com from one admin account. If I am correctly understanding Jacques's and Ray's comment, it is NOT possible to have 2 seperate admin accounts (authorization) one for each cookies.com and dvds.com with 1 instance of OFBiz. 1. Am I right in my understanding Ray'sand Jacques's comment ? My other questions: 2. If there are door-to-door (affiliates) sales people for cookies.com, dvds.com, Is it possible to manage thier accounts online like seeing their sales, payment etc without seeing other affiliate's info ?

for the following, the Company must own both websites.
look at the ecommerce ad clone ecommerce. those are equivalent of you cookies, and dvd they use the same instance so thier login will tell them what they can see. Catalogs, can be assigned to a productstore, the productstore is connncted to the website. ecommerce and clone ecommerces web.xml websites assiments then tell ofbiz which productstore therefore what catalog can be used. you can assign parties to a productstore or a catalog have not used the affiliates. my au wrote: > Thanks again for your time. > > > If I am correctly understanding from Ray's comment, it is possible to setup 2 catalogs for say > Cookies.com > dvds.com > > and sell cookies through one site dvds through the another one.

Correct. Again as BJ mentioned the catalog manager application does provide some control level against admin logins so you can restrict access to a degree but the rest of the order, accounts, stock etc are not separated. > > 1.

Now I am getting little bit better picture. I made a mistake in my previous post.
1. cookies to be sold through cookies.com and dvds to be sold through dvds.com owned by a same owner. 2. cookies.com should not show dvds and vice-versa 3. And 2 separate catalogs for cookies.com and dvds.com 4. how "affiliate / partner" work in ofbiz Thanks again --- On Tue, 10/7/08, Ray <[hidden email]> wrote: From: Ray <[hidden email]> Subject: Re: multiple hot-deployment web site applications To: [hidden email] Date: Tuesday, October 7, 2008, 3:15 AM comments inline... my au wrote: > Thanks again for your time. > > > If I am correctly understanding from Ray's comment, it is possible to setup 2 catalogs for say > Cookies.com > dvds.com > > and sell cookies through one site dvds through the another one.

1. works
2. yes 3. yes 4. not much UI at this time, from david OFBiz handles affiliate tracking for visits and orders through the TrackingCode stuff in the Marketing Manager. There isn't really anything to automatically handle commissions. -David # Implemented a sample of affiliate commission calculation based on PartyRelationship from CUSTOMER to AFFILIATE of relationship type SALES_AFFILIATE. Note that the amounts are hardcoded in the service. (r 449224, 449628) and from https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/webtools/control/ArtifactInfo Entity: Affiliate Service: createAffiliate Service: sampleInvoiceAffiliateCommission Service: updateAffiliate this would show all screens services, if they were in the system. so a lot of work needs to be done. my au wrote: > Now I am getting little bit better picture.
