Then run the installer script again. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/create-a-second-database#post-10581 Sun, 03 Oct 2010 19:36:54 +0000 msfbiz 10581@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Thanks for the reply.</p> <p>In order to create a second database, will it be automatically created when I install the second machform instance in another folder, without erasing the first database?</p> <p>Or do I need to create/duplicate the database manually? </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/create-a-second-database#post-10569 Thu, 30 Sep 2010 14:16:13 +0000 redityo 10569@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi Mike,</p> <p>Yes, you're right. You need to create second database for this. Then do the installation with second machform instance (folder). However, some files should be edited since it use same session name. Basically, you need to change this session name:</p> <pre><code>$_SESSION[&#39;logged_in&#39;]</code></pre> <p>into like this</p> <pre><code>$_SESSION[&#39;logged_in_b&#39;]</code></pre> <p>But if you can create a sub domain, I think it will be easier to do. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/create-a-second-database#post-10565 Wed, 29 Sep 2010 22:40:10 +0000 msfbiz 10565@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I'd like to install another instance of Machform on the same domain.</p> <p>The reason is that I want to have an outside person create his own form and use Machform to add and edit record entries without being to see the entries for the forms I've already created on my side.</p> <p>I believe a second database for the second instance should be created.</p> <p>Which files should I edit and how in order to achieve that purpose?</p> <p>Thanks!<br /> Mike </p>
