I've been working on adding -port= / -rpcport= command line / config file options to bitcoin. The idea is to let you run multiple copies of bitcoind on one machine; I need this because I'm planning on having at least two Bitcoin-related web services (the Bitcoin Faucet and a service to be named later), I want them to have completely separate wallets, but I don't want to rent multiple servers to host them.
Same here. I have managed to create 2 wallets and two instances of a bitcoin.conf.
both have a different rcport specified in the config (8332 and 8333)
I can start either one of them and it works fine, the web sites using the wallet can connect.
However.... If I start the second bitcoin instance (I'm on windows) the second process grows to about 6 Mb and then just dies.... So each of them wallets runs just fine alone but not together.
Is there any way I can debug to see what happened? I tried switching on options in the config (like noirc and the connect only to...) but it does not seem to make a difference.
Kind regards,
