Thanks for the reply - and apologies for the inappropriate abbreviation. I get lazy and forget the broader context sometimes...

I've got the different instances untarred and running in the different folders (using the autostart.sh script). However, when I try to change the HTTP socket for the second and third instances, I get "HTTPService: error creating server socket: Address already in use". This seems to be persistent no matter the port specified. Stopping the instance running on HTTP 9790, and starting another using e.g. HTTP 9792 works.

Once I get these up and running I will tackle the autostart problem, and post whatever solution I concoct...

EDIT: additional info r.e. ports and running instances

To make this work, you need to select Close in MinimWatch to stop the MinimServer instance after changing the port number, then start the instance again using the autostart.sh script. Apologies for the previous misleading instructions.

Fantastic, thanks.
