Issue on Uploading Two SOE to ArcGIS Server

Question

I need to upload two REST SOE to ArcGIS Server. They are technically same and I just copied second one from the first and renamed the project and built it but when I tried to upload the second SOE ArcGIS server Complained that so I tried to change some configurations at second SOE as 1- in Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs I changed [assembly: AssemblyTitle("GeometricNetworkUtility")] [assembly: AssemblyDescription("Geometric Network Utility")] [assembly: AddInPackage("ArcGIS.Soe.Rest.GeometricNetworkUtilitybyPhase", "f15446f6-4217-4c50-a970-078c0b64a20a", Author = " ", Company = " ", Description = "Geometric Network Utility", TargetProduct = "Server", TargetVersion = "10.4", Version = "1.3")]‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ To [assembly: AssemblyTitle("GeometricNetworkUtility2")] [assembly: AssemblyDescription("Geometric Network Utility 2")] [assembly: AddInPackage("ArcGIS.Soe.Rest.GeometricNetworkUtility2", "f15446f6-4217-4c50-a970-078c0b64a20a", Author = " ", Company = " ", Description = "Geometric Network Utility 2", TargetProduct = "Server", TargetVersion = "10.4", Version = "1.3")]‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ and in GeometricNetworkUtility.cs I changed the Description = "Geometric Network Utility", DisplayName = "Geometric Network Utility",‍‍ to Description = "Geometric Network Utility 2", DisplayName = "Geometric Network Utility 2",‍‍ but still after rebuilding the solution and uploading the new SOE I am getting the same error message. Can you please let me know how to solve this?

We've needed to do that same, having 3 code streams.

A way around this is to do the following:

* Change the SOE Project name
* Change the ServerObjectExtension display name in the main class, the class name, as well as the GUID
* Change the AddInPackage name and GUID

We successfully using the same SOE, with subtle differences, having changed the details aboe.

Also asked on GIS Stack Exchange. I still question the need to two identical SOEs.
