Hi,
I want to set up two different Web Adaptors on one machine - one for ArcGIS Server and one for Portal for ArcGIS.
I work with version 10.2.2 on Windows Server 2008 R2
I installed first Web Adaptor and configured it's name for 'waportal'. Than configured it with Portal.
Then I tried to install Web Adaptor again - but I had no post-install set-up of Web Adaptor name. I had only options to Modify, Repair, Uninstall - non of those lead to name set-up.
I know that it's possible to have two different names - this is the help:
ArcGIS Web Adaptor (IIS) installation guide
Do you have any ideas how to set it up?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Tomasz,
I got same problem in Windows Server 2008 R2, however its working on windows 7, we can install webadaptor 2 times using same installer. WebAdaptor is web application act like reverse proxy, so the workaround for this issue is duplicate your existing webadaptor as second webadaptor.
here is the detail steps: (i assumed you used IIS and installed webadaptor on inepub/wwwroot/)
1. wa already installed, and you name it 'waportal' > don't register anything in here (portal or arcgis server)
2. go to c:/inetpub/wwwroot -> copy 'waportal' and paste on the same place c:/inetpub/wwroot/
by default second wa name is 'waportal copy'. rename it, for example 'waserver'
3. you have to convert 'waserver' as application. go to IIS Manager > in the left side expand Default Website > right click in waserver, choose convert to application
5. you have 2 wa right now. the first is waportal and the second is waserver.
a. register your portal on your waportal
go to http://yourhost/waportal/webadaptor/ > select portal for arcgis then follow the instruction
b. register your arcgis server on your waserver
go to http://yourhost/waserver/webadaptor/ > select arcgis for server then follow the instruction.
it's work for me,

Doesn't the web adaptor give you the option of a portal and a server in the post-install? Why do you want two installs of the web adaptor on one machine?
Yes, I have option to register portal and server but I suppose that the same Web Adaptor name doesn't allow me to federate server with Portal.
You might try renaming the .exe file and running it a 2nd time.
I'll try, but I expect that installer will detect installed Web Adaptor.
EDIT: In fact the installer behavior is the same - only options for Modify, Repair and Uninstall.
As far as I know ESRI doesn't allow you to register both. You can either install and register Portal for your Organization account, or you can register AGOL, so it may be a moot point in trying to set up both, unless you have two organizational accounts.
I asked about ArcGIS for Server and Portal for ArcGIS on two separate Web Adaptor names on one server. Not about AGOL:)

Amri,
Great workaround!
Some additions:
In step 3, I had to chose: ArcGISWebAdaptorAppPool as application pool.
Moreover, I had to copy permissions from waportal\WebAdaptor.config to waserver\WebAdaptor.config (there's additional account 'ArcGISWebAdaptorAppPool' which I couldn't find in system. This account must have permissions to this file to save configuration)
Thanks a lot.
this workaround is very much useful.
