Install Traccar to a folder different from /opt/traccar

I would like to install 2 instances of Traccar on the same server.
I think changing the web port, the protocol ports and the database schema of the second instance is enough to avoid any interference between the two instances.

But how can I change the default installation folder?

You can just copy the folder and create a new systemd service config.

Can I simply create a copy of /etc/systemd/system/traccar.service as traccar2.service and change the contents to the below?

[Unit]
Description=traccar2
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
WorkingDirectory=/opt/traccar2
ExecStart=/opt/traccar2/jre/bin/java -jar tracker-server.jar conf/traccar.xml
SyslogIdentifier=traccar2
SuccessExitStatus=143

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

I don't see why not.

What I'm asking is if this is enough to make the copy of traccar work as a daemon that starts automatically on system reboot etc. like the original.

Should be enough.

gustavofarias are you managed to create working two instance on the same IP address?

1. I copied traccar directory from the first server and created directory called traccar2 and paste all files from traccar first server directory
   2.then I change the port in the config file to 8083
   3.then as Anton sad I change the traccar.service file and rename file to traccar2.service and just use the command service traccar2 start but server doesnt start, do I need something else to edit ?

You should probably share details about the errors that you get.

Anton sorry for taking your time and thank you for the answer, it was just a stupid mistake with permission files after I paste the files to the new directory.
I successfully ran three instances over one IP address.

Thank you.

followed all of the above steps, just to add, I changed my device ports from 5xxx to 6xxx on default xml . Created a new DB traccar2 on mysql . Changed web port to 8083. currently have 2 instances, working now for a few hours.
