Greetings,
Now, my question before i proceed, I might mess up with a working Koha instance, is how to set up environment variable correctly I've set up only KOHA_CONF = /etc/koha/sites/test1/koha-conf.xml but for PERL5LIB and KOHA_CRON_PATH, i'm not confident with /usr/share/koha/lib and /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs respectively.
You should notice in your apache configuration files that there is SetEnv KOHA_CONF=... SetEnv PERL5LIB=... And they differ for the two instances. That is why your two instances work. As for the cronjobs, I'll let someone else answer. I believe you can pass paths and such before calling the script. I just don't recall how off the top of my head. And lastly, tcohen was most definitely correct in not mixing instructions between a packages installation (.deb) and a tarball installation. Where the files end up configured differ, though if you are familiar enough with the files, you should be able to figure out the mapping between the two in your head. This, however, is not advised.
