How about 2 CiviCRM databases and 1 drupal the opposite of the questions below

Just need to do these so two departments can have their own separate databases (long story)
But they both use the same drupal website.
So it would just be another install of Civi that points to the same drupal installation?

Yes this is possible. I have 2.1 and trunk running on same drupal.

I have sites/civicrm and sites/civicrm21 and install whatever modules you require for specific site.

It should be
sites/www2.example1.com/civicrm.settings.php
sites/www2.example2.com/civicrm.settings.php

oh, so it is a multisite install with one settings.php for drupal.
I usually use this setup for all the sites but give them separate settings files.
Did you put a settings file in each or in sites/default only for drupal?

That’s correct.

It’s enough to put one Drupal settings.php file in sites/default – that’s the location that Drupal checks if it doesn’t find a more specific file in settings/$domain (this is true for civicrm.settings.php as well).
If you found the above helpful, please consider helping us in return – you can even steer CiviCRM’s future and help us extend CiviCRM in ways useful to you.
