Hi,

I had a discourse like “app” container.  
I want to install another discourse. How could I config **other container name** for the **second one**?

This is the multisite guide:

> warning While multisite is supported in the Discourse application, this is an advanced sysadmin setup. If you don’t know what you’re doing, do not set up multisite. The Discourse team is unable to provide multisite configuration support. If you wish to host multiple domains on a singled Docker setup, you’ll need a multisite configuration. Here are the basic building blocks for one. Understand hooks Multisite is a fairly advanced topic. Before attempting a multisite build, spend some time…

Well, multisite seems so complex and not ready for support from team.  
Could I install **2 separated docker** for **2 separated discourse site** in the same server?

For example:

1. app.yml
2. app02.yml

Well, it’s complex..You’ll need a reverse proxy. You can have a look at [Running other websites on the same machine as Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/running-other-websites-on-the-same-machine-as-discourse/17247). I believe that there are a few others as well.
