Why not? Every time you run 'make test' (which you probably don't ;)
that happens. I used to run a test server on another port (you either
have to do that or run the server on another IP/virtual host) and it
worked fine. You give the config files to the daemons in the startup
script, and in the files you specify the location for the DB..
